review 1: Solid read. A little dense at times but Horton provides a clear and in-depth look at the issues with the modern Christian Church and indeed the modern "Christian" in America - and there are many. It's an eye opening and somewhat depressing read, especially if you ARE a committed Christian, because it makes you realize that in a big way, the big-C Church is failing its followers; failing to live up to its mission of helping the lost and un-churched find Christ, while at the same time helping those who are already in Christ to become more sanctified. Thus fewer people than ever are attending weekly Church services, increasingly more "Christians" are Biblically ignorant, and as a result our culture is becoming awash with mixed up theology and mediocre moral (Biblical) conv... moreictions. Horton argues this is what is leading to the degradation of our society as fewer and fewer individuals are turning to the Church - and indeed Christ - for healing and moral guidance.Highly recommended read for anyone who has experienced a sense of lostness or bewilderment while sitting in the pews of your church, or for anyone else wanting to know how to reclaim Church for what it was originally and Biblically intended to be.
review 2: I wholeheartedly believe with this statement, that Christians have always had their differences, but never in church history have there been so many statistics indicating that many Christians today are practicing what can only be described by Michael Horton in his book "Christless Christianity." Christless Christianity guides the reader to a greater understanding of a big problem within the American religious setting, namely the creeping fog of countless sermons in churches across the country that focus on moralistic concerns and personal transformation rather than the theology of the cross. less

Good... Like an elementary school concert, it could have been half as long without losing thing.

Not too far in but so far powerful and much needed wake up call to the American church.
