Hello World : A Personal Letter to the Body of Christ Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I picked this book out of the bargain bin of a local Christian bookstore chain for $3.99. To borrow a phrase from Huey Lewis & The News, "One dollar's worth was all that I could stand...sometimes bad is bad!"
Paul Crouch reminds me why there is such a need for ghostwriters.
This book couldn't be much worse. Mr. Crouch has absolutely no writing ability. He gives the reader no real insight into the founding & continuing story of Trinity Broadcasting Network, or of himself and his family. This book appears to have been written by a 7th grader.
Worst of all, Mr. Crouch has the disconcerting habit of suddenly CAPITALIZING ENTIRE WORDS AND PHRASES, and punctuating his sentences with EXCLAMATION POINTS!!! Plus, he continually overuses italics & "quotation marks."
Mr. Crouch relates battles and struggles with various "Christian brothers," and complains about how they were always out to get him & TBN: "GOD'S OWN NETWORK!!! But he never tells the behind-the-scenes story about the bizarre people he has on TBN regularly, whose theological ravings have been exposed by many other Christian ministries. (example: the "Word of Faith" movement as epitomized by "Dad" Kenneth Hagin & Benny Hinn).
Finally, this is one, long boring book, full of naming names of those who got on Mr. Crouch's backside over the years, but without any satisfying or amusing anecdotes. My question to Mr. Crouch is this: "WOULD YOU LIKE SOME CHEESE WITH THAT WHINE?"
--John Paul in Oklahoma City
