5.0

You'll want to buy this book instead of borrow it. I've referenced it more times than I can count.
This book is the culmination of Dr. Rosling's research and lived experience, and let me tell you, it is incredibly eye-opening, discussion-prompting, and paradigm-shifting.

An excellent collection of Christian authors. This book has introduced me to so many beautiful writings, which has sparked further study and reading.
The selections are thoughtful and the perfect length for a 15-minute reading and reflection session. I've read it slowly over the past few years; it's the perfect book to read through as you need.
My only critique would be the editors relied too heavily on British male authors. Only 16 out of the 52 readings were by female authors. The book would have been enriched by more diversity in authors such as writings from eastern Christian authors.
