Rob Bell is the bestselling author of Love Wins, Velvet Elvis, Sex God, Jesus Wants to Save Christians, Drops Like Stars, and What We Talk About When We Talk About God.

"This evangelical celebration of the love of God will open new
doors for Jesus seekers fed up with the toxic hellfire and
brimstone tirades of fundamentalist Christianity. As that happens,
love wins again!"--Spirituality and Practice
"Bell is at the forefront of a rethinking of Christianity in
America."--Time magazine
"One of the country's most influential evangelical pastors."--New
York Times
"Love Wins will make Christians re-examine their faith and will
help them reclaim a vital and exciting vision of heaven and God's
love."--Relevant
"A bold, prophetic and poetic masterpiece. I don't know any writer
who expresses the inexpressible love of God as powerfully and as
beautifully as Rob Bell! No one who seriously engages this book
will put it down unchanged. A 'must read' book!"--Greg Boyd, senior
pastor at Woodland Hills Church and author of The Myth of a
Christian Nation
"Bell fights every impulse in our culture to domesticate Jesus
[and] challenges the reader to be open to surprise, mystery and all
of the unanswerables. . . . Bell has given theologically suspicious
Christians new courage to bet their life on Jesus
Christ."--Christian Century
"Claiming that some versions of Jesus should be rejected,
particularly those used to intimidate and inspire fear or hatred,
Bell persuasively interprets the Bible as a message of love and
redemption. . . . His style is characteristically concise and oral,
his tone passionate and unabashedly positive."--Publishers
Weekly
"In Love Wins, Rob Bell tackles the old heaven-and-hell question
and offers a courageous alternative answer. Thousands of readers
will find freedom and hope and a new way of understanding the
biblical story - from beginning to end."--Brian D. McLaren, author
of A New Kind of Christianity and Naked Spirituality
"It isn't easy to develop a biblical imagination that takes in the
comprehensive and eternal work of Christ . . . Rob Bell goes a long
way in helping us acquire just such an imagination--without a trace
of soft sentimentality and without compromising an inch of
evangelical conviction."--Eugene H. Peterson, Professor Emeritus of
Spiritual Theology, Regent College, and author of The Message and
The Pastor
"One of the nation's rock-star-popular young pastors, Rob Bell, has
stuck a pitchfork in how Christians talk about damnation."--USA
Today
"This attention-getter of a book ignited a heated popular
conversation about whether God saves people like Gandhi or sends
him and billions of other non-Christians to a fiery and painful
place in the afterlife."--Publishers Weekly, Best Books of the Year
