Read over a series of 8ish months. Absolutely stunning. Not an exaggeration to say that it has helped to shape my theology, spurred me on to further thinking, comforted me -- and distressed me -- in the best possible way. Because of the amount of time I spent slowly reading and rereading over it, I can't estimate the impact this book has had on me.

However, there are many sections that are very laborious to the point of the mundane. This book could've used serious editorial help, but is still wonderful. For that reason, though, I only give it 4 stars.

I am hopeful that his recent released book, "Faith Speaking Understanding," will be a more accessible, condensed version of this tremendously helpful book.
