Book Overview
Maybe in a perfect world. In real life, though, we can come across as tongue-tied instead of faith-filled. Speaking truth gets rough when we're unsure what we believe. Or why. Sometimes, even if we know, we have a hard time explaining it to others. That's being trapped Between Religious Rocks and Life's Hard Places. Thankfully, this easy-to-use resource offers 101 meaty responses to tough questions you'll field from family, friends, and co-workers. Or even yourself. Greg Albrecht doesn't know it all or pretend to. But he never backs away from heartfelt dialogue on subjects as diverse as cremation, homosexuality, church-hopping, mental illness, and cohabitation. Find out once and for all the answers to issues small and large. At the heart, these 101 questions and answers provide fodder for thoughtful inquiry. Scriptural enlightenment minus mangled proof texts. Best of all, Albrecht doesn't condescend, doesn't assume, but just responds to authentic concerns with timely answers. Book jacket.

Focus on the core
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Albrect has written a great book on Apolegetics. Some people will not like his answers regarding the subject of hell but hell is not a core essential doctrine in Christianity. Therefore he is not going to get bold about it. From the comment below, no Albrect will tell you himself that he is not a universalist. He believes that thier are some people who dont want to be saved and will therefore refuse God's free gift. They go to Hell because they choose it. However if a person dies without having the gospel preached to them, what happens. Greg is not going to give a dogmatic answer. Coming from the same legalistic background that he came from, we were the greatest critics on the face of the earth and we saw everything wrong with people. Worst of all, we judged thier salvation. That is forbidden in scipture. We need to give up judgement on who's in and who's out. PTM does not think that they are the one and only true internet church. That would be cultic teaching that they strongly teach agaisnt. They have a great ministry and many people are comming to Christ. Lets encourage them instead of putting them down.
