Publisher's Synopsis
The Bible is at the heart of Christian faith since it tells us about God and Jesus Christ. But in the last 50 years scholars seem to have torn the Bible to pieces and cast doubt on whether it is true. In reaction to this some people ignore modern scholarship, while others have simply stopped reading the Bible at all, both of which reactions are wrong. In this book Nicolas Stebbing guides us to see that, far from being a problem, this scholarship enriches our experience of Scripture and deepens our faith in God.
