Blue Like Jazz: Nonreligious Thoughts on Christian Spirituality

Blue Like Jazz: Nonreligious Thoughts on Christian Spirituality
by: Donald Miller


Editorial Review:

I never liked jazz music because jazz music doesn't resolve. . . . I used to not like God because God didn't resolve. But that was before any of this happened. In Donald Miller's early years, he was vaguely familiar with a distant God. But when he came to know Jesus Christ, he pursued the Christian life with great zeal. Within a few years he had a successful ministry that ultimately left him feeling empty, burned out, and, once again, far away from God. In this intimate, soul-searching account, Miller describes his remarkable journey back to a culturally relevant, infinitely loving God.

Awesome buy!! Not only is the book good but I got it within days of my order and in perfect condition.

Blue Like Jazz:

I ordered 2 books which were supposed to be in excellent condition. One book was fine, the second book had a huge streak down the whole front cover. I was disappointed because I planned to give the book as a gift. It looked damaged.

Great read:

Great book. Not as much of a biography as I expected, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's like a memoir. Lot's of scattered thoughts, but all of the thoughts are so inspiring and intelligent. And so witty! I definitely recommend this book for anyone who has any doubts when it comes to faith.

I liked "Blue Like Jazz" very much, even when I did not agree:

"It comforts me to think that if we are created beings, the thing that created us would have to be greater than us , so much greater, in fact that we would not be able to understand it. It would have to be greater than the facts of our reality, and so it would seem to us, looking out from within our reality, that it would contradict reason. But reason itself would suggest it would have to be greater than our reality, or it would not be reasonable." --"Blue Like Jazz" page 201.
I truly liked the was... more info
