The Rev. Robert Schuller, on the road promoting his book, "The Be (Happy) Attitudes," an examination of positive thinking drawn from Christ's Beatitudes in 1986. In a 1986 interview with RNS, Dr. Schuller said, "I don't want to produce Christians who get hung up on what's a sin and what is not a sin. But I want to deal with the essential subject of the deepest problem that plagues the human person, and that's sin. Sin in a lack of faith." Religion News Service file photo

No paywalls here. Thanks to you.
As an independent nonprofit, RNS believes everyone should have access to coverage of religion that is fair, thoughtful and inclusive. That's why you will never hit a paywall on our site; you can read all the stories and columns you want, free of charge (and we hope you read a lot of them!)

But, of course, producing this journalism carries a high cost, to support the reporters, editors, columnists, and the behind-the-scenes staff that keep this site up and running. That's why we ask that if you can, you consider becoming one of our donors. Any amount helps, and because we're a nonprofit, all of it goes to support our mission: To produce thoughtful, factual coverage of religion that helps you better understand the world. Thank you for reading and supporting RNS.
