A best-selling author and theologian brings new perspective and insight on the great debate between GodP#39;s power versus manP#39;s free will.
Plt;bPgt;A careful guide through Scripture, hand in Hand shows us why GodP#8217;s sovereignty and meaningful human choice work together in a beautiful way.Plt;iPgt;Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;Plt;/iPgt;Plt;/bPgt;Plt;iPgt;If God is sovereign, how can I be free to choose? But if God is not sovereign, how can he be God?Plt;/iPgt;Plt;bPgt;Plt;brPgt;Plt;/bPgt;P#160;Plt;brPgt;Is it possible to reconcile GodP#8217;s sovereignty with human choice? This is one of the most perplexing theological questions. ItP#8217;s also one of the most personal.Plt;brPgt;P#160;Plt;brPgt;In Plt;iPgt;hand in Hand, Plt;/iPgt;Randy Alcorn says that the traditional approach to this debate has often diminished our trust in God and his purposes.
