Alternatives: New Approaches to Traditional Christian Beliefs

We have become more concerned with the religion about Jesus Christ than with the religion of Jesus Christ.

When Jesus said, "Follow me" (Jn. 21:19), it was an invitation to live as His teachings directed, to believe as He believed.

Many traditionally accepted Christian doctrines may or may not reflect the religion of Jesus. Some reflect questionable economic, political, social, and even superstitious influences.

Alternatives examines the thinking behind traditional Christian beliefs, offers some nontraditional perspectives, and allows you to decide what is valid for yourself. Teachings considered are God, Jesus Christ, heaven, hell, satan, sin, worship, communion, prayer, baptism, and life after death.

Alternatives may provide answers to questions you have wondered about for years. It may strengthen some long-held beliefs and shed new light on others. Alternatives will surely expand your thinking and enhance your spiritual growth.
