5.0 out of 5 stars
Funny, Thoughtful, Provocative, and Enlightening,
By Kern D. Kimbleton (Washington DC Metro Area) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Gravedigger File: Papers on the Subversion of the Modern Church (Paperback)
Os Guinness, in this work, presents the Church in America and the problems that beset it. All written in a series of communiques from the enemy "Directorate." It has the same feel of The Screwtape Letters, and a fascinating idea of the way of the "Third Fool" as being the way to break through the present-day irrelevance, bickering, factionalism, marketing, and paranoia that are strangling the lifeblood out of the Church in America. In light of the events of 9/11/01, these suggestions become even more vital, as the Church must get serious about proving and providing a steady, Rock-like foundation amidst the fear and doubt.

This review is from: The Gravedigger File: Papers on the Subversion of the Modern Church (Paperback)
Guinness here put me on guard as to how much my faith is modified by my culture rather than the other way around. Written somewhat like CS Lewis' The Screwtape Letters, Guinness gives us subversive letters and communiqués from the enemy Directorate. It is a great conspiracy story-and way too true to real life (the life of the church).
