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 provides 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."
