God never changes, nor do the central truths of Christianity. But our understanding of those truths is in constant flux. Christians will always be exploring and discovering what it means to live in harmony with God and each other. Now in softcover, Velvet Elvis offers original and refreshingly personal perspectives on what Christianity is really about.

Inspiring to Tear driping to a smile on your face

Velvet Elvis by Rob Bell, has to be one of the greatest inspiring books that can even teach a Christian who is strong in His walk. Velvet Elvis by Rob Bell, first goes into asking God questions is a good thing, as when we ask God questions we find answers, and those answers helps us to grow in the Lord. Rob Bell goes into talking about Gods' creation and how the Lord wants us to use it. The best section in this book is about the Jewish history of Jesus Christ. This section of the book really got me to be in awe of our Lord Jesus Christ.
There are seven topics in this books that Rob goes into. He calls them movements. Velvet Elvis, has brought me into a new understanding of passion. I've been a born again Christian for three years with a fire and this book just kept my flame going if not made it go higher.
I recommend this book for any Christian of any age, in fact get two copy's of this book one to keep and one to pass on. This is a book that will change your walk for ever, and even put you in tears of how beautiful our God is. Your Pastor would even enjoy and get inspired by Velvet Elvis by Rob Bell.
This is a spirit filled book, and I look forward to reading more by Rob Bell.

Back to the basics

It is so refreshing to read of someone dealing with the basics of our faith and attempting to practice what he preaches.

Christianity is claimed by so many, yet few actually do what Jesus taught or try to live as the Bible teaches. Thought provoking and easy to read, a must read for all thinking Christ followers.

Intelligent

This is the most intelligent book on Christianity that I can recall having read in years. The old "painting" that hung on your parents wall (the "velvet Elvis") was fashionable in its day, but now is viewed as a cliché by today's generation who would never hang that picture in their living room. The challenge for today's church is to take the never changing good news of Jesus Christ, and present it in a way that can be understood and appeal to the people of today (paint a new painting). The Christian message remains unchanged, only the art work hanging on the wall is appreciated as relevant.
