Growing Up Church of Christ
Today's Price £13.53
An insightful look at life inside a conservative evangelical community-the Church of Christ.
Growing up in a big church in a small town, Mike S. Allen's thoughts and stories come from his unique perspective as the son of a famous preacher. Some of his memories are fond and some are, naturally, conflicted.
The narrative also includes sharing from dozens of other believers who talk about their experiences in a place where folks sometimes held strong, heaven-or-hell opinions about various doctrines.
Sprinkled with wit and wisdom, Growing Up Church of Christ is a memory book that eventually leads to a crossroad: remain in the church of one's youth or take strides in a different direction?
Reviews:
"A narrative with funny, poignant memories." -Kirkus Reviews
"Speaking as one who 'grew up Church of Christ, ' author Mike Allen has crafted a written time capsule that literally transported me back to childhood in a single evening. His superb collection of personal vignettes is delivered in a heartwarming and vulnerable style that taps into a wide range of emotions from laughter to tears - at times in but a single page. I read it in one sitting and enjoyed every minute." -Dr. Joe Alexander, associate dean of The Jack C. Massey Graduate School of Business, Belmont University
"In Growing Up Church of Christ, Mike Allen strikes a unique balance. He manages to give us a fun and nostalgic trip back to our youth, while at the same time provoking thought on some weighty matters." -Steve Lake, regional director of advancement, Harding University
