MY REVIEW

Fresh Encounter is a great book. The authors discuss deep topics in a reader-friendly way. The book is easy to read with helps to keep the reader focused- key points highlighted, summaries given regularly, and discussion/reflection questions at the end of each chapter. I think this book would make an excellent small group study. I found it to be very theologically sound and an all around interesting read.
