| Publisher Description: If someone asked you, "What does it mean to be born again," what would you say? With humor and an easygoing conversational style, young theologian Jim Barringer examines Jesus' teaching that we all must be "born again," exploring the questions and implications behind the statement. Among the highlights: "Why does God love me?" - reminding ourselves that God's love for us is based in his goodness, not in our merit "Why can't I earn my salvation?" - making sense of God's holiness in terms we can understand "How do I live out the two greatest commandments?" - what does it really mean to love God with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength, and to love my neighbor as myself? "What happens after death?" - a powerful meditation on Scripture's teaching about the new heaven and the new earth, where we will spend eternity with God. If you've ever been looking for simple answers for the basic questions of our faith, or if you're looking for a new way to explain timeless ideas to those around you, come along for the ride |
