In Lies From The Pulpit, author Connie Wiedeman points to Scripture that labels, as liars, such international Christian leaders as Billy Graham, Pat Robertson, Robert Schuller, Charles Stanley ... even the Pope! As evidenced by the unprecedented success of the Left Behind series, nothing seems to be more in the forefront of the minds of Christians (or is to them more fascinating) than biblical prophecies or other matters relating to their eternal destination. Since people everywhere resist any challenge to their long-held, deeply-felt beliefs (no matter how correct the challenge nor how wrong the belief), Lies From The Pulpit will surely find a place high on the "must-read" list and its author at the top of the "hit-list" of most Christian denominations.

You will meet in these pages a traveler without tickets, a lonely frog, and a reluctant consumer, seen with appreciation from the writer's unique point of view. Others are a small-town schoolboy, a farmer who loves his land, and a grandfather whose late-model car "has everything on it." The modern-day manipulators in suits and ties are here, along with the kindly old woodsman of the nursery tale and a wolf who openly deplores his loss of habitat. In these essays, individuals and families share the joys and challenges of their own times and seasons, having much to gain if the world can go forward without increased rumblings with wheels.

In "The Top 10 Stinking Lies From The Pulpit," Rick White challenges ten beliefs that are taught in many churches today. A few of these are taught in nearly every church. Rick uses an abundance of verses to debunk these Christian "myths" that have caused the faith of many to be shipwrecked. Your theological notions very well may be challenged while reading. That is the express purpose of this book - to shed the light of Scripture on some very common false teachings. With humility and humor, Rick leaves you with confidence in the grace of God. If you trust in your own human nature to be good and holy, you may hate this book. But, if you read to the end, you may be set free from legalism and religion, and you will see the Amazing Grace of God in a new way.

What is it like to be a preacher or rabbi who no longer believes in God? In this expanded and updated edition of their groundbreaking study, Daniel C. Dennett and Linda LaScola comprehensively and sensitively expose an inconvenient truth that religious institutions face in the new transparency of the information age—the phenomenon of clergy who no longer believe what they publicly preach. In confidential interviews, clergy from across the ministerial spectrum—from liberal to literal—reveal how their lives of religious service and study have led them to a truth inimical to their professed beliefs and profession. Although their personal stories are as varied as the denominations they once represented, or continue to represent—whether Catholic, Baptist, Episcopalian, Methodist, Mormon, Pentecostal, or any of numerous others—they give voice not only to their own struggles but also to those who similarly suffer in tender and lonely silence. As this study poignantly and vividly reveals, their common journey has far-reaching implications not only for their families, their congregations, and their communities—but also for the very future of religion.

Could many churchgoing Christians be getting a diluted Christianity—one that diminishes the loving, giving, personal God who provides the believer everything in life? Author Steve McVey passionately but unwittingly taught from the pulpit the very lies he now exposes. Forthrightly but humbly, he shows how pastors and churches can end up distorting scriptural truths because of their preconceptions. Opening up the Scriptures freshly, Steve examines typical problems such as Leaving out half of the truth: “Becoming a Christian means having your sins forgiven.” (We also are made alive!) Using “shorthand” that promotes an unbiblical view: “Our sins are under the blood of Jesus.” (Far better, they’ve been taken away!) Confusing our role with God’s: “Salvation is giving your life to Christ.” (More important, He gives His life to us!) Readers will see that God’s undiluted truth is always best...and brings a fulfilling, close relationship with Him.
