I've not given up on God's Not Dead entirely, & I might well get back to it one day, but as I read it became increasingly obvious that this isn't what I needed to be reading. I was reminded over & over again of an exhortation from the Cursillo Movement, "Don't just read good books. Read the best." God's Not Dead might be a good book, but right now I'm not being called to argue with vicious atheists, I'm much more drawn to parochial life, to reaching those who are churched but who do not have a personal relationship with Jesus the Christ, those whose lives are not transformed by the joy of the Gospel.
