Gum, Geckos, and God - J. Spiegel
An Enjoyable, Thoughtful Read
Centered on conversations that Spiegel has with his young children about the Christian faith, Gum, Geckos, and God effectively takes topics that can often be abstract and difficult and presents them concretely and clearly. Questions that his kids ask (and that we've all wondered about) such as "What is God like?" (chap. 1), "Why do some people not believe in God?" (chap. 5), and "Why is it hard to be good?" (chap. 8) are addressed through the family's dialogue and Spiegel's thoughtful, personal reflections.
The result is a book that's delightful to read. It's engaging and insightful throughout with plenty of humor and tenderness mixed in.
