Customer Reviews

Light on organization, heavy on content

I've read most every book about U2 and the Christian faith. While I wish Garrett would've done a better job of organizing the content of the chapters (the first one really floats around a lot), this book is chopped-full of good, meaty stuff when it comes to U2's music and mission and Christianity. The third chapter on Social Justice is especially powerful; and for it alone is worth the purchase.

another reason why believers should appreciate U2

I'm not quite done reading this book, but I can tell you it's a MUST read for anyone who has ever been touched by U2's music. You know it's a good book when you feel compelled to pick up a pencil and underline key words and thoughts Garrett puts in front of you. This book is especially meaningful to me as a practicing Episcopalian living and growing in my faith on a daily basis. U2 and books like this have really motivated me to "get up off my knees" and be mindful and responsive to the needs of others.
