Thanks for the helpful resources. I have linked to this post at my blog, where I have collected numerous responses from my own Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. You may wish to read here:
Heard Lee Strobel speak this weekend on DiVinci Code...excellent. You can find his insights at leestrobel.com. I was avoiding the book but now will read it. I see it as a great opprotunity to share the real Jesus with others.
Brian McLaren had some good stuff to say to Sojourners. Very good pastoral approach.
Favorite quote is: "We need to ask ourselves why the vision of Jesus hinted at in Dan Brown's book is more interesting, attractive, and intriguing to these people than the standard vision of Jesus they hear about in church."

ReplyDeleteThanks for this Stephen. I'm putting a link in The Da Vinci Code Online, a combination of travel and fact finder on the Da Vinci Code phenomenon.
