Half Truths

True or false: 1. Everything happens for a reason. 2. God helps those who help themselves. 3. God won’t give you more than you can handle. 4. God said it, I believe it, that settles it. 5. Love the sinner, hate the sin. All true? Not so fast. We’ve heard these phrases all of our lives, but in Adam Hamilton’s new book, Half Truths, you’ll learn that although they capture some element of truth, when compared to the wisdom found in Scripture, they’re really just common Christian clichés. The five-week, DVD study can be used in small groups or as a churchwide program where all ages explore the topics at the same time. Leader Guides for adult and youth are also available.

Join Adam Hamilton in Exploring Popular Sayings that Miss the Point.

They are simple phrases. They sound Christian—like something you might find in the Bible. We’ve all heard these words. Maybe we’ve said them. They capture some element of truth, yet they miss the point in important ways.

In this new paperback edition, join Adam Hamilton in searching for the whole truth by comparing common Christian clichés to the message and ministry of Jesus including:
- Everything happens for a reason.

- God helps those who help themselves.

- God won’t give you more than you can handle.

- God said it, I believe it, that settles it.

- Love the sinner, hate the sin.

Half Truths is also part of a small-group experience that includes a DVD, Leader Guide, and a youth study.
