edited by Phil Snider, Foreword by Phyllis Tickle  
067x083AdTestImage

Banned Questions About Jesus
edited by Christian Piatt
067x083AdTestImage

* Did Jesus ever have sex? 
* Was Jesus ever wrong?  
* Do people have to choose to follow Jesus to go to heaven?  

  

Ever get the feeling that you can't ask those kinds of questions at church? But if we can't ask the tough, keep-you-awake-at-night questions within our faith communities, then what good are those communities? Listen in as more than a dozen contributors-whose ranks include a lawyer, a recovering achiever/lapsed vegetarian, ministers (ordained and not ordained), and more-discuss the questions your Sunday school teachers were afraid to answer.

"This book isn't just entertaining and fascinating. It's inspiring and potentially life-changing. Here's my own question: Can you be curious and thoughtful about religion and NOT read this book? My answer: No."
-A.J. Jacobs, author of The Year of Living Biblically (ajjacobs.com)

Banned Questions About the Bible
edited by Christian Piatt
067x083AdTestImage  

*Where did Adam and Eve's kids find spouses? 

*Does God justify violence in scripture? 
*Does the Bible call for sexual purity? (and what qualifies as pure and impure?)  

   

"I've never seen a book quite like this: short, pithy answers to tough and important questions from a team of articulate, insightful thinkers. You've heard the expression 'pooled ignorance'--but this is the opposite: pooled brilliance. Your own thinking will be deepened by interacting with these sharp minds."
-Brian McLaren, author of Naked Spirituality (brianmclaren.net)

"These are some, not all, of the questions many are asking today. These are also some, not all, of the answers serious thinkers are proposing. What this book may do for you is provide an opportunity to ponder anew questions people are really asking about the book we Christians call God's Word."
-Scot McKnight, author of Blue Parakeet (scotmcknight.com)
