Review: I could not put this book down, and as soon as I finished it, I went right back to the beginning to read it again. I became a Christian at the age of 32, after a childhood not knowing anything about church , or Jesus. But the 12 years that I have been a Christian have not been straight forward, or easy, and I have often been beset by "but why?" questions and have had many doubts along the way. What I love about this book is that the author is not afraid to talk about his own doubts and I could relate to many of the things he wrote about. I felt as though he has opened my eyes, and taught me so much about Jesus, far more than I have learned going to church on a Sunday. I want to understand the man, Jesus, and this book has been the best thing that I have read on the topic. I loved the style of writing, yes it is deep and it is intellectual, and sometimes I needed to read something several times over, but I am now very keen to read all of the authors other books. I am so glad I found this book, and have been recommending it to all my friends, Christian or not.

Review: This is quite a dull book until you get to page 232 where it speaks about the missing God. There are times in a Christian's life when God seems absent. However, Philip Yancey says that God is not absent but in disguise as the poor, the stranger and the hungry. In other words, we need to turn our attention from what is missing in church to evangelism out in the world. This makes sense because we need to be outward looking as a church. When Jesus departed, he gave his disciples authority to take his place. When the joy of salvation and fellowship seems absent in the church, it is time to go out into the world and evangelise for lost souls. The gaping hole in our church life is that we need to focus more on outreach so that we can lead others to Christ.
