Reviews"Ever since I readThe Unity Factoralmost twenty years ago, Larry Osborne has been my mentor from afar. Now that Larry is writing books again, he is quickly becoming a go-to author for me, because he speaks my language and deals with my issues. I read everything he writes!" Pete Briscoe, senior pastor, Bent Tree Bible Fellowship and author ofChristianity: A Follower's GuideandSecrets from the Treadmill "A very liberating read, as well as one that will surely deepen your trust in God. Larry takes apart ten commonly held beliefs that don't make sense . . . because they aren't true!" Russ Carroll, CEO, Miva Merchant "InTen Dumb Things Smart Christians Believe, Larry Osborne dismantles many of the ideas that have derailed the faith of sincere Christians for far too long. Larry has the rare capacity to communicate difficult truths in a way that ignites the imagination and disarms the soul. I strongly recommend this book to anyone seeking to develop a deeper and more nuanced faith." Scott Chapman, senior pastor, The Chapel, Illinois "Larry Osborne never fails to compel me to think with greater precision.Ten Dumb Things Smart Christians Believechallenges us to reevaluate what we can so glibly believe and come away with a faith that we can deeply admire." Dr. Wayne Cordeiro, author ofThe Divine Mentor, Doing Church As a Team,andThe Life Journal "I recommend anything that Larry Osborne writes. In reviewingTen Dumb Things Smart Christians Believe,I see that he's hit another homer! InTen Dumb Things Smart Christians Believe, Larry unshackles our souls from things that threaten to destroy us. I'm confident your life will be better after reading this book!" Ron Forseth, vice president, Outreach, Inc., and general editor, SermonCentral.com "Larry Osborne'sTen Dumb Things Smart Christians Believewill help new believers and seasoned Christians alike. People often believe what they'veheardwithout knowingwhy. Larry pierces through widely accepted spiritual legends with common sense and scriptural precision." Craig Groeschel, pastor of LifeChurch.tv and author ofConfessions of a Pastor "This is Larry Osborne at his best: scripturally sound, brutally honest, and dripping with grace. He has the guts to blow up myths that have lingered for far too long. Whether you've been reading your Bible for years or just bought your first one yesterday, you should listen to this gracious, but straightforward, wisdom." Greg Holden, pastor, Windsor Crossing Community Church, Chesterfield, Missouri "This book will liberate you from faulty assumptions about God and life that keep us trapped or looking like naive fools. Larry Osborne has brought practical and biblical wisdom to bear on some beliefs that we never should have held and that have always confused us. His chapters on forgiving and on judging alone are worth the price of the book." Mel Lawrenz, senior pastor, Elmbrook Church and author ofI Want to Believe "This is averyimportant book that has needed to be written for a very long time. With patience and clarity, Larry clearly dissects the erroneous beliefs that masquerade as faith. He helps us wade through the nonsenseinaccurate and misguided ideas we cling toand guides us to an understanding that results in a winsome, authentic faith . . . the kind of faith we all long for." Nancy Ortberg, founding partner, Teamworkx2 and author ofLooking for God "Larry Osborne blends pastoral

SynopsisIn this delightfully personal and practical book, respected Bible teacher Larry Osborne confronts ten widely held beliefs that are both dumb and dangerous. People don't set out to build their faith upon myths and spiritual urban legends. But somehow such falsehoods keep showing up in the way that many Christians think about life and God. These goofy ideas and beliefs are assumed by millions to be rock-solid truth... until life proves they're not. The sad result is often a spiritual disaster: confusion, feelings of betrayal, a distrust of Scripture, loss of faith, anger toward both the church and God. But it doesn't have to be so. Respected Bible teacher Larry Osborne confronts ten widely held beliefs that are both dumb and dangerous, including: - Faith can fix anything - God brings good luck - Forgiving means forgetting - Everything happens for a reason - A godly home guarantees good kids Get ready to be shocked, relieved, and inspired in the pages of Ten Dumb Things Smart Christians Believe .
