An Introduction to Christianity for a New Millennium

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book introduces Christianity without presupposing prior knowledge. It gives a brief, but surprisingly comprehensive, summary of the scriptures, history, doctrines, rituals, and types of Christianity. It also deals with contemporary issues: homosexuality, the role of women, the relationship between faith and science. The Christian author explains what he believes and helps readers discover where they disagree. An Introduction to Christianity for a New Millennium should be useful for Christians and non-Christians.
