| | | RHB will have some titles coming out that many people have been longing for. The "Almost Christian" is a popular title, and important, if however, it is really for more mature Christians.
If RHB has enough demand that would warrant a reprint, they will do it. They just don't want to get into the habit of advertising potential reprints, but not have the resources to bring them to light.

What's wrong with Mead's Almost Christian Discovered? I thought it was a fantastic book.

As for Almost Christian, it is a classic aimed at shaking carnal security in nominal believers. Beeke and Pederson say, "Caution should be exercised in giving this book to new converts because its contents could discourage them." |

A book like Mead's could lead to too much introspection. | |
