I know there was discussion about this a while back.

I'm looking for a book to take on vacation next week and my mom had Left Behind.

I know there are religious themes and I am just wondering how heavy they are.

The story sounds interesting. Any opinions?

To say that there are religious themes in that series is like saying the ocean is a bit damp.

Only read one of the Left Behind books, the "prequel" called Soon.

Yes, it was a bit heavy on the religious theme but doesn't proselytize. I'm not much into the religious-themed books but this one I found interesting. I'd like to read the others, if I can find them, but from what I understand, there's a dozen or more out there in the series.

I think if you're interested in the series then read the prequel since that would give you an idea of what the series is about and how "preachy" it is.

I read the whole series and enjoyed them.
