I read this book a couple months ago so its not very fresh in my mind, but certain aspects really stuck out to me. Some i enjoyed and found deeply edifying and some i am just not too sure of. When the "Holy Spirit" took Mack out to the garden and spoke of the order within the chaos, i was blown away. i also enjoyed Jesus' and Mack's discussion on the dock as they gazed at the stars. One problem i did have was of the portrayal of "Papa", or God. I felt as if the Father was shown as semi-holy and semi-sovereign. I undsterstand that in the book He was revealing Himself in an unfamiliar way to the main character because of preconcieved ideas and issues with his own earthly father, but this God seemed a little too new age for me.
I would recommend this book to those who strong in their Christian faith. As a witnessing tool, i would recommend getting a book thats a requires a little less room for interpretation.
THE PILGRIM'S PROGRESS IN MODERN ENGLISH is one good example. View All Music And Book Reviews By L7 | View L7's Profile
