Product Description

If theology doesn't stretch our minds, it probably won't stretch our lives. In "Cafe Theology", Mike invites us to grab a cappuccino and travel with him from Creation to New Creation, as he presents us with a rich and human view of life and of Life-Giver. Whether we've been on the Christian journey our whole life, we're just starting out or we haven't even bought a ticket, this extraordinary book is applicable to our ordinary lives.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why this book goes into my top ten Christian books...., 12 April 2005

R. A. Charkham (U.K) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Cafe Theology: Exploring Love, the Universe and Everything (Paperback)

First- This is an enjoyable book to read. It is packed with interesting (and often amusing) illustrations and anecdotes. They don't simply entertain, they really do serve to illustrate the subjects covered in this book.
Second - Mike tackles the vital areas of the Christian faith with boldness and integrity, never flinching from difficult issues or hesitating to give bold answers.

In this book Mike works from the big picture (Creation), and explains how a Christian perspective can make sense of the perplexing world we see around us. This leads him through tough territory (suffering, providence) and to look afresh at more familiar ground too ... (The incarnation, atonement, the Spirit etc.)

I would recommend this book to
- people who have been following Christ for a while and want to freshen up their faith and are prepared to think about what they believe. (It would surprise me if Mike doesn't succeed in making most of us rethink issues along the way.)
- Church Pastors who are looking for a book to recommend to their small groups to study.
- people who are enquiring about Christianity who want something both enjoyable to read and substantial in content. This book could play the part in our generation that C.S. Lewis' Mere Christianity did when it first came out. It could sit alongside Lee Strobel's the Case for Christ and be given to people who have alread read Nicky Gumbel's Questions of Life.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's wonderful, 20 May 2010

Whimbrel (London) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cafe Theology (Paperback)

...clever, funny, poignant, personal, brave and page-turningly readable. You'll read it to the sound of pennies dropping. It's almost enough to cure me of my suspicion of the whole idea of a systematic theology.

5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining Theology, 9 Sep 2009

J. Storset "reformed packrat" (Scandinavia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Cafe Theology (Paperback)

A survey of the major elements of Christian mainstream theology, entertainingly, and sometimes movingly written. The author is not afraid to stand up for his own beliefs, neither is he afraid of presenting alternatives, and authoritative sources,if such are available. If you have enjoyed Mike Lloyd as the most soft-spoken member of the "God-Pod" program panel, you won't be disapointed in his book. I'd like to sit down and drink coffee with the author for a couple of hours.
