Click on the chapter 7 in the link above

And go to the Rachel Evans piece at http://www.abpnews.com and her evolutionary dalliance with Al Mohler.

And Rachel has a grand interview easily googled at Emerging Women Blog.

It certainly looks like Rachel Evans has a lot to say and she definitely has my interest! I checked out the Emerging Women blog and took a peak at the Evans interview. Evans is a smart woman with a good head on her shoulders. The questions she asks are interesting ones and I like the conclusions she adopts (or seemingly adopts) from what she mentions in her interview. Despite all the questions she asks, it's admirable to see that she's still a follower of God. Being somewhat skeptical about certain facets in life isn't a bad thing.

I'm definitely going to have to read this book. Thanks for sharing the information!

Jenny:

You are a breath of Fresh Air here in the Land of David Flick and Ed Pettibone.
I think you are gonna love the good souls and virtue of Haruo, Dave Roberts and Lamar Wadsworth here on this board as you get to know them.

As a companion piece to Monkey Town, grander deeper perspective, acquaint yourself with Marilynne Robinson's Absence of Mind, UK Guardian Review easily googled.

Grand stuff indeed.

Keep an eye on Lauri Lebo's pieces as well at www.religiondispatches.org . She may be doing something on Rachel fairly soon. We'll keep an eye out for it.
