Review: Four Letter Words

Four Letter Words: Conversations on Faith's Beauty and Logic by Bill Giovannetti
Genre: Biblical Counseling 
ISBN: 9780983681267
Published: November 15th 2011 by Endurant Press
Rating: 5

I really liked this book. It was very blunt, unafraid of offending people. It's short, and is the kind of book I would read through in a day, and then keep for reference whenever I wondered about something.

Each chapter is about a different controversial four letter word: And I don't mean swear words, I mean words like "Pain," "Wait," "Evil," and "Hope." Each short chapter references many Bible verses, gets straight to the point, and doesn't sugar-coat anything.

I like blunt books. I think we as Christians need blunt books, because some books are way too soft on us. (but that's a post for a different day)

Content/Recommendation: One of the chapters is called "Damn," and it's about hell. There's also a chapter about sex. Ages 14+
