	"Many are called but few are chosen"? Has God chosen certain people to be saved and certain people to be lost? Or will everyone be saved?
	Christianity Without the Religion Join Pastor Greg Albrecht at www.ptm.org for a new and revolutionary kind of church service. No assembly required . . . at any specific geographic location. Christianity Without the Religion (CWR) comes to you where you are-- a fresh, new approach to weekly worship. Here's just a sample of what you'll experience with CWR.
	In the May-June issue of the award-winning Plain Truth magazine Find out if you're barking up the law tree or the grace tree -- learn what Iran's Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has to do with the book of Esther -- discover how Jesus would have us "do" church -- and much, much more in this exciting and inspiring issue.
	This week's Plain Truth radio schedule Plain Truth radio offers biblically based insight -- insisting on the basic, core teachings of Christianity -- while asking if the gospel is getting lost in religion. Plain Truth radio is all about the main and plain teachings of Jesus Christ. Plain Truth radio is Christianity without the religion. If you can handle the truth, listen to Greg Albrecht on Plain Truth radio. Greg Albrecht is a voice -- not an echo!

	Should Christians "fellowship" with unbelievers? Does 2 Corinthians 6:14  command Christians not to "fellowship" with unbelievers? If so, this would have major implications for the way we live in the world.
	Has my former pastor put a curse on me? Following the departure of his disgraced pastor, a reader and other members of his congregation experience a spate of adversity. Is it possible that the former pastor -- or God -- put a "curse" on this church?
	An online interview with Shack author Paul Young Join Greg Albrecht online in this second interview with Paul Young. For those who have read the book, Paul shares insights on the meaning and message of The Shack. Warning: this interview gives away parts of the plot!
	Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain? A kidnapped daughter is presumed dead. Her father is overwhelmed with grief and anger. When a letter, apparently from God, invites him to the scene of the crime, Mack can’t help but go, and what he finds there will astound you -- and perhaps transform you as much as it did him! This story by William P. Young is a must-read, and you'll want everyone you know to read it! Find out more about this incredible book and how to order your copy.
	Worship Wars Worship wars are still raging -- battles between the supporters of traditional hymns and fans of contemporary Christian music. In many churches, the armies are lined up on either side of a demilitarized zone.
