Product Description: Some books answer our questions, and some books question our answers. Ron Highfield’s book questions our questions and drives us deeper into our answers. It addresses such questions as these: what is thoughtfulness, and why should Christians cultivate this virtue? What is freedom, and is God a threat or support to freedom?
