The controversy about Rob Bell's new book continues, even though it still doesn't come out for a few weeks. Some people want you to believe that Bell is a dangerous "heretic" who wants you to abandon the truth of the Bible and accept some wicked and untrue beliefs. Unfortunately the one thing these critics all have in common is that they haven't read the book yet! Sadly, many of their comments also seem to lack both love and humility.
Well, here at last is a balanced and sensible review of the book by Greg Boyd, who has actually read the book! Thank you Greg.
And here is a great post by Robin Parry on the subject, which offers wise counsel on how Christians should discuss controversial issues. Thank you Robin.
One thing the premature critics have achieved is to ensure that Rob's book will be a massive best seller. I'll certainly be getting a copy... and reading it!
