Description
There are some things we would rather not talk about. There are issues we are unwilling to discuss. We consider them "off-limits," and when they come up, we try to change the subject as quickly as possible:* Absolute truth* Heaven and hell* Miracles* Repentance* Holiness* Purity* Generosity* Race* Gay marriage* PoliticsBut we live in a world that is too full of difficult challenges and controversial issues for us to refuse to engage. The Scriptures were given so that Christians could be "thoroughly equipped for every good work" (2 Timothy 3:17 NIV). One of those "good works" is the ability to show a sincere inquirer that God has provided wise answers and reliable guidance not only for how to get to heaven, but also for how to respond and live effectively in this confused generation.In Untouchables, Jack Hilligoss demonstrates how God's Word never hides from any subject but, rather, handles these sensitive and intimidating topics with grace and truth. In doing so, he aims to equip the body of Christ with practical and profound Christian responses to these "untouchable" topics.
