"Coffee Shop Conversations"Book Review


My Thoughts

“Coffee Shop Conversations” by Dale & Jonalyn Fincher is a 219 page book about how to have meaningful and respectful discussions about your faith with those who don’t share and have differing views.

Written in a casual tone, peppered with personal ancedotes, “Coffee Shop Conversations” looks at a way to have discussions in both difficult to everyday casual situations, particularly in an everchanging world.

There is some food of thought to be shared in the reading though there were spots that left me questioning the direction of the writing; Perhaps it was the way the wording was, but although this is makes great reading, this is a book best suited for those who are a little more grounded in their understanding of Scripture then for those who are new to the faith.

From the Media Release about “Coffee Shop Conversations”, the following is shared:

A 2008 study released by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life notes that the number of people creating their own interpretations of faith and culture is growing. Seems like there are as many different styles of faith as ways to order your latte. How does a Christian have normal conversations about Jesus without accidentally sounding offensive, bigoted or intolerant?

In Coffee Shop Conversations (April 2010) by Dale Fincher and Jonalyn Fincher, readers will find the tools they need to speak plainly and honestly about their faith, avoid speaking “christianese” and have meaningful, tolerant and respectful conversations with friends who don’t share their views. Coffee Shop Conversations is written to an audience of 18-35 year olds interested in articulating their faith throughout their everyday activities.
