Deliver Us from Me-Ville by David A. ZimmermanMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
The book was OK. I read it over time so I am sure that helped in losing something in translation. It is a look at us. We tend to put ourselves on the throne and move Jesus off. When we do that, then we are in Me-Ville. The object of the book is to get us out of there and on the way to Thee-Ville
Part of the problem with the book is that I kept feeling that the author was trying to paraphrase what other people had written. In other words, the book, though original, was not an original thought but an explnation of what others have written. He seems to quote Bronhoffer a lot. While he was an interesting man from what I have read about him, I might just read his books and skip this one.
Last chapter I felt was the best. But what can I say.
Recomend for my Christian friends. Not sure others would want to read it.
