Overall a helpful book. At points I found myself shouting "YES!" from the sidelines, and other points I had some questions, but overall, a good book.
It was a bit repetitive at points. I see what the author was trying to do by focusing on 'participation' language and he did highlight how 'union' language doesn't quite have the same emphasis, but at points it felt a bit hobby-horse-ish.

I like that the author calls out the church on having a simplistic view of faith that might be restricted simply to a set of doctrinal points, rather than a life that is full of Christ. Some really helpful challenges.

Klyne R. Snodgrass' "You Need A Better Gospel" is an inspiring reminder to keep Christ front and center in one's theological and biblical understanding of the gospel. Far from inspiring head knowledge, this book focuses on the beauty of Christ and having one's individual and communal identity experientially in Christ. I highly recommend!
