I like Willimon because he talks about God as more complex, not a God of easy answers. The one Bible story he analyzed in this volume, the book of Job, is a prime example under Willimon's analysis. The rest of the stories he looks at are not from the Bible -- he looks at what ten writers ranging from Homer to Flannery O'Connor (and many other diverse writers) have to say about the human condition and how that relates to Christian belief.
For those who are very interested in literature, and in the paradoxes of the Christian faith, this is a worthwhile book. (And it made me want to read some of the literature he analyzed . . . surprise. . .) ( )
