Disquiet Time
Rants and Reflections on the Good Book by the Skeptical, the Faithful, and a Few Scoundrels
Short review: An unique devotional written by a wide variety of authors focusing on how the bible and/or Christianity can be disquieting. The quality of the writing is pretty good and for a book written by nearly 40 authors, it is pretty even. Topically it is all over the place. Amy Julia Becker (blogger at CT and author) talks about how we all cherry pick verses. Karen Swallow Prior (English Professor and author) writes about how our modern translations tend to leave out or obscure all of the sh*t in scripture. Caryn Rivadeneira (church staff and author) talks about the scandal of being made in God's image. But the general idea is that scripture and Christianity in general isn't designed to make us feel good and there are lots of time when it pricks us.
