Why a book like this? "One of the signs of wisdom as a person of faith," writes Jan Linn, "is recognizing the indispensable role questions play in arriving at good and sound conclusions... The truth about Christianity and all other religions is that none of them has the truth, only approximations to it. That is not a bad thing when you understand that faith is less about having the right answers and more about knowing the right questions to ask in pursuit of knowledge and any truth to which it leads. This is why skepticism is critical to a healthy Christianity. It refuses to let faith settle for answers that are afraid of the questions they raise. In today's America, people attracted to a healthy Christianity are not looking for a message that promotes conformity of belief, but one that is open to questions because it recognizes the value of skepticism in serving as a guide to living well and making the world a better place in the process."
