Reverend Dr Rowland Croucher the Pastor’s Pastor of 45 years says these Q&R series is an attempt to face the 50 top questions people ask to challenge clergy, counsellors and other Christian leaders.
There will probably be five of these volumes, each one dealing with 10-12 key issues.
From the Introduction: 'Notice I do not claim to be omniscient, so 'truth' can be differently discerned from person to person (depending often, I cynically add, upon who had got hold of them when they were impressionable.'
The first volume, published last year, explains the rationale for this strategic series: 'Our title is 'Questions & Responses' not 'Questions & Answers'. There's a reason for that. Individuals can posit 'answers' to many questions that they might have figured out for themselves; but others have travelled a different route that led to different answers.'
Q&R 1 dealt with Big Issues like:
WWJD ('What would Jesus Do?'), Abuse and violence,
Mavericks: what shall we do with today's prophets?,
How to Know the Lord (social justice),
Pharisees Ancient & Modern,
Why most do - but some don't - believe in the existence of God.
Billy Graham: Life, Ministry and Legacy,
Is Gandhi in Heaven? (Christianity and other religions,
Dealing with Grief.
Q&R 2:
Ananias & Sapphira,
John Stott,
Three seminars for church leaders:
What Does a Healthy Church Look Like? ,
Happiness and joy are not the same,
Archbishop Oscar Romero,
Spiritual Direction: an idea whose time has come (again),
Money money money... And more...
