Hilarious!

Great book. As you laugh hysterically you are truly humbled by the sad truth of it all.

It's Funny Because It's True

This little book packs a punch. The author helps you to know what to do to be an effective Christian by pretending to tell you how to be a bad Christian. It is not surprising that Adrian Plass wrote the foreword, because it is very much in the style of his writing.Here are some snippets which I enjoyed:On the page where you would usually find acknowledgments or a dedication, you will read instead"An ineffective Christian never remembers to thank anyone under any circumstances. Might as well learn that before you begin this book."Habit 1: Dichotomize Your Life. Truly ineffective Christians apportion their lives into secular and sacred components.Habit 2: Make tolerance your god. Accept anything and everything. All viewpoints are not only valid but also equal.Habit 20: Seek the quick, self-help solution. Look for easy answers. Trust your instincts.Habit 22: Make music the big issue. Base your musical taste only on style. He even includes a hymn:Come, thou Fount of every blessingGive me what I want today.Entertainment never ceasingPaths of comfort line my way.Lots of fun, but also much to chew on in this little gem.

one of the best life application books i have ever read

Fabry knows exactly how to present the problems with today's "lukewarm christians" and then how to advise you on how not to be one.
