Killing Calvinism is a tremendous book by Greg Dutcher. In the book Dutcher gives eight ways that Calvinists can throw on the brakes to the resurgence of Calvinism and kill a perfectly good theology. I would encourage you to also check out my review of the book as well as the TweetNotes.
#1 Calvinism isn’t the goal, it’s the windshield. #leadstoGod?#promotesholiness?
#2 Being like Christ is the goal not being like Calvin. Good theology w/cold affections=garbage theology.
#3 God is more than sovereign. #allHisperfections #allHisexcellencies
#4 God’s Sovereignty should compel life and lips of mission not laziness
#5 God uses and speaks through non-Calvinists, don’t read and listen like He doesn’t
#6 Every verse matters. God doesn’t need spin-doctors. #letthetextspeak
#7 A prideful Calvinists, though all too common, is an oxymoron #andamoron
#8 Be honest with your discomfort and empathetic with the discomfort of others #lovethosethatdiffer
This book is very helpful and I recommend it for Calvinists and non-Calvinists alike. You can purchase it on your Kindle for about 5 bucks or get the hard copy for under 10.
