Rob Bell

Love Wins

A Book About Heaven, Hell, and the Fate of Every Person Who Ever Lived

Talking Points

Rob Bell is the Founding Pastor of Mars Hill Bible Church in Grand Rapids, Michiganis. He is the only pastor or Christian speaker to go on multiple national and ticketed speaking tours to sold-out audiences. Profiled in Time and other venues, Bell is often described as the most exciting voice in the church today. With a Twitter following of 34,000, he is the most recognizable Christian leader among young adults, a pioneer among those trying to form a new kind of Christian expression.

Description

Bell brings out to the open and faces squarely the questions on everyone’s mind: Does it really make sense that God is a loving, kind, compassionate God who wants to know people in a personal way, but if they reject this relationship with Jesus, they will be sent to hell where God will eternally punish them forever?

In Love Wins Bell goes to the heart of these issues and argues that the church’s traditional understanding of heaven and hell is actually not taught by the Bible. Bell is emphatically not offering a new view of heaven and hell–instead, he closely examines every verse in the Bible on heaven and hell and shows what they really teach. And he discovers that Jesus’s most fundamental teaching about heaven and hell is, “Love wins.”
