Love Wins (Enhanced Edition)
Love Wins (Enhanced Edition): A Book About Heaven, Hell, and the Fate of Every Person Who Ever Lived | Rob Bell
This enhanced edition of LOVE WINS includes extras such as the complete LOVE WINS COMPANION as well as the book trailer video that started it all and ten brand-new videos featuring Rob Bell discussing each of the chapters. In LOVE WINS, bestselling author of VELVET ELVIS and the 2 million-plus selling Nooma videos, Rob Bell, reveals a secret deep in the heart of millions of Christians-they don?t believe what they have been taught are the essential truths of their faith. Bell brings out to the open and faces squarely the questions on everyone?s mind: Does it really make sense that God is a loving, kind, compassionate God who wants to know people in a personal way, but if they reject this relationship with Jesus, they will be sent to hell where God will eternally punish them forever? Bell goes to the heart of these issues and argues that the church?s traditional understanding of heaven and hell is actually not taught by the Bible. Bell is emphatically not offering a new view of heaven and hell-instead, he closely examines every verse in the Bible on heaven and hell and shows what they really teach. And he discovers that Jesus?s most fundamental teaching about heaven and hell is, "Love wins."

I remember when this book came out, and people were so angry about it! I finally picked it up and wish it had been around when I was a teen. It would have saved me a lot of grief and anxiety. Bell's fresh perspective challenges verses used to rule by fear, and reinforces that God is steadfast, great, and ALWAYS loving. (I enjoyed the casual tone of the audiobook, although sometimes he'd get on a roll and speak in breathless run-on sentences. 😂)
