A satirical look at cultural Christianity, How to be a Perfect Christian pokes fun with no holds barred. From slick church websites to putting on the Christian face in small groups, nothing is sacred. And while I often steer clear of this type of humor, I found myself laughing my way through this one.
Prior to this book, I'd never heard of the Babylon Bee and had to look them up. I had my fingers crossed that this book wouldn't be written in all seriousness and thankfully it wasn't. Having grown up in the church, I could relate to a lot of the scenarios presented and read several whole sections out loud to whoever was around. It was just that funny.
While I don't typically enjoy books like this one, How to be a Perfect Christian delighted me with it's humor. However, it's one of books that you'll probably either love or hate. If you don't mind poking fun at modern Christian culture, than you're in for a delight. If you're looking to spend your time on a more serious study, this is one to pass.
