A brilliant series of case studies on how to apply Scripture to the pressing issues of today. N T Wright covers such topics as science and religion, women in ministry, Christians in politics, environmentalism, and more!
A thoughtful and provocative collection, in the vein of the intellectual spiritual classic *The Weight of Glory*, from N. T. Wright, the influential Bishop, Bible scholar, and bestselling author widely regarded as a modern C. S. Lewis.
An unusual combination of scholar, churchman, and leader, N. T. Wright-hailed by *Newsweek* as "the world's leading New Testament scholar"-is not only incredibly insightful, but conveys his knowledge in terms that excite and inspire Christian leaders worldwide, allowing them to see the Bible from a fresh viewpoint. In this challenging and stimulating collection of popular essays, sermons, and talks, Wright provide a series of case studies which explore how the Bible can be applied to some of the most pressing contemporary issues facing us, including:
* Why it is possible to love the Bible and affirm evolution * Why women should be allowed to be ordained * Where Christians today have lost focus, and why it is important for them to engage in politics-and why that involvement benefits everyone * Why the Christian belief in heaven means we should be at the forefront of the environmental movement * And much more
Helpful, practical, and wise, *Surprised by Scripture* invites readers to examine their own hearts and minds and presents new models for understanding how to affirm the Bible in today's world-as well as new ideas and renewed energy for deepening our faith and engaging with the world around us.
