Quick-review: Connected

...by Sam Allberry (IVP 2012)

A freebie from a conference, so quids in. 

It's a nice little book.  It doesn't answer some of my questions about the Trinity that I'd love to understand (at least no more than other similar books I have read, which hinted they would).  But actually he doesn't claim to: rather it's about how the doctrine of the Trinity underpins much we believe and guides us in some areas of life.  And he can be quite funny too.

So: very good - but not (nor does not claim to be) a big theological tome exploring the deeper mysteries.  The kind of book, perhaps, for people who haven't thought much about the Trinity; or accept it because it's orthodox but can't see what difference it makes to life.
