Description

“This may be the most influential book you will read this year.” —Lee Strobel, bestselling author of The Case for Miracles

A Movement Seeks to Redefine Christianity. Some Think that It Is a Much-Needed Progressive Reformation. Others Believe that It Is an Attack on Historic Christianity.

Alisa Childers never thought she would question her Christian faith. She was raised in a Christian home, where she had seen her mom and dad feed the hungry, clothe the homeless, and love the outcast. She had witnessed God at work and then had dedicated her own life to leading worship, as part of the popular Christian band ZOEgirl. All that was deeply challenged when she met a progressive pastor, who called himself a hopeful agnostic.

Another Gospel? describes the intellectual journey Alisa took over several years as she wrestled with a series of questions that struck at the core of the Christian faith. After everything she had ever believed about God, Jesus, and the Bible had been picked apart, she found herself at the brink of despair . . . until God rescued her, helping her to rebuild her faith, one solid brick at a time.

In a culture of endless questions, you need solid answers. If you or someone you love has encountered the ideas of progressive Christianity and aren’t sure how to respond, Alisa’s journey will show you how to determine—and rest in—what’s unmistakably true.

    Gets into the facts of WHY you believe what you believe not just because you are supposed too.

    This book has intellectually, emotionally and, most importantly, spiritually equipped me to deconstruct and reconstruct my faith with the Word and to help others do the same. “There. Are. Answers.” I love the holy confidence with which this was delivered.

    For a few years I was involved in an “emergent” church plant. By the end of my time there I was so disillusioned with Christianity that I walked away from “organized religion”. I would never say I walked away from Jesus, but that is exactly what happened. For the next ten years I made worse and worse decisions and eventually I did not even recognize myself anymore. I went through an almost identical deconstruction and reconstruction period. It has now been ten years since that reconstruction began and after reading, listening, and watching so much on the subject that was helpful in rebuilding my faith, this book came across my iBooks and I have to say it was the easiest book to read that deals with this topic. The author keeps it to the point without over doing it, and tells enough stories from her personal life to illustrate things in a way that anyone can understand. I recommend this book to anyone who is looking to see the truth amidst all the confusion

    When progressives can’t defeat the message, they turn to discrediting the messenger. This book is not a commentary on the Bible (the message), it is a commentary on the authenticity of the Bible (the messenger). I would put this book up there with Dennis Prager’s Rational Bible. The reader of Rational Bible and Another Gospel has reason and logic to support their faith and hope. Rocks of a firm foundation of faith.
