Story
Dr. Crabb envisions a day when communities of God's people - ordinary Christians whose lives connect as husband to wife, brother to sister, friend to friend - will accomplish most of the healing that we now depend on mental health professionals to provide. God has deposited within us the power to heal soul-diseases and that power is released to do its work as we relate to each other in revolutionary new ways. In challenging, practical language, Dr. Crabb shows us how.
Publisher's Summary
People regularly give certain reasons for not believing in God, but they are much less aware of what the New Testament actually teaches. Although challenges to Christianity are perennial and have frequently been addressed, they are noticeably more common today and are currently of particular interest among evangelicals.
Skeptics of Christianity often ask highly regarded biblical scholar and popular speaker Craig Blomberg how he can believe in a faith that seems so problematic. How can God allow evil and suffering? Isn't the Bible anti-women, anti-gay, and pro-slavery? Isn't the New Testament riddled with contradictions? What about the nature of hell, violence in Scripture, and prayer and predestination? Following the author's successful Can We Still Believe the Bible?, this succinct and accessible audiobook focuses on what the New Testament teaches about 10 key reasons people give for not believing in God.

Good insights from a New Testament scholar
While there are already a number of books that address these questions, Blomberg is a fine New Testament scholar and has a unique perspective and contribution to add. Worth a listen even if I politely think this is not his best work or the best work on this topic.
The ten questions are [with a few comments]:
1 If there is a God, why does he allow so much suffering? [conflates libertarian freewill with the principal alternate possibilities].
2 Must all the unevangelized go to hell (and what is hell)? [holds to eternal conscious torment].
3 Slavery, gender roles and same sex relations [takes the traditional position].
4 The meaning of miracles [thinks miracles actually happen].
5 Were the stories of Jesus made up from Greco-Roman myths [shows this is unlikely. Note, doesn't mention the recent contribution of Moore's The Mysteries, Resurrection and 1 Corinthians 15 to the topic].
6 How should we respond to all the violence in the Bible? [explains pacifism and just war theory].
7 The problems of prayer and predestination [suggests God has middle knowledge and the NT teach single predestination of believers].
8 What about all the apparent contradictions in the Gospels? [suggests they can be harmonized].
9 Hasn't the church played fast and loose with copying and translating the NT? [against Ehrman, shows the NT can be reliably recovered].
10 The alleged undesirability of the Christian life [even if this was the case doesn't make it untrue]
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
