'Why can't you be more tolerant? Surely Jesus isn’t the only way to know God.' Christians increasingly face this challenge in today’s fragmented society. Does tolerance mean we have to accept every perspective as equally true? Can we still stand up for the uniqueness of Christ and for Christian morality? Truth Wars: Talking About Tolerance is an accessible and exciting introduction to thinking about these issues.
The innovative Talking About series helps Christians to engage with today's issues, whether we are standing at the front of a church, or talking casually with our friends. Each book in the series explores the central issues and what the Bible has to say on the subject. It also includes chapters and study guides on relevant films, books and television programmes, making it ideal for use by small groups as well as by individuals.
'Intelligent and accessible, the Talking About books are ideal for anyone who wants to engage effectively with today's big issues.' - Rich Cline, Editor of Idea Magazine.
