For months now, Glennon Doyle’s newest release, Untamed, has remained on the New York Times Best Seller list. I picked it up not because of this prestigious accomplishment, but because I pay attention to what Christians are reading and talking about.
While Glennon does not view this book as Christian (or identify herself necessarily to be a Christian anymore), the book is listed on Amazon under the Christian self-help category. Under the guise of a Christian label (which understandably is beckoning Christians to read it), Untamed, is currently #1 on the Amazon list, right ahead of Jennie Allen’s Get Out of Your Head.
Using the analogy of a caged cheetah, Glennon encourages readers to break away from what tames us in order to live free in our natural state. However, as Christians, we know that since the fall of man our natural state is in bondage to sin.
