Popular thinker, speaker, pastor and author Brian Zahnd tackles the widespread and erroneous theology of an angry, vindictive god. Pastor Zahnd passionately rejects this distortion by pointing to the God who is revealed in Jesus Christ, the God who is unconditional love.

God's attitude toward you is one of unwavering, unconditional, fatherly/motherly love. You have nothing to fear from God. Rather than constantly being disappointed by our failures and mistakes, God looks with unconditional love upon all his sons and daughters...even the prodigals.

In Sinners in the Hands of a Loving God: The Scandalous Truth of the Very Good News, Pastor Zahnd invites you to experience the stunning reality of divine love that breaks the conventional mold of fear-based theology.
