Why bother with the Bible?
Of all the books in the world, the Bible sticks out like a sore thumb.
For some, it's uniquely and divinely inspired, and thus the only authoritative source of truth.
For others, it's a quaint relic from a bygone era that offers personal comfort to some but little more to anyone else.
For still others, the Bible is a tool of sexist oppression, or a reactionary account of a violent God, or an arrogant detractor of other holy books, or even an indecipherable mess.
But the Bible has withstood such criticism over the centuries, and as Amy Orr-Ewing shows, it bears surprising relevance to this generation. Facing contemporary critics square-on, with refreshing honesty and wit, Is the Bible Intolerant? will help you understand the Bible and the world it inhabits today.
Bring your questions about the Bible, read with an open mind, and discover for yourself just how relevant-But how good-the Good Book can be.
