What about Free Will?: Reconciling Our Choices with God's Sovereignty
Books at a Glance
Publisher's Description
Christensen explains two views that acknowledge God’s sovereignty and its relation to human responsibility: compatibilism and libertarianism. Providing cogent, biblical answers, Christensen argues for compatibilism and shows how it makes sense of evil, suffering, prayer, evangelism, and sanctification. You will gain a deeper understanding of both arguments, as well as a greater appreciation for the significant role that choices play in God’s work.

Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“Many think that free will is the silver-bullet answer to some of theologys most difficult questions. But do we have a free will? Short answer: it depends on what you mean by free. Long answer: read this book.”
Andrew Naselli
Bethlehem College and Seminary
“Careful in description and argument . . . eminently readable. . . . Most important of all, this book breathes a spirit of wonder and gratitude before the face of a God who is not only all-powerful but good.”
Michael Horton
Westminster Seminary California
“A clear, intelligent, immensely helpful overview of one of the most confusing conundrums in all of theology. . . . Scott Christensen doesnt sidestep the hard questions. The answers he gives are thoughtful, biblical, satisfying, and refresh- ingly coherent. Lay readers and seasoned theologians alike will treasure this work.”
John F. MacArthur
