Untruth: Exploring truth in a post-truth world (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780645348804)

This is not a book full of answers and proofs of a set position either theologically or socially. It is, however, a book to prompt those questions we often fail to ask; a place where those aspects of faith and culture we take for granted as truth, or have been told are truth, get opened up for discussion and examination to determine whether they actually stand up to close scrutiny. In an era where so much of what we have believed as truth or culturally acceptable seems to have been overthrown for something new and progressive, and there are so many voices shouting that their way is the right way it is vitally important that we reassess our foundations. Are we standing on what we think we are, and are they actually stable or sufficient for the way ahead? This book raises many of those questions to help open us up for conversation and greater understanding and certainty around what we do believe is truth and, more importantly, why we believe it is truth.
