Many of us were taught that the Bible is to be taken literally on every point. But does that hold up? Is the Bible even concerned with historic or scientific accuracy? If it isn't historically and scientifically accurate, does that mean its all garbage?

You'd think that the point of studying the Bible would be to make you better. But if you're not careful, Bible knowledge can make you a bully. The Pharisees were Bible scholars, but they were sad sorry mean-spirited little men. How can we look at the Bible in a way that makes us better not worse?

If the resurrection isn’t resurrecting something inside you, then what's point? Because if you're dead inside, then who cares that you can check the resurrection box on the doctrinal questionnaire?

People today are so deeply invested in being right. For many, it isn’t about finding solutions, or solving problems, it's just about winning an argument. So many people are so deeply opinionated about so many things...and it's often Christians who are right in the middle of the shouting match.

Many people believe that Christianity is a private club for republicans only. They've preached a gospel that could only ever appeal to people on one end of the political spectrum. Christianity is politicized as never before. But the first christians were politically diverse. What happened?

Christians have been guilty of an over emphasis on doctrine, dogma & theology, & an under emphasis on the inner life. Because of this, doctrinal correctness and creedal purity have become a huge distraction from true spirituality, and our vigilance against the heresies of the head have caused us to ignore heresies of the heart.

The conflict between science & faith is a centuries-old catfight. Clearly the church is losing the fight. Can you be a thoughtful, bright, educated, intellectually honest, scientifically credible, open-minded person, AND a Christian?

A healthy faith achieves a balance between intellect and emotion. But the Christian world has lost this balance, and often seeks to manufacture a contrived emotionalism, while seeing itself as being at war with intellectuals.

Do you believe what you believe because you've always believed it, because someone told you to believe it, because you only hang out with others who believe it, because it just feels like you should believe it? Then that's not belief... that's just believe-i-ness.

Does the Bible really teach that 90 to 95% of humanity is going to burn in Hell forever? Is that the Amazing Grace we're singing about? Could it be that our orthodoxy about Hell is more a product of Medieval Europe than it is of the Bible?

Religious people have always tended to operate under a delusion that their sins are few and minor, but the sins of others are many and major. Everyone likes to think that their outhouse don’t stink…. But all you have to do is ask the neighbors.

Secular people don't understand religious people, and vice-versa. So we can't even talk anymore, it's like we're from two different planets. Christians have isolated and created their own little sub-culture, and it looks so strange to outside observers. Hey everybody's weird... nobody's normal. But there is a unique brand of christian weirdness... you know what I'm talking about. Is it really necessary?
It's hard to be around negative nagging people. We tend to avoid them whenever possible. So why have Christians felt that nagging and finger wagging is a good strategy? There's gotta be a better way.
Evangelicals are not only failing at selling their message, they are actively repelling people. Find out why and what needs to change.
