This section concerns what I was referring to on page 2 of this review when I spoke of John Eldredge’s “degrading, humanistic, and even heretical view of God.” In order to sho...
I read the whole book, but 222 pages of humanism, radical Arminianism, open theism, and the bending, stretching, and editing of Scripture was more than enough. There is much more that could and should be exposed regarding John Eldredge’s book, but time, and the reasonable length of a book review convince me to stop. If I have learned one important ...
