Yes. In fact, that's one of my all-time favorite books. I've read it four or five times, and I think EVERYONE here should read it at some point. Sooner rather than later.

I don't remember Charlie Peacock being involved, though there is a chapter about Flannery.

I read it, but since I'm not familiar with almost all of the pop culture stuff he was talking about, most of it made no sense.  I wondered if he was looking into some of these things to much.

Fun facts about Chuck Norris:

Newton's Third Law is wrong: Although it states that for each action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, there is no force equal in reaction to a Chuck Norris roundhouse kick.

Chuck Norris can divide by zero.

Chuck Norris CAN believe it's not butter.

This might be a valid criticism, though, as someone who has read the thing many times, I never got that impression.

Remember any specifics?

soo... this has been out for a while then...
my press releases are way behind...

ok, here's what it looks like to me...
they're having some get together and discussion of this book soon . . .
and it's at Charlie Peacock's house...

there's the connection...

also, since we are talking about Charlie, or at least i am. . .
word is he just signed on as a contributing editor at CCM magazine...

interesting indeed...

peace . . .
love . . .

Charlie Peacock! The guy who produced Switchfoot albums and whose fingerprint is on the cover of New Way to Be Human...

Back to the topic at hand.. So what's the book about exactly?
