 I keep trying to figure out why I am so upset with this book. I think it comes down to that I believe it is *harmful.* Ironically, I believe that it is inhibiting the work of God by proclaiming to do the opposite. This author has far too much prejudice to be taken seriously. I do not believe him to be a digital native. There are whole chunks of this book that would be better worked out with a therapist than with a reader.
