The Humble God

The basics of Christian belief

Densil Morgan

Image of Humble GodAmid the various quarrels that have divided the church recently, is the often repeated concern that many Christians are uneducated in the basics of the faith they profess. One of the main aims of the Archbishop of Canterbury is to improve levels of theological literacy throughout the church. Here is a book that will achieve that very aim. The author, a university teacher of theology, has taken his basic introductory course and adapted it for a lay audience. It addresses the questions that every Christian ought to be asking: how did the Bible come together? Why do we believe it to be true? What is faith? How do we know God? What does it mean to belong to the Church? and much more. Drawing on 2000 years of theological writing and insight, this is a fluent guide to Christian faith.
