A friend of mine heartily recommended this book to me, and I am very glad that I followed his advice. It was encouraging to read a book that has a Christ-centric focus and delves into the similarities between various Christian denominations, rather than the differences. I found it to be an enlightening book, both spiritually and academically, and was encouraged by the loving challenge to move beyond the artificial barriers of denominations and walk the path where the focus of my faith is Jesus and His call to love one another, rather than the dogma of any particular church.
