Quote from Chapter 2:

We take the God of the Bible who is all-wise and all-powerful, and we trivialize him. We make him the "Self-help Genie." We re-create him in our minds as our "God-On-Demand" - someone who's "there" when we need him and stays out of the way the rest of the time. Instead of worshiping him and knowing him and growning into servants who want to understand his mission and follow him by faith, we carefully select Bible verses out of context that confirm our conclusion tht the real goal in life is for us to be happy. Instead of humbly recognizing that God is impossible to tame, dare to demand that he get busy and keep us comfortable.

::::::::::::::::::::

Preach on Chip!!!! Hits the nail on the head. I pray people will listen and open their eyes and see that we have a ton of false gospel preachers out there.

Please get to know God and not a man made god that is being preached today.

Guess not.

Well so far it is a really good book. Chip Ingram seems to not be afraid to tell it like it really is and not watered it down.

I starting Chapter 3

I am starting to read it and wondered what you all think about it.
