Turnerville—an imaginary place where people take time to think and discuss real issues without condemnation or sarcastic cracks.

In an age of hurried communication via e-mail, text messages, instant messaging, and cell phones, a place like Turnerville sounds really appealing—doesn’t it?

Written by Randy Newman, Gold Medallion nominee for Questioning Evangelism, this book allows readers to learn new conversational skills by eavesdropping on important dialogues that grapple with hot-button issues such as:

            • Why does God allow suffering?
            • Why should we believe the Bible?
            • Is Jesus really the only way?
            • Can we know about life after death?

We hear discussions on these kinds of topics, but rarely are they presented in a way that promotes respect without compromise, listening without patronizing, and convictions without arrogance. That’s all about to change. So pull up a seat; we have a lot to discuss.

Randy Newman has worked with Campus Crusade for more than twenty-five years. He currently works in the Washington, D.C., area, interacting with students, professors, and officers at the Pentagon. He is a frequent conference speaker and specializes in helping people of different backgrounds dialogue about issues of faith.
