Schouppe, S.J., reviews the basic Catholic doctrines on hell and adds numerous reports, apparitions of the damned and visions of the bottomless pit that make the reality of hell, and the dread of its torments, come alive like no horror movie can.

It's no easy journey disentangling the good news of the gospel from the toxic theologies that have rendered Jesus unrecognizable. It's no wonder the church has sent many walking.

Gladd explains the dominant biblical-theological themes in the Gospel of Luke, including the defeat of evil, peace in heaven and earth, the incorporation of the nations, and the kingdom of God.

Many Christians are scared, worried and anxious about the future. They are in a spiritual fog and are baffled by the many prophecies and events of the end times and what they mean.

American Christianity tends to view disabled persons as problems to be solved rather than people with experiences and gifts that enrich the church. Churches have generated policies, programs, and curricula geared toward "including" disabled people while still maintaining "able-bodied" theologies, ministries, care, and leadership. Ableism--not a lack of ramps, finances, or accessible worship—is the biggest obstacle for disabled ministry in America.
