“I enjoyed this book a lot. Having done the alpha course myself, I was interested in what the author would say about it. I thought it was spot on.”
That’s what one Amazon reviewer said about The Omega Course, a novel about a 17-year-old who takes the Alpha Course in an effort to come to terms with a devastating accident.
A Canadian podcaster described the novel as:
“…gripping and heartfelt…A compassionate and balanced examination of faith and unbelief (that) will appeal to both religious and nonreligious people.”
For one American reviewer, it is important that:
“…no one is presented as being right or wrong, no one is ridiculed as a fool or a fanatic.”
The British reviewer quoted above finished by saying:
“For anyone interested in Christianity and why people believe the things they do, this is an interesting book. But it can also be read as a novel about two young people trying to negotiate the intricacies of life. I would recommend this book.”
