Letters from a Skeptic: A Son Wrestles With His Father's Questions About Christianity Audiobook

" I took my time with this book since it is deep and a lot to think about. It dragged a bit in the middle for me but mostly I really thought it was good. The dialog between father and son helped answer many of my own questions about faith. I own this if anyone wants to borrow it. "

" I know that Greg Boyd is controversial and there is one particular part of this book that I totally disagreed with BUT it clarified a lot for me and was well worth the time to read. "

" Nice sentiment between son and father however the reasoning and theology are seriously flawed. I do not recommend at all. "

" I cannot say enough good things about this book. It answered a lot questions I've had and provides great insight in a straight forward and honest manner. "

" Informative, inspiring, helpful. Offers some satisfying answers to some of the toughest questions re: the Christian faith. "

" Completely unconvincing to someone with a basic understanding of logic and the scientific method. "

" a lighter, more tangible version of The Case for Christ or Mere Christianity. Not as insightful or intellectual, but still thought-provoking "

" Overall an enjoyable read and a good opening point for discussion. However, the theology is rather shaky at times, so be prepared before going in. "

" My first foray into Boyd's writings. Very readable book, something you can pick up and put down a few times without losing the flow. I need to go back and review it again soon. Boyd has some interesting takes on some theological questions. "

" This is a fantastic book on apologetics. It's a series of letters written between Greg Boyd and his father, Edward. They ask honest questions that most of us have probably wondered, but been to ashamed or inarticulate to ask. A great intellectual read. "

" Letters between a professor of theology and his father, dealing with objections to Christianity. Very well explained. "

" A good intoduction to Christian apologetics through the eyes of a father/son conversation. The book provides significant content on Christian theology without being too overbearing. Good thought provoker and conversation piece for introducing people to Christianity. "

" A must read for all skeptics and cynics. "

" I found some new insights into ancient culture I had never heard before. "

" This is a great book, although his "open" view of God is in evidence, so read with discernment! "

" Great book that raises tough questions about christianity. "

" Great read for new believers, old believers or nonbelievers. This book addresses many of the major issue people have with Christianity and I would gladly pass along (and have) to anyone. "

" Although I disagree with his open theistic approach, the apologetic portion of the book was great. "

" A book that well addresses the issues pertinent to a skeptic. The personal touch of the relationship between father and son was an added delight to follow. "

" Son (Christian) proposes to father (skeptic) that they share their ideas about faith and the conversation begins. Dad pulls no punches. Son has GREAT ANSWERS. Dad finally says 'that makes sense.' If you have questions as I did, listen to this father/son discussion. RECOMMENDED! "

" answers a lot of questions one might have on christianity. "

" This was a thought provoking, interesting read. I didn't agree with all of the authors theology but still enjoyed reading the book. "

" This book is great! I loved the dialogue. "

" Boyd's other books are better. He doesn't have as much solid reasoning in this book, and his points are better expressed by other Christian authors. "

" Give this book to anyone who wants to have basic answers answered about God. "

" Completely unconvincing to someone with a basic understanding of logic and the scientific method. "

" Great read for new believers, old believers or nonbelievers. This book addresses many of the major issue people have with Christianity and I would gladly pass along (and have) to anyone. "

" Great dialogue on theology, apologetics, and exploring who God truly is. "

" A book to read once in a while just to make sure you don't forget what faith is all about. "
