DESCRIPTION

Every society has its own stories. These stories shape what we think and how we live. We are used to ancient societies having myths. But our modern society has its distinctive myths that can all too easily be accepted as fact.

Philip Sampson explores and evaluates six of today's persuasive myths about Christian belief and the practice of the church. Each myth challenges Christian faith and defends very different views that do not bear much scrutiny. For the truth behind these myths is very different from the usual spin that is put on them.
