Crazy for God

I was introduced to Frank Schaeffer via this segment on Rachel Maddow and decided I needed to read his memior, "Crazy for God". I'm glad I did. It's a helluva book. This guy has led a dynamic life and beyond his tell-all about the psychotic and hypocritical evangelists we all know, he mainly shows how living a faith is more important than touting a faith.

Most enlightening was the portrayal of his famous parents who were horrified by the political and hateful direction fundamentalism took after Roe v. Wade. All in all I'd recommend this book to anyone. It's one of those books that is hard to put down. His life is a roller coaster!
