Synopsis

Confront the lies that hold you back. Discover the truth that sets you free.

Let's face it—the Bible contains passages that are challenging to interpret and can even incite fear. Sure, we want to believe that God's grace applies to our unique troubles: addiction, divorce, habitual sins, or a feeling of distance from God because we don't seem to measure up. Still, perplexing Bible passages eat at us.

Bestselling author and national radio host Dr. Andrew Farley is known to challenge legalistic and lifeless interpretations with his discerning take on controversial Scriptures. In Twisted Scripture, Andrew skewers sacred cows and shatters destructive lies, bringing the undiluted truth about God's love and grace in a colorful and conversational look at the most controversial passages in the New Testament.

This book offers more than just encouragement and freedom. It may change everything about the way you see yourself and God.

Goodreads review by Rachel on March 05, 2024

For the first several chapters, I found myself agreeing with lies that we believe - misunderstandings about what it means to follow Christ or expectations we have place on ourselves, but God does not place on us. But the further I read, the more I found myself disagreeing with the author. Often I fe......more

Goodreads review by Aleassa Jarvis on February 02, 2023

This book is like a hard reset for anyone who is reconstructing beliefs out of a spiritually abusive or legalistic mindset. Very easy read, simple, and to the point.

Goodreads review by Adam on February 07, 2023

4.92 stars, rounded up. Very simply and elegantly written. Not a book that would persuade someone who has a staunch, opposing viewpoint, but very helpful for someone who has just accepted twisted Scriptures without thinking them through, and now is digging deeper. If you’re tired of cliche answers......more
