Christianity

In this stimulating guide to Christian belief, Keith Ward takes a broad sweep from the Big Bang through the Old Testament to the New Testament, and beyond, into the history of the faith, modern theological thinking and human destiny. Professor Ward does not duck the hard questions posed by the Church's history; nor does he shrink from the challenges raised by the Enlightenment and modern science.  
  
Divided into short sections that provide pithy and imaginative approaches to the big questions, this thought-provoking book offers clarity, awe and inspiration in equal measure. The author also explores contemporary strands of Christian thinking and relates them sensitively and intelligently to world-faith and non-faith viewpoints.
