Volume II contains all Bob's Current and online columns from November 8, 2011 (#261) to November 1, 2016 (#520). There is a thorough Titles and Topics listing up front and for further ease of navigation, a meticulous topical index in the back. Bob's still writing ... Volume III in 2021?

This book is a compilation of five years of weekly Christian newspaper columns with thoughtful and often wry reflections on Christianity, Christian life, and modern culture. Written by late-to-the-faith journalist and communications executive Bob Walters, the columns have been published in the weekly ""Current"" local general interest newspapers in Carmel, Westfield, Noblesville and Fishers, Indiana, on the northside of Indianapolis since the paper's founding in October 2006. It's uncommon for a newspaper to provide this kind of direct, believer's commentary on common Christian themes, hence the title - Common Christianity / Uncommon Commentary.Foreword by Dr. David Faust, President, Cincinnati Christian University.
