SEVEN OUTRAGEOUS TRUTHS YOU CAN STILL BELIEVE . . . AND WHY

·“Every other religion is wrong.”
·“God sends good people to Hell.”
·“Homosexuality is a perversion.”
·“Evolution is a myth.”
·“God is ultimately responsible for suffering in the world.”
·“Husbands are to lead their families.”
·“America is a Christian nation.”

In Hell? Yes! Dr. Robert Jeffress issues a bold wakeup call to all believers–from college students to grandparents–to stop apologizing for and start proclaiming the tough but essential truths that Christians have historically embraced. And he provides the finest biblical, scientific, and historical evidence needed to defend these core beliefs in a culture turned hostile to God's truth.
Dr. Jeffress believes the secular spirit of political correctness is holding the church hostage. And the tragic result is that the revolutionary, life-changing, positive message of the Christian faith is being watered down.
If you are weary of a Christianity that waffles and wavers about controversial issues–if you are ready to stand up and compassionately yet forcefully and intelligently say, “This is what I believe and here’s why”–then this book is for you!

      Quite reasonably, readers quickly perusing this newest offering by pastor and author Jeffress (I Want More!; The Solomon Secrets
      ), might assume that it is an all-out attack on Christian liberals whose views on society and theological matters oppose those of conservative evangelicals. This assumption would be mostly wrong. Jeffress, who pastors a 9,000-member Baptist church in Texas, uses a plainspoken style to tackle difficult issues: is God responsible for suffering? Is evolution a myth? Are men to assume leadership of their families? Is homosexuality is an aberrant lifestyle? Jeffress's prime objective is to educate fellow Christians so they might intelligently engage those outside their faith with reason and care. Regarding the always nettlesome discussion of submission, Jeffress does an exemplary job of correcting misguided believers who fail to grasp that biblical submission is limited in both sphere and scope. Specifically, Jeffress contends that although women are never prohibited from "leading a corporation, commanding a battalion of soldiers or serving as president of the United States," they are called to submit in the church. Not much of this text falls within comfort zones, and at times Jeffress does come across as militant. Conservative evangelical Christians will likely embrace this hard-hitting resource with enthusiasm.
