Book review: A year of living biblically

I love stories about people to really get into something and then write about it. This is the story of a man who decides to take a year of his life and attempt to follow every rule that is in the Bible as literally as possible.

What follows is a funny and insightful and really made me think about the various 'rules' and things that I attempt to follow in my own life and what is it that use to determine what rules are the ones to pay attention to, and what ones I ignore.

I highly recommend this book. It is fun. It is informative. But most of all, it will make you examine the various codes and morals that you have and wonder how they got there and do you really follow things that you claim to?

Have you read "The Know It All" by the same author? It is about his experience reading through the Encylopedia Britannica. It was a fun read. I haven't read his new one yet. Honestly, I think he has too much time on his hands!!!
