Title: The Compact Guide to World Religions by Dean C. Halverson ISBN: 1-55661-704-6 Publisher: Bethany House Pub. Date: March, 1996 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $12.99 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.54 (13 reviews)
Rating: 3
Summary: Good basic comparisons but too much Christian pontification.
Comment: The book gives the basic facts but the buyer should be warned that the religions of the world are all bounced off the Christian perspective. You should know this is coming lest you set yourself up thinking you'll be getting objectivity.
Rating: 5
Summary: Insightful, very helpful, and highly recommended
Comment: The Compact Guide to World Religions has a very simple format yet it says a lot in a few pages. It goes through the major world religions, gathering the expertise from a number of qualified Christians. I have spoken to adherents from all of the faiths that are talked about in this book, and I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with the information the writers were able to give with an average of only 20 pages for each religion. I especially liked the "answering the objections" sections, with practical advice on how to effectively communicate with these groups. If you are a Christian who would like to better understand the religions of the world, I highly recommend this book!
Rating: 4
Summary: Good basic overview
Comment: I use this book as one of the texts in a class that I teach on World Religions, Cults, and Christianity - Building a Bridge to the Lost. The evangelical nature of the book is an excellent tool for classroom discussion. It also summarizes the major world religions without being too "in depth" for the beginning student, nor too "shallow" for a more advanced student.
