A friend of mine, Dave Sterrett, graciously asked me if I would take time out of my busy schedule of churning cheese and brewing beer to review his new book, co-authored with Josh McDowell. (It seemed like a win-win situation to me; it can get mighty lonely in those cloistered cells.) The reading experience was well worth the time. Josh McDowell and Dave Sterrett have collaborated on an excellent book, ‘O’ God: A Dialogue on Truth and Oprah’s Spirituality New City of the Gospel Review

Tampa Bay Tribune- “O” God examines Oprah

admin — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 18:06:59 +0000

“‘O’ God: A Dialogue on Truth and Oprah’s Spirituality” ($15, WND Books) aims to give a Christian response to some of the spiritual views expressed on the talk show host’s popular daily television program and in her monthly magazine.

Instead of leveling a critical and theological attack, the authors use a more gentle method. The points are made through a fictional dialogue between two female graduate students: a former Hindu yoga instructor-turned-Christian and ...more

When it comes to God, Oprah Winfrey and Dallas — the city that many consider the evangelical capital of America- I am sure of two things.

(1) I am sure that there plenty of people in the greater Dallas area who think Oprah is wonderful and has God in her cell telephone’s speed dial.

(2) I am sure that there are plenty of people in Dallas who think that Oprah is (pick one) ...more

By Whitney Von Lake Hopler Crosswalk.com contributing writer Oprah Winfrey reaches millions of viewers every weekday through her popular TV talk show, and even more through her magazine and other parts of her vast media empire. She often discusses a topic she says is close to her heart – spirituality – and proclaims her Christian faith. Known for her acts of kindness and generosity to people in need, Oprah says she’s passionate about serving God. But Oprah’s idea of God is far different than the One the Bible reveals.

Review from Dr. Dan Panetti

wnd — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 16:43:08 +0000

There is no denying the fact that Oprah’s popularity is pervasive in our culture today. From her immensely popular daytime TV show to her magazine, website, satellite radio show, book club selections and online spiritual sessions, Oprah is one of the most visible and influential persons today. Her influence spilled over into the political arena this past election as well. But the primary concern isn’t political, it’s Oprah’s position on matters of religion that caused McDowell and Sterrett to coauthor this much-needed examination of what Oprah is actually promoting and endorsing.
