Description
Christianity has been around a long time and has always been met with its share of skeptics. Whether you are a believer in Christ or are curious about the Christian worldview and how it approaches hard questions, this is an inspiring read. Equipping Christians to defend their faith, this book tackles difficult questions such as “Doesn’t the Bible Condone Slavery?” or “How Could a Loving God Allow So Much Suffering?”. The author handles these topics and others with much wisdom and grace while using the Bible as the source of truth.
Publisher's Description of Confronting Christianity
Christianity is the most widespread global belief system, and promises to remain so well into the future. But for many educated westerners, biblical Christianity is a dangerous idea—challenging some of their deepest beliefs.
Channeling state-of-the-art research, personal stories, and careful biblical study, Confronting Christianity explores 12 questions that keep many of us from considering faith in Christ. Look more closely, McLaughlin argues, and the reality of suffering, the complexity of sexuality, the desire for diversity, the success of science, and other seeming roadblocks to faith become signposts. Jesus becomes not a relic from the ancient world, but our modern world’s best hope.
