Theologically, I really found this book moving- particularly the final chapter. Borg has a gift at laying out profound theological arguments in ways that make sense to the lay person. However, Borg is a much stronger writer of nonfiction than fiction. I would be curious to see how Borg develops as a fiction writer if he chooses to do so.
