Is that a Spong book? I haven't read it yet but I mean to (actually, I haven't read any Spong yet, though it's definitely among my plans for the summer ). Have you read Borg's Reading the Bible Again for the First Time? I found that an excellent overview of modern biblical scholarship and a great read. I think it's my favorite Borg book so far.

Hey McKenna,

 

Yes it is Spong... I havent read that Borg book... But I have read Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time... and I am reading it again...

 

I am really enjoying the Spong book... It actually makes me laugh at my old self... How I tried to convince people of the literalness of the bible... WOW I was a pompous a$$... lol

 

Peace & Love

Glad to hear you're enjoying it! I'll have to check it out. Would you recommend Meeting Jesus Again, too?

Yes I would recommend "Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time" as well...

I recently read Marcus Borg's latest book, 'Jesus'. If you liked his 'Meeting Jesus' book, I highly recommend this one.
