Unquestioned Answers: Rethinking Ten Christian Clichés to Rediscover Biblical Truths
By Jeff Myers
What you'll learn
Doubt is central to belief. True faith is marked by questioning. To accept a carefully-worded one liner without thinking about its truth and weighing it with that of the Bible runs contrary to Christianity. The explanations, phrases, and witticisms we concoct and spread through language gloss over the much deeper, more complex truths of the Bible. We must dig beneath these words to uncover true meaning, prying into our own minds to search for those beliefs we repeat on an endless loop with little understanding of their actual meaning. Christian thinker and president of Summit Ministries, Jeff Myers, unearths 10 clichés that bind believers in patterns of thoughtlessness and limitation. Only through thoughtful questioning can we break the surface of eloquent words and enter the depths of absolute truth.
