- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5This was an interesting book. Each chapter was a story about a person and their views of God and money. Zacharias uses caricature names for each of the people, "The Mayor", "The Redhead", "The Marine" and I found it really bothered me. I mean these are real people and real stories and the labels deterred from the reading. I would have been fine if she'd made up names and had a footnote mentioning the names were changed for privacy or something. Odd sidenote, but really it affected the way the book read.
The reading otherwise was decent, potentially interesting stories if there was more detail given. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Karen’s new book is a collection of short introductions, mostly anonymous personas such as “The Bookseller” or “The Grill Man.” Some are inspirational in the way they spread kindness with their lives and/or money, while others are downright sickening in their greed or coercion through a prosperity gospel. Think TV evangelists who promise that if you send your $100 now, today, God will bless you by returning far more. The book is sometimes heartwarming, sometimes disturbing.Karen writes with wit and passion. She’s opinionated and direct, and she gets on her high horse a bit as she exposes The Secret as utter hogwash, money-grubbing TV evangelism as downright fraud, and Bernie Madoff as the embodiment of evil. But she’s serious about learning from the example of Jesus, and I dare say she has Jesus on her side. That is, if Jesus' teachings about money and its use are to be taken seriously.Worth reading!
