Gulley and Mulholland's provocative and controversial new book If Grace Is True addresses questions of who might really be going to heaven after all.

authenticity

We think that healthy relationships with God, self and others are to be found in authenticity. This means that, although we do not necessarily expose the entirety of our lives to everyone, we will not pretend to others that we are better, healthier or more “together” than we really are. We think that authenticity begets authenticity and phoniness begets phoniness.

character

We think that a person’s character is best judged by ethical standards as opposed to moral ones. Morality seems more concerned with specific behaviors (drinking, smoking etc) whereas ethics are more concerned with principles such as love, justice and humility. In determining the quality of a person’s character, we are far more concerned with the answer to the following question “what is this person like to live with?"
