review 1: Seems like I'm reading a lot of books about the church these days! In "The Courage to Be Protestant," David Wells challenges contemporary Christians to reconsider what is the church, whose is the church, and how is the church grown. In a culture where, in many cases, the local church has become just another business entity, competing for the time, loyalty, and dollars of consumers in the marketplace, this is a clear call to biblical Christianity. I was both challenged and greatly encouraged by "The Courage to Be Protestant."
review 2: I received this book last year from a dear friend from my seminary days and found it quite outstanding. Apparently this is a condensation of Wells’ previous books with some updating and adaptation. Wells is a gifted writer and l... moreucid thinker who demonstrates an amazing grasp of contemporary evangelicalism. I was disappointed with a few of his conclusions simply because I felt like some of the problems Wells addressed flowed from their repudiation of separation both ecclesiastical and personal — perhaps I will share my thoughts on that another time. By and large it was an outstanding read. I now own his other four books and plan on reading them soon. Thanks for the book Curt. less
