Pastor Frank Honeycutt is courageous, honest, and sincere in telling us what it might be like to occupy a pulpit on a regular basis. We need more church leaders to be this open with us. This book gives the reader a fresh look at the task of living out a life of faith and sharing it with others. Although the book is aimed at preachers and church leaders, I found it to be a challenging and thought provoking boost to my own life as a lay member of a church. At times we all experience skeptical thoughts about God and go searching for answers. Pastor Honeycutt embraces questions, doubts,fears, and even ridicule, and is able to offer insight that is rare and helpful in a world filled with many pat answers to difficult questions. More churches need to offer opportunities for dialogs like those found and written about in this book. Howard in State College, PA

First of all the disclaimers...the author is my pastor & I was a member of one of the groups...Having said that it's a nifty thought provoking book...it relates the author's attempts to minister to two groups of people,skeptics ( Honeycutt gathered an extrodinary crosssection of skeptics/nonbelievers etc. who for as brief time attended,ahem,faithfully ) & also gathered a group of seekers to listen to the included sermons & then provide feedback. The sermons are above average & the insights gleaned are thought provoking to say the least. If you think it may be too dry,think again. Afterall the man quotes from KINKY FRIEDMAN for God's sake ( & ours)...Try it.
