When it comes to religion—and more specifically, Christianity—”God” is a divisive issue. Either you’re a believer who loves him, or an atheist (or other spiritual believer) who denounces his existence and hates him. Who is right? Which side got it correct?

Carlson’s new book Atheistic Christianity, the topic of “God” transcends conventional belief systems as the author encourages listeners to cultivate a different view.

The Bible. God inspired it. But who wrote it? The Bible is called "the Word of God" because God inspired it, but that's not precisely the same as saying that He wrote it. In fact, the Bible itself contains dozens of statements showing who the human authors were.

The entire Christian faith depends on the belief that Jesus of Nazareth rose from the dead. If there was no empty tomb, Christians have an empty faith. But how can we be confident the resurrection really happened? In this concise booklet, author Timothy Paul Jones addresses the doubts and questions that arise from Jesus's resurrection as recorded in the New Testament. Jones argues this story is not a mere repetition of old pagan tales or a fabrication to fulfill Jewish expectations.
