This letter from a reader demonstrates how God can use Money, Possessions and Eternity to teach college students about money and giving.

From The Ishbane Conspiracy by Randy Alcorn, Angela (Alcorn) Stump and Karina (Alcorn) Franklin  Dear Foulgrin,I’m pleased our favorite holiday’s coming up in a few weeks. Halloween! It’s official, Foulgrin—these vermin now spend more money on this holiday than any other except Christmas.

The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards.

I personally believe that Christian fiction can be fully honoring to Christ.

Demon assault can be very real. They took on Paul and Jesus, so it's not necessarily a matter of some sin that's giving entrance, as many say.

Your book, Lord Foulgrin’s Letters, was refreshing. I wanted to thank you for writing a book that revisits some of C. S. Lewis’s ideas.

First, we know demons aren’t omniscient, since they’re just angels, created finite beings, and angels don’t know a lot of things, including the time of Christ’s return (Mark 13:32).

I’d recommend a book called Informed Answers to Gay Rights Questions, by Roger Magnuson. I’ve read it and its helpful. Also, a book by R. F. Lovelace, called Homosexuality and the Church.

I did use the word “earn” in a few places in my books Money, Possessions and Eternity and In Light of Eternity. But in its context in both books I used “earn” in the sense of a Christ-empowered obedience resulting in God graciously granting us the rewards he promises.

The Ishbane Conspiracy is a great book for Christian teenagers. The topics, though mature, are completely plausible. Your eyes will be opened to the different evils of the world as the characters experience them. 

I have read most of Randy Alcorn’s books. But Edge of Eternity was one of the few fiction books that changed my life. Even twelve years after reading it the first time, it still impacts me. — J. O.

The “children’s” book Wait Until Then rocked our faith in a good way. 

Can we really know in advance where we’re going when we die? The apostle John, the same one who wrote about the new heavens and New Earth, said in one of his letters, “I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life” (1 John 5:13, emphasis added). 

It is very possible that many Christians do not even recognize the hold that materialism has upon their lives. Alcorn’s work helps us to see just how devastatingly attached we are to our things, and how sadly we miss the joys of giving. — T. P.
