I read “The Furious Longing of God”…
Sadly, I wouldn’t really label this a must read. It was a short book, with an intent to motivate us to really appreciate the depth and intensity of God’s love. Brennan Manning is very well respected, and he should be, but I just didn’t really get this book. I appreciated some of the “story” parts of the book, but other than that I was sort of lost.
Many many seem to love it. I guess I am in the minority!
Also, I could have done without the overly verbose and mystical style. Maybe I am too simple minded, but it just seemed that he could have come down to earth a little.
