How can a loving God send people to hell? Isn’t it arrogant to believe Jesus is the only way to God? What is up with holy war in the Old Testament? Many of us fear God has some skeletons in the closet. Hell, judgment, and holy war are hot topics for the Christian faith that have a way of igniting fierce debate far and wide. These hard questions leave many wondering whether God is really good and can truly be trusted. The Skeletons in God's Closet confronts our popular caricatures of these difficult topics with the beauty and power of the real thing. Josh Butler reveals that these subjects are consistent with, rather than contradictory to, the goodness of God. He explores Scripture to reveal the plotlines that make sense of these tough topics in light of God’s goodness. From fresh angles, Josh deals powerfully with such difficult passages as: The Lake of Fire Lazarus and the Rich Man The Slaughter of Canaanites in the Old Testament Ultimately, The Skeletons in God's Close uses our toughest questions to provoke paradigm shifts in how we understand our faith as a whole. It pulls the “skeletons out of God’s closet” to reveal they were never really skeletons at all.

There is a yearning in us all to be a hero, the insatiable call for adventure where we defeat the villains and save the day. But there is also a line that determines what makes us heroes. The same line that questions what we want to do and what must be done. But what if we are not able to differentiate? What if the more we try to beat our demons, the more we realize that we have become them? Brian Bradley understands that there is more to his life than just being a priest; he has the power to save the weak and helpless, but destiny asks him to make a sacrifice he is not ready to. Can he be the hero the world needs? Or will he submit to the demons within
