Best-selling author Philip Yancey writes on a diverse range of topics that touch on the fields of history, science, religion, ethics, and more in this new edition of <i>I Was Just Wondering</i>. These stimulating columns originally written for <i>Christianity Today</i> offer readers short, penetrating observations on this universe, the earth, the church, and the Christian life. Questions such as: <ul> <li>Why is sex fun?</li> <li>Where did racist hatred come from?</li> <li>Why do so many Christians feel more guilty than forgiven?</li> <li>How do you write or talk about theology in a society that still uses the theological words, but has changed their meanings?</li> <li>What is God like?</li> <li>Why do people show great interest in "near-death experiences" but no interest in death experiences?</li> </ul> First published in 1989, this revised and updated edition of <i>I Was Just Wondering</i> offers a level-headed, honest journey into questions that are just as important and challenging to readers today.<br>
