I have. It's okay. I don't like his popular-level stuff (his Christian Origins series is much better). Overall he does give us a healthy, earthy view of new-creation. Before we call it heresy, it is the same view that amillennialists Hoekema and Bavinck espouse.

There is a very bad (and blessedly short) section where he advocates socialism. Doug Wilson did a good job refuting that.
