Swindoll tells readers with his newest book that the church is letting it's followers slack and develop their own thoughts, actions and concepts without interference. He says that the church needs to pick up the slack and say, 'hey wait a second, let's back up here so I can lead you in the correct Christian way'. I only see one major flaw with the logic of his book... Obviously he wants to target the ones who have gone astray somewhere, but what person who has 'gone astray' is going to pick up a book that tells you that you have 'gone astray'? I mean, as humans, we don't like for anyone to criticize us, tell us we have done something wrong, etc. I think Swindoll needs to be a little more suggestive and not so drill sergent in his ways. Humans do take suggestions better.. we tend to think we made the decision when it is only suggested after all... Other than that, Swindoll tells it how he thinks it.
