 unchristian November 12, 2008
Anyone who is interested in understanding how Christianity is viewed today will find the book "unchristian" a must read. As the authors state "agree or not we must come to terms with their impressions." The impressions are complex and difficult to navigate, but this book will give any person who cares or dares an opportunity to understand. How has the message of God's grace become hidden to so many today? Start searching for the answers by reading "unchristian."

There really isn't any new content in this book for any Christian who has read Barna in the last few years. The value present is in the way the authors organize it. Kinnaman and Lyons describe in detail how most Christians today are perceived by society as hypocritical, hyper-evangelistic, anti-homosexual, sheltered, overly political and judgmental. They then offer a few concluding thoughts as to how to change the perception for the better.
For someone who has never read any recent works by George Barna, this title may be worth the price. Otherwise, I'd recommend skipping it or borrowing it from a friend.
For the book, "Unchristian" November 1, 2008
This is a powerful book meant to educate those of us looking to help Christians evangelize in a more positive and meaningful way.
Thought-provoking October 30, 2008
Unchristian is a thought-provoking, valuable,intelligent, must-read for those Christians who have been in the church for a long time, in particular. I highly recommend it.
UnChristian by David Kinnamon October 28, 2008
UnChristian is a wake-up call to the typical church member who is wondering why their's church's congregation is dwindling and getting older. He uses factual observations to explain what church members are doing wrong and how we can reestablish a connection with the up and coming generations who will soon run society.
It is engaging and a quick read. He provides insight into the cultural phenomena of today's world.
