Review: Things That Go Bump in the Church: Explaining the Bible's Most Misunderstood Teachings


Things That Go Bump in the Church: Explaining the Bible's Most Misunderstood Teachings
Things That Go Bump in the Church: Explaining the Bible's Most Misunderstood Teachings by Mike Abendroth

My rating: 2 of 5 stars



I read the first half of this pretty closely, and then skipped to the final chapter to see what he the authors had to say about homosexuality. Yeah. OK. I'm done.

Generally, they hew very close to biblical tradition. There's no exegesis, and very damn little historical context. But it's tempting, oh so tempting, to want to toe their party line. It's a pretty little tune, but ultimately full of ugliness.
