Beskrivelse
This is a stimulating and provocative work. The writer has dipped his pen in an acid which smarts when applied, but its application is always in love and with goodwill. Abundant humor and laughter enable the reader to see himself in a mirror. The preacher under this treatment will benefit and be enriched morally and spiritually. Because the preacher is prone to tell others how to live, this book should bring a searchlight upon his own soul. Here is a plumbline of judgment and a method of self-scrutiny. The message is for the still hour and the chambers of imagery wherein the pastor dwells.The author's style is lively and colorful. It moves swiftly and keeps one interested and intrigued. The stab and thrust of truth comes to the conscience. Occasionally there are lapses into slang, but possibly the author intends this in satirical vein? Throughout, the provocative element is well expressed, and in his own way he reveals much of what he has felt and experienced. In self reference he is free from egotism. This is good. No one will accuse him of being pharisaical or holier-than-thou.Periodically, ministers need to read a book of this kind 'to see himself as others see him.' Let it be read then with open mind and obedient heart in the sight of the Lord!
