The "F" Bomb Exploded I heard Richard Beck on the Eric Metaxas show this morning and wondered about his other books. I was attracted to "Turn Off Your TV" and bought it. Big mistake. After only reading the intro and first chapter, he has begun using the "F" bomb which I find completely unnecessary and a turn-off. Note: I was just informed that this is a different Richard Beck, not the one interviewed on Eric's show. This is certainly confusing. Nevertheless, I got a refund. The idea is fabulous, but the execution is flawed.
