Rick Shrader‘s Review:

There is so much written today on being ‘‘user-friendly’’ that we need books such as this one to bring some balance. MacArthur says, ‘‘I do believe we can be innovative and creative in how we present the gospel, but we have to be careful to harmonize our methods with the profound spiritual truth we are trying to convey.’’

MacArthur sounds an alarm over the mad rush to be progressive. His call is to be more concerned with what God thinks than with what the audience thinks. He writes, ‘‘An honest belief in the sovereignty of God in salvation would bring an end to a lot of the nonsense that is going on in the church.’’
