For those seeking truth in a post-truth society

Addresses challenges to Christian truth claims today

You will deepen your understanding of faith and truth

This insightful book examines Christianity's role in a secular world.

Together the essays in this volume seek to explore the place of Christianity, the Church and their claims to uphold the truth in an age of 'post-truth'.

Beginning with a consideration of truth within the biblical tradition, the chapters come from historical, theological and philosophical starting points in their concerns, setting out the groundwork for discussions of Christian truth and science, prayer, ethics and the liturgy.

  • Truth and the Biblical Tradition (Nicholas Taylor)
  • The Origins of Truth in Philosophy and Theory (David Jasper)
  • Truth and Christian Theology (Jenny Wright)
