Troubling Questions for Calvinists is uniquely designed to ask the hard questions that rarely seem to be addressed about one of religion's most popular belief systems. Even Calvinism's milder forms raise troubling questions about the nature of God, Christ's atoning death, and the nature of man. Yet, non-Calvinists often share many of the same assumptions underlying Calvinism, such as the doctrine of original sin, innate depravity, and the impossibility of falling away from faith. Can those doctrines withstand close scrutiny? F. LaGard Smith is the author of some twenty-five thought-provoking books on a wide variety of topics, both doctrinal and inspirational. Smith has taught in both graduate and undergraduate university programs for over thirty years. Smith's teaching, lecturing, and writing have contributed keen insight into both the Scriptures themselves and the practical outworking of God's Word in the lives of believers.
