The Book of God
Wednesday, February 28th, 2007
It won’t take us much longer to get through with Adam and His Kin, so if you are reading along with me (or want to start) it’s time to shop for our next book. I’ll be reading and talking about The Book of God by Walter Wangerin, Jr. next.
Please understand that when I pick a book for this site, I am not recommending it for it’s theology, but for it’s value in learning history. I won’t steer you in the direction of anything that is way off base theologically, and I will point out any problems I see as we go along, but the merit is in the historocity. Basically, in matters of faith consult the Bible. For more detailed study of history and culture than the Bible provides, choose an author who loves his/her subject.
I’ll be reading The Lives of Rachel by Joel Gross to go along with this part of our study, but will probably not discuss it in depth.
