Does the Bible condone warfare and slavery? Isn't the New Testament's teaching on sex outdated? Surely there's not a literal heaven and hell?
These are just some of the questions that popular Bible teacher and theologian Andrew Ollerton asks as he helps us navigate the most challenging topics in the Bible.
Understanding the Bible isn't easy. God's Book follows the biblical plotline from Genesis to Revelation and reveals how to make sense of difficult passages by considering them in their original setting. When we understand the creation story in its ancient context, we won't need to choose between science or the Bible. When we appreciate that the conquest of Canaan was a unique moment in history, these passages won't justify violence today.
The Bible's 7 toughest topics:
- science and evolution versus creation
- slavery and Old Testament laws
- warfare and violence
- suffering
- miracles and exorcisms
- sex
- heaven, hell and judgement
Andrew concludes each chapter with a letter to a young adult, giving practical advice on each topic. God's Book is for anyone who is spiritually curious about Christianity and wants to know how to understand the Bible, and for Christians who want to share their faith more confidently in today's culture.
