A Quick Read with Transformative Power

Love Wins by Rob Bell

April 22, 2020 by randirock Leave a Comment

“A staggering number of people have been taught that a select few Christians will spend forever in a peaceful, joyous place called heaven, while the rest of humanity spends forever in torment and punishment in hell with no chance for anything better.

    This is very cool. Was this a used bookstore find, or something knocking around the family bookshelves?
