About this listen

Unapologetic is a brief, personal, sharp-tongued defence of Christian belief. It isn't an argument that Christianity is true, because how could anyone know that (or indeed its opposite)? It's a book for believers who are fed up with being patronised, for nonbelievers curious about faith in the 21st century, and for anyone who feels there is something indefinably anti-imaginative and intolerant about the way the atheist case is currently being made.

One of the best audiobooks I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. Beautifully read by the author.

I wasn't sure what I was getting into when I bought it. had I listened it 2 or 3 years ago I may have requested my money back. it's been a long hard Road out of Evangelical Fundamentalism, and I'm not exactly sure where I am right now, but this book spoke to me on so many levels.

I agreed deeply with about 95% of what he said, the other 5% being inconsequential to anything. His brutal honesty about the possible non-existence of God. his frequent use bad language. His admitted of his own horrible failure as a husband. It all spoke to me.

I would highly recommend the book if you are thinking of buying it. Of course if you are a committed Fudamentalist the this book will offend you and you will probably not finish it, wondering of the author is even a real Christian.

Brilliant.

Good to understand one individual’s perspective on being a Christian. The account is interesting, heartfelt and completely ‘believable’ and offered some interesting insights and new perspectives. As a result however I got somewhat lost when I was trying to see if it had been a persuasive argument for me although I don’t think that was really the goal of the book - it’s not evangelical in that sense nor some attempt at a provable logical argument. He’s not trying to convert anyone which is maybe the most enjoyable and unique aspect of this book.

I'd recommend listening to this regardless of your position on Christianity, atheism, or any other religious position. Spufford has so much to say about the human condition, our propensity to mess things up, and how more can be mended that we know.

Beautifully written, profound, challenging

Just finished listening through the second time

A good sweep of Christian / human experience here..

It has honesty and no nonsense throughout, Francis deals soberly with the real problems and dismisses those that aren’t hooray!

There’s some swearing here but not too much, I personally think it’s essential

Give it a try

If you have given it a try and are stuck in the shoals of theodicies... Hang on! Chapter 5 Yeshua, is a must listen..

It spoke to me anyway..

A good listen for unbelievers and believers alike. Spufford - who excellently narrates himself - is thought-provoking and witty, educated, intelligent, and down-to-earth. Well worth a listen.

Intelligent, wry and thoughtful take on religion
