Velvet Elvis: Rob Bell
I need to approach this review somewhat apologetically. In my usual beligerent style I was a bit of a Rob Bell cynic. I don't like it when people are made flavour of the month- it just innately makes me uneasy. So I wanted to disagree with everything he said. But I can't. I loved this book. I loved that he has dug deep and retained a great integrity whilst unearthing and exposing some of the rubbish we have come to accept as true. If I'm honest I'm a little bit jealous. I long for the day when I might be able to study that deeply... I long t understand the context of the Bible as well as he does. It just brings the whole thing to life. Marvellous marvellous!
