Is The Bible Intolerant? 1

Welcome to Every Thought Captive. I’m Phil Steiger, pastor at Quail Lake Community Church.

Have you ever heard a skeptic dismiss Christianity or the Bible with a slogan like, “the Bible has been changed thousands of times over the years,” or, “more people have been killed in wars over religion than anything else”? If you have, then join the club. I have actually encountered these kinds of slogans in just the last few weeks from people who are desperate to dismiss the truth claims of Christianity.

So what is a good way to counter these kinds of slogans? A new book titled, “Is The Bible Intolerant?” is a wonderful and very readable new tool for the Christian and for the skeptic. In 130 easy to understand pages, the author, Amy Orr-Ewing, tackles these and many other popular slogans head-on. The reader will learn how the books of the Bible were compiled, how reliable they are, and much more. If you want to increase your ability to answer the skeptic, this is a great place to begin.
