Or, rather, is the Christian God set apart from all the other gods throughout history?All Set Free sets out to answer some of the more difficult questions Christians today are faced with. It will challenge the Augustinian understanding of hell and the Calvinist understanding of the atonement; replacing them with a more Christ-centered understanding of both doctrines.

Come explore what has become Matthew's theological pilgrimage to this point. Come discover the God of peace.
