The back take in of the book was folded and creased. I wasn’t real pleased because it was a birthday present.

Spot on review by Tim before me. Have A Small Faith is more vapid, having no effect, feel-excellent spiritual gobblygook from the master of huckster religious tripe. Most of Albom’s work is in a similar vein. All the guilt-free comfort of Oprah-ized religion lacking persons troubling responsibilities. If faith in just anything, as long as it is sincere, could provide salvation, than why, oh why, did the Lord Jesus Christ even bother to die for our sins? If what this hack sportswriter posits as truth were indeed right it would naturally follow that Christ was either a megalomaniac or a severely delusional man worthy of nothing more than pity. Certainly not the Son of God. As a Christian, Albom’s ‘all roads lead to the heaven’ approach is offensive. For faith in nothing is ultimately worth nothing. It has no intrinsic value in itself. Misplaced faith is treacherous. If you have ‘faith’ in a leaky boat and attempt to cross the Atlantic in it you will drown. Please people, reflect about the fallacy of the leader’s logic. I know that it soothes your consciences, but it is of no real value. Pick up your Bible with an open heart and mind and read the Word of God for yourself. You will see that Christ is worthy of our perfect trust in His atoning death for our sins. Pray to God for the scales to be lifted from your eyes as you read His Word. I do have a couple of suggestions that may help. Download some FREE recordings of Bible studies from Thru The Bible Radio website, or pick up a comprehensive Bible concordance and study scripture as though your soul depended on it. Steer clear of Have A Small Faith though. This kind of book only enriches its leader.

As an avowed atheist, I experience the occassional well-meant attempt to get me to judge in something. I’ve received several copies of the Book of Mormon, Mere Christianity, more Bibles than I can count, two Jesus and Buddha comparisons and even a lone copy of the terrible Left Behind series opener. Over the weekend a sweet friend gave me a copy of Have a Small Faith to attempt to gently win an previous argument we have had regarding my absolute dismissal of religion as deleritous to the human condition.
Despite my lack of faith, I will attempt to objectivly review this book. It is lukewarm pablum spoon fed to masses who have never been exposed to right profundity. This is The Pad of religiousity. Although I can’t agree with the reviewer who gave the book a loud one star for its treacherous premise of belief in anything being enough to deliver a soul, I do agree with his charge that this book is the Oprah-izing of religion and will up the anti by arguing its the mediocritizing of fiction. The rabbi is a flat character who fails to offer any promised wisdom and Albom’s narration is missing in inventiveness or beleivability.
I slogged through ths stinker to the very end, and I have to say it serveed to only deepen my resolve that faith blinds man to travesties like blowing fifteen dollars (including tax) on drivel. The reason I gave two stars is that I admit I might be overly harsh due to my lack of belief, so I am attempting to be kind by recognizing the occassionally humorous moment in the novel.

I did not ever read Tuesdays With Morrie, a book that has been described as “The bestselling memoir of all time.” I find that aver a small hard to judge, but I suppose that the eleven million copies in print may prove it right. From the pen of that same leader, Mitch Albom, now comes Have a Small Faith, a book that shot straight to the top of the New York Times list of bestsellers within days of its relief. Like its predecessor, this book is probably best-termed a memoir, a book that describes the impact of a pair of clergymen on the life of the leader.
The book starts with a request. An eighty-two year-ancient rabbi from Albom’s hometown questions if he will deliver his tribute. This leads Albom on a quest to learn enough about the man that he can deliver an effective tribute. This in turn draws him back to a consideration of the Jewish faith he had walked away from as a young adult. At the same time, near his new home in Detroit, he encounters a pastor who, despite a past in which he was a drug dealer and convict, is leading a ministry that serves the poor and destitute. The book alternates between these two worlds, between these two faiths and Albom’s attempts to get to know both of the men.
Have a Small Faith is a well-written and appealing book that has already been widely praised. The endorsements on the book’s take in range from Bob Dole to Bishop T.D. Jakes; from Rabbi Harold Kushner to Coach Tony Dungy. The book reflects the diversity of the endorsers, seeking to emphasize what unites these faiths and all others. It is a defense of the kind of faith that is so well loved today-a type of religious belief that de-emphasizes distinctives and plays up the importance of unity. It is a book about religion, about faith in all-purpose, more than it is a book about the Christian faith. Sorry to say but undoubtedly, it is a book that could easily comfort a person in a faith that excludes Jesus Christ. And in that way it is a book that misrepresents the Bible, for the Scriptures will not allow for such a faith. The Bible demands exclusivity, it demands that we know that Jesus Christ is the only way to the Father.
So I guess the irony in Have a Small Faith is that the unity Albom purports to find between all faiths is a unity that comes at the expense of at least one of persons faiths. It is a unity that cannot be sustained or supported by one who holds quick to the Bible. This is a book that makes for a quick and enjoyable read, but in its moral, its fantastic theme, it falls tragically flat. It tickles the ear of persons who read it, but does not strike straight to the fantastic truths of the Christian faith.
