This book was very difficult for me to finish as someone who wasn't raised religious. Much of my personal experience with religious folks in the US has made me uninterested in any religion at all.
Pavlovitz writes about people being good to one another. That the religion we hear people speak of very loudly doesn't really mirror the source material they claim to quote.
This book is primarily targeted towards Christian or Christian-adjacent folks in the US who feel disillusioned or disappointed with their church. If that's you, consider giving this book a read. As someone who was never religious to begin with, this book has already transformed the way I think about interacting with people and encouraged me to find a loving community. I just don't know what there is to argue with in here.
