Though I think N.T. Wright offers great ideas and intelligence, this book wasnt the typical Christian read for me. I found it to be a bit scholarly for lack of a better word. It definitely wasnt a book I couldnt put down as I found I had to motivate myself to pick it back up. There have been Christian authors that Ive struggled to read before, and its not to say I struggled with this book. But I did find myself reading the words without hearing them. In one ear out the other.

Perhaps I felt rushed because while reading this, the library emailed to say that several of the books I was waiting for became available to me and because there was a wait list, I couldnt check them out more than once. I admit I may not have given this book a fair chance. That being said, there are a lot of other Christian themed books that have really made an impression on me and Ive retained a lot from. So if you are a believer seeking wisdom on discipleship, dont let me sway you. Try this one for yourself.
