Heartwarming Heresies

About the Book

Heartwarming Heresies is a timely and much-needed book that delves into the very heart of many of the beliefs that are dearly held by many Evangelical Christians today. It’s the author’s contention that such beliefs may have little solid biblical foundation, but believers have adopted them nonetheless. It isn’t because they have researched them extensively in the Bible, but it’s ultimately because they have found them intellectually logical and emotionally reassuring. In this easy-to-read book, you will examine a dozen questions about “The Christian’s relationship with God,” “The nature and purpose of the church,” “What we can expect in heaven,” and “The devil and his hell.” The author challenges you to examine with him in light of the scriptures some of those things you believe. Are they thoroughly substantiated by the Bible, or have you unwittingly adopted a few spurious ideas along the way that may please your mind and warm your heart, but are ultimately a collection of heartwarming heresies?
