Synopsis

If God is sovereign, how can I be free to choose? But if God is not sovereign, how can he be God? Is it possible to reconcile God’s sovereignty with human choice? This is one of the most perplexing theological questions. It’s also one of the most personal. In hand in Hand, Randy Alcorn says that the traditional approach to this debate has often diminished our trust in God and his purposes. Instead of making a one-sided argument from select verses, Alcorn examines the question in light of all Scripture. By exploring what the whole Bible says about divine sovereignty and human choice, hand in Hand helps us… · Carefully and honestly examine the different views on this issue· Gain a deeper understanding of God· Appreciate God’s design in providing us the freedom of meaningful choice· See the value in better understanding what we cannot fully understand· Learn how to communicate about the issue in clear and compassionate ways· More fully experience the unity Christ intends for his Church A careful guide through Scripture, hand in Hand shows us why God’s sovereignty and meaningful human choice work together in a beautiful way. Includes small-group discussion questions.

This is the best book I have ever read on predestination (and I have dug into that topic in the last few years with personal interest in it). It handles well both truths - God's sovereignty and man's free choice. I loved the book! Randy Alcorn skillfully goes through definitions and different opinion......more

Goodreads review by Ryan on April 26, 2024

I love Alcorn's approach to his books, and appreciate his tone so much. He went from being an Arminian to a 4-point Calvinist, but he maintains a balance that eschews hyper-calvinism and maintains the position that the Scriptures ought to speak for themselves. I appreciate that. This book is not a v......more

Goodreads review by James on January 11, 2023

This is the first book I've read that covers the topics of sovereignty and free will. As a starting point for my own intellectual investigation into these significant and often controversial topic I really appreciated the authors nuanced and sensitive approach to all the different view points. His r......more

Goodreads review by Nikolas on November 02, 2016

If you’ve never read any of Alcorn’s work, do yourself a favor and grab one – any one. Alcorn is a deep thinker who delves into the implications of the plain text of Scripture with a boldness I’ve seldom read elsewhere. This book is his contribution to the Calvinism (God’s will saves and man has no......more
