In 'Love Wins' Rob Bell confronted the troubling questions that many people of faith were afraid to ask about heaven, hell, fate, and faith. Using the same inquisitive approach, he now turns to our most sacred book, providing insights and answers that make clear why the Bible is so revered and what makes it truly inspiring and essential to our lives. Rob takes us deep into actual passages to reveal the humanity behind the Scriptures. You cannot get to the holy without going through the human, Rob tells us. When considering a passage, we shouldn't ask "Why did God say ..." To get to the heart of the Bible's meaning, we should be asking: "What's the story that's unfolding here and why did people find it important to tell it? What was it that moved them to record these words? What was happening in the world at that time? What does this passage/story/poem/verse/book tell us about how people understood who they were and who God was at that time?" In asking these questions, Rob goes beyond the one-dimensional question of "is it true?" to reveal the Bible's authentic transformative power. Rob addresses the concerns of all those who see the Bible as God's Word but are troubled by the ethical dilemmas, errors, and inconsistencies in Scripture. With What Is the Bible?, he recaptures the Good Book's magic and reaffirms its power and inspiration to shape and inspire our lives today

Rob Bell's bestselling book Love Wins struck a powerful chord with a new generation of Christians who are asking the questions church leaders have been afraid to touch. His new book, What We Talk About When We Talk About God, will continue down this path, helping us with the ultimate big-picture issue: how do we know God? Love Wins was a Sunday Times bestseller that created a media storm, launching Bell as a national religious voice who is reinvigorating what it means to be religious and a Christian today. He is one of the most influential voices in the Christian world, and now his new book, What We Talk About When We Talk About God, is poised to blow open the doors on how we understand God. Bell believes we need to drop our primitive, tribal views of God and instead understand the God who wants us to become who we were designed to be, a God who created a universe of quarks and quantum string dynamics, but who also gives meaning to why new-born babies and stories of heroes and sacrifice inspire in us a deep reverence. What We Talk About When We Talk About God will reveal that God is not in need of repair to catch him up with today's world so much as we need to discover the God who goes before us and beckons us forward. A book full of mystery, controversy, and reverence, What We Talk About When We Talk About God has fans and critics alike anxiously awaiting, and promises not to disappoint.
We have to test everything. I thank God for anybody anywhere who is pointing people to the mysteries of God. But those people would all tell you to think long and hard about what they are saying and doing and creating. Test it. Probe it. Do that to this book. Don't swallow it uncritically. Think about it. Wrestle with it. Just because I'm a Christian and I'm trying to articulate a Christian worldview doesn't mean I've got it nailed. I'm contributing to the discussion. God has spoken, and the rest is commentary, right!
Bestselling author Rob Bell returns with a thought-provoking exploration of life and death, challenging both Christians and atheists while inspiring people of all beliefs. Many Christians grapple with reconciling God's love and judgment: Has God created countless individuals only to save a select few while condemning the rest to eternal suffering? Is this truly acceptable to God? Such troubling questions have led some to abandon their faith, while others hesitate to voice their doubts for fear of repercussions. But what if these concerns are valid? What if traditional narratives about heaven and hell diverge from biblical teachings? What if Jesus' messages about heaven, hell, and salvation differ from popular interpretations? Bell encourages readers to confront these questions, suggesting that God desires us to engage with them. As an author, pastor, and innovative teacher, he offers a biblically grounded vision that invites a richer, more profound understanding of heaven, hell, God, Jesus, salvation, and repentance. Ultimately, this journey reveals that the "good news" is far more extraordinary than we ever imagined. Love wins.

Gott ist mit uns und für uns. Er will uns Zukunft und Perspektive geben. Allerdings gibt es ein Problem: Viele behandeln Gott wie einen Oldtimer – wie ein Auslaufmodell. Und andere, die ihn noch nicht kennen, nehmen ihn genau als solchen Oldtimer wahr: wie ein Relikt aus einer anderen Zeit – weder attraktiv noch vereinbar mit unserer heutigen Zeit. Ein große Irrtum. Rob Bell fordert dazu heraus, das eigene Bild von Gott zu hinterfragen und festgefahrene Denkmuster zu durchbrechen. Gott ist mit uns, für uns, und er geht uns voran. Wenn wir das zutiefst verstehen, wird unser Leben tiefer, intensiver, zufriedener, glücklicher sein, als wir es jemals für möglich gehalten hätten.
