520 | _aWhen it comes to sexuality, identity, and morality, feelings and preferences have replaced facts and truth. Those who are confused or ambivalent about such issues are praised as tolerant. Those who express certainty are seen as bigoted, oppressive, or arrogant. Author Abdu Murray awakens westerners to the plight we find ourselves in. Yet he doesn't leave us there in the land of confusion. After accurately describing the plunge our culture is taking, Murray clearly outlines how we can identify and critique the problems that come from abandoning truth. He then demonstrates real-world ways to accurately and compassionately offer gospel clarity to change the direction of our culture. Murray argues from a Christian perspective for the foundations of truth, but he also challenges Christians to consider how they have played a part in fostering a culture of confusion through bad arguments, unwise labeling, and emotional attacks. Ultimately, Murray guides us back to a path of truth that can only be discovered within the unwavering word of God and to a bedrock of hope that can only be realized through the clarity Christ offers. | ||
