Velvet Elvis, by Rob Bell
Brief: While I was fully prepared to loathe this one, after reading it, I was pleasantly surprised. Though the theology and scholarship are mediocre at best, it was... nice. Bell, to me, still feels pretty surface-y; however, I was not in the least offended. Comparing this, his earlier work, to Love Wins, it is sad to see the way he has become embittered toward the Church and orthodox teaching.
