Bell explores these issues not by covert biblical exegesis but [by] new-fashioned storytelling. Bell weaves inspiring stories of people who turned their suffering into something transformative. (Publishers Weekly) Bell fights every impulse in our culture to domesticate Jesus [and] challenges the reader to be open to surprise, mystery and all of the unanswerables Bell has given theologically suspicious Christians new courage to bet their life on Jesus Christ. (Christian Century) Claiming that some versions of Jesus should be rejected, particularly those used to intimidate and inspire fear or hatred, Bell persuasively interprets the Bible as a message of love and redemption. . . . His style is characteristically concise and oral, his tone passionate and unabashedly positive. (Publishers Weekly) One of the nations rock-star-popular young pastors, Rob Bell, has stuck a pitchfork in how Christians talk about damnation. (USA Today) It isnt easy to develop a biblical imagination that takes in the comprehensive and eternal work of Christ . . . Rob Bell goes a long way in helping us acquire just such an imaginationwithout a trace of soft sentimentality and without compromising an inch of evangelical conviction. (Eugene H.
