I Was Just Wondering

Best-selling author Philip Yancey writes on a diverse range of topics that touch on the fields of history, science, religion, ethics, and more in this new edition of I Was Just Wondering. These stimulating columns originally written for Christianity Today offer readers short, penetrating observations on this universe, the earth, the church, and the Christian life. Questions such as: Why is sex fun? Where did racist hatred come from? Why do so many Christians feel more guilty than forgiven? How do you write or talk about theology in a society that still uses the theological words, but has changed their meanings? What is God like? Why do people show great interest in "near-death experiences" but no interest in death experiences? First published in 1989, this revised and updated edition of I Was Just Wondering offers a level-headed, honest journey into questions that are just as important and challenging to readers today.
