About the Book

Sunday School Lessons for Agnostics and Others Who Wonder is a straightforward and unconventional approach to explaining God, His love, and the teachings of the Bible as they relate to certain Christian doctrines that bother unbelievers.

Author Richard B. Backus puts these issues in a useful context and helpful perspective for those who are troubled about the idea of "blind obedience," which is encouraged by many religions. He aims to promote the development of individual faith and delves into a number of questions, such as:

  • Is faith important? Is it real?
  • Does it do any good to pray?
  • Who is Jesus, really?
  • Is Holy Communion divine cannibalism?
  • Heaven or Hell: Are there such places?
  • What does God require of me?

    You will encounter many doubts in your journey of faith, but how you resolve these doubts will define your relationship with God. If you don't know God, your behavior will demonstrate the absence of God in your life. Your faith is there to guide you, but it changes daily-and it must be relevant daily. Only God can save you-and He will, because God loves you unconditionally-and there's nothing you can do about it!
