Blessed Contradictions

"Michael Anderson writes with humor, insight, and theological integrity. While challenging some common assumptions, he offers the reader a creative and engaging view into the biblical story."

--Rick Rouse, pastor, author, speaker, and church consultant



"The Bible is a book with multiple voices. It invites readers to join an ongoing conversation about God, ourselves, and the world in which we live. Michael Anderson offers a highly readable guide to the conversation. He uses different biblical perspectives in a lively and engaging way. Discussion questions for each chapter make the book easy to use for different kinds of groups. A welcome and accessible resource."

--Craig Koester, Luther Seminary



"Michael Anderson starts with the complexities and seeming contradictions of the biblical narrative. He both clarifies the complexities and contradictions and uses them as gateways to deeper meaning. It is a powerful book."

--Daniel Hofrenning, St. Olaf College
