Praise for the Print Edition
This book is a rare treasure because it combines the scholar’s mind and tough thinking with a pastor’s heart, all written in an interesting and very accessible style. The book does a wonderful job of presenting honest, authentic answers to many typical questions people ask about Christianity. But what makes this book stand out from all other book of this sort is the fact that Arnold and Arnold incorporate, in their questions about the Christian life and its central practices for maturity, a treatment about how to know God intimately and a section on the supernatural world.
—J.P. Moreland, professor of Philosophy at Talbot School of Theology, Biola University
If you’ve ever wondered whether the Bible contains contradictions, or how science and faith can work together, or whether Jesus truly represents the only way to heaven, this book is for you. It is filled with practical, easily digestible answers to some of the most pressing questions about the Christian faith.
—Jim Daly, president of Focus on the Family
Two trends happening in our culture today give me pause for concern. Christians are not as biblically literate as they once were, and the seismic shifts in our culture over the past decade necessitate answers to questions we once took for granted. I’m so grateful to my former professor, Dr. Clint Arnold, along with Jeff Arnold, for writing a theologically robust volume in language readily understood by a broad audience. Short Answers to Big Questions will go a long way in serving both those within and outside the body of Christ for years to come.
