Ten Things Christians Wish Jesus Hadn't Taught: And Other Reasons to Question His Words - Paperback
by Tim Sledge (Editor), David Madison (Author)
For centuries the gospels have been cherished devotional literature, and under the guidance of preachers and priests, they've been understood as reliable depictions of Jesus. But even the most devout Christians stumble across sayings of Jesus that don't sound quite right. In fact-if we're honest-some of them are alarming. I discovered a few of these verses when I was a kid, but Jesus was our lord and savior, so I didn't let it bother me too much.
But the problem won't go away, even if many of the faithful file these troublesome texts in a mental drawer marked "Too uncomfortable to think about." In fact, the problem is much larger than many people suppose. In this book, you'll find "things Christians wish Jesus hadn't taught" categorized in ten chapters. How can this not be food for thought? What are the implications of this major downside of the gospels? It takes a certain level of bravery-frankly, curiosity and courage are required-to examine everything that Jesus taught. This book is designed to help with that adventure. David MadisonMade with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
