Questions & Responses Volume 3: The 50 Toughest Questions my Clergy & Counselling Friends are Regularly Asked (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780648566175)

It's OK to ask questions - and perhaps even change your mind.

In Volume 3 of his series Questions and Responses, Rowland Croucher continues to reflect on what he considers are the most common, complex and urgent questions he has been asked in his over fifty years as pastor and counsellor. In the current volume, these include recollections of people who have influenced his thinking and ministry (Tim Costello, Ken R Manley, Richard Rohr, Rod Bowers). He also considers issues of significant importance in the churches and society (getting along with people you live with, what the Bible really says about women - and men; the church's attitudes to LGBTIs; growing old gracefully; death and dying).

And surprising insights into one of the lesser known personalities in the Bible - 'My hero Caleb'.

As in the previous volumes, the author does not pretend to have solid, rock hard answers to the questions and issues raised; only a conviction that the responses he offers may be sources of encouragement, comfort and challenge to those who are committed to being disciples of Jesus in faithfulness and love.
