This is wonderful stuff. Anecdotes about the author's life and thoughts, sprinkled liberally with dry humour, and very well written. Topics covered (from a Christian perspective) include general attitudes, leadership, decisions, faith... each section has several brief essays.

I found them all interesting, and mostly thought-provoking. Jeff Lucas thinks in ways that resonated again and again; he expresses ideas and beliefs that are far too rarely expressed aloud. Perhaps we're afraid that others will judge us if we admit to boredom, frustrations, wandering minds and irritations when in church services. Or perhaps we're too busy judging others.

I borrowed this book when I had finished the first 'Lucas on Life', and have read a few pages every day for a couple of months. Very highly recommended - and I hope to get hold of more of the same. ( )

Realistic stuff about the failings of christians and the problems of the ministry, with a few encouraging stories of the apparent activity of God.
Particularly striking was the chapter about his experience of credibility fatigue. A special challenge for someone who'se life is given over to serving the unseen. ( )
