If you haven't read this book (and I'm guessing you haven't) you should. I am not sure how you'll receive it, but you should still read it. I don't read. When I do read, it's in two or three book "sprints" that leave me exhausted. Michele got me "Lone Survivor" for Christmas and I read that. It was hard reading, not because it was technically difficult, it was hard because I felt like crying the whole time. Fresh off my success with one ENTIRE book read, I started this one and just finished it today.
It is basically entirely foreign, intensely convicting, capable of leaving one feel deeply ashamed, and yet left me more encouraged about certain aspects of life than I have been in a long time. If there was ever a ("defense" doesn't sound right, maybe "argument in support of"?) home schooling/worship re-thinking/church re-organizing, this is it. Or at least this is the one that says a lot of what I think in a much better way than I ever could.
Seriously, read it. I'm sure you'll disagree, but I need to know why. Chapter 3 was REALLY hard to read because I've completely blown it there. The rest aren't much easier, but they're a good blueprint. Family worship time? Why don't we have family worship time? Segregated church service? Why exactly do we have that? (Besides the fact children, mine in particular, are largely undisciplined)
