content: I really WANTED to like this book. Being aware of the sacramental nature of our life in Christ is something I've spent a lot of time thinking about. Unfortunately, this book feels "off", slightly tainted with an overemphasis on story and a lack of appreciation for solid truth. Yes, the story of Jesus matters, and people's individual stories matter...but they don't matter more than or at the expense of the truth of the creeds. Both are necessary, and unfortunately the Vogels seem to have forgotten that.
