Summary

While William "Paul" Young's story is compelling, many Christians are struggling with the underlying theological implications of The Shack, and that's good—because we need to be discerning in every area of our lives. Biblical discernment is not optional for the Believer—it is imperative! Join me today as I talk about five ways you can learn to become a Berean, and teach your children to do the same.
