After I finished the book I revisited the GOODREADS reviews and I found that I completely agreed with LARS' review, so here is a copy LARS' review: Perhaps not so great exegesis, but good theology nonetheless. The idea of the "Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil" is intriguing, even if his interpretation is taken a bit too far in its application. The motif is not a great theme of the Bible in the sense Boyd would have you believe, but his ideas about judging are quite valid nonetheless, and his concluding chapters are perhaps the most important. The book suffers from Boyd's commitment to explain things exhaustively. He uses way too many words, and there's too much repetition for a book of this genre. He could certainly learn something from his good friend Rob Bell in this respect. I could not have said it better. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
We human beings are burdened by our tendencies to harshly judge others and ourselves. Unfortunately for believers, this bent is as prevalent in the church as in the world. Pastor and author Gregory A. Boyd calls readers to a higher standard through understanding the true manner in which God views humanity: as infinitely worthwhile and lovable. Only an attitude shift in how we perceive ourselves in light of God's love can impact how we relate to people and transform our judgmental nature. Believers wrestling with the reality of God's love and Christians struggling with judging in the local church will appreciate this examination of how we move from a self-centered to a Christ-centered life.
