Book Reviews of Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith

Book Review: Deep, Thoughtful, and Very Refreshing
Summary: 5 Stars

Rob Bell presents a view of Christ that anyone would be attracted to. His explanation of contemporary Jewish customs and beliefs adds clarity to much of what Jesus said and did. The book challenges your thinking and asks Christians if they are following Christ because they are convinced that it is the best way to live.

Bell gives a fresh take on many key Biblical stories and doctrines, such as Jesus as "Rabbi," bringing Heaven (or Hell) to Earth by our lives, the value of Christian community in collectively interpreting Scripture (which he calls binding and loosing), etc. A very good read. You will learn a lot, think a lot, and be a better Christian after reading this book.

Summary of Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith

We know there's something more. We sense it, we feel it, we know it. And we want it. We want an authentic spirituality.
