Summary: A plan to cultivate an honest credo in relationships
Comment: Dare To Be True: Living In The Freedom Of Complete Honesty by Mark D. Roberts (Senior Pastor of Irvine Presbyterian Church, Irvine, California), is a spiritual self-help guide especially appropriate for Christians struggling to remain truthful in a spin-saturated world that punishes honesty and rewards well-crafted lies. Offering a plan to cultivate an honest credo in relationships (including the one shared with God, improve one's feelings of self-worth and straighten one's character), Dare To Be True draws upon the wisdom of scripture to encourage improvement in one's life and soul.

Summary: Take the Dare!
Comment: "Honesty is the best policy" is what we've been taught since childhood. But I would add "it may come with a price." When you read Mark Roberts' latest book it will challenge you in ways you may find surprising!
Perhaps it was the title that lead me to the initial idea that perhaps Dr. Mark Roberts had taken "a little time off" from the theological depth of his earlier books. "Everybody knows what truthfulness is and how to be truthful" was perhaps what I was thinking. Then, as I read I began to see that Truth is not so simple; this book was going to reach me at both the intellectual level and in my heart.
Since you're reading this review, like me you probably see yourself as a "truthful" person. Be prepared to be challenged by the bright light of truth that Mark Roberts' writing will shine on you. That's the "price." But the value is the added freedom that you will discover as you more fully commit to letting God show you truth.
And don't be afraid that you will be attacked by the author's words. This is not some "fire & brimstone" sermon. But gentle words and personal examples as used by Mark can be very powerful. They were for me.
The title is well chosen; this is a "Dare" well worth accepting!

Summary: A Dare Worth Taking
Comment: "Dare to Be True" tackles tough issues in relation to the practice of speaking the truth and living the truth. Drawing on the encouragement and insight of the Scriptures, this readable volume offers plenty of vivid illustrations and real-world examples of what commitment to truth looks like in today's world. As one of Mark's former students at Fuller, I have always appreciated his academic ability but this book offers much more. "Dare to Be True" reveals the tender heart of a pastor who is committed to living according to the example of Jesus who came to us "full of grace and truth" (John 1:14). This book will help all who hope to live in the same way.
