I didn’t like it. I was the cranky one in my ladies bible study—I was always countering the statements in the book and trying to get the other women to open their eyes. Of course, they assured me they knew it was just fiction, but some of them just loved it. Guess I’m a hard realist, and I thought from the beginning the book was a deliberate attempt to mislead Christians or those who are seeking spiritual growth.
We definitely have to be on our guard; using wisdom and discernment to see if things are of God or not.
I was curious about this book. It is scheduled for our next month’s (ELCA) church book club selection.
