Reviews
A onetime lawyer with a love for language and justice, Abdu Murray shows how "we have mistaken autonomy for freedom" and how this "quest for autonomy has led us down an endless road with no traffic lights or painted lines." Aligning our hopes and desires with the truth can be costly but also freeing---as Abdu's own story reveals and Jesus poignantly declared. I've had the privilege of speaking and answering questions with Abdu in numerous university open forums. I've witnessed his keen mind, winsome humor, and sensitive spirit touch even the most ardent skeptic or follower of another faith, who have then engaged in conversation with him long after an event. This book is genuinely a breath of fresh air and an invaluable and accessible resource.

Synopsis
Increasingly, Western culture embraces confusion as a virtue and decries certainty as a sin. Those who are confused about sexuality and identity are viewed as heroes. Those who are confused about morality are progressive pioneers. Those who are confused about spirituality are praised as tolerant. Conversely, those who express certainty about any of these issues are seen as bigoted, oppressive, arrogant, or intolerant. This cultural phenomenon led the compilers of the Oxford English Dictionary to name post-truth their word of the year in 2016. How can Christians offer truth and clarity to a world that shuns both? By accurately describing the Culture of Confusion and how it has affected our society, author Abdu Murray seeks to awaken Westerners to the plight we find ourselves in. He also challenges Christians to consider how they have played a part in fostering the Culture of Confusion through bad arguments, unwise labeling, and emotional attacks. Ultimately, Saving Truth provides arguments from a Christian perspective for the foundations of truth and how those foundations apply to sexuality, identity, morality, and spirituality. For those enmeshed in the culture of confusion, the book offers a way to untangle oneself and find hope in the clarity that Christ offers., Western culture embraces confusion as a virtue and decries clarity as a sin, especially with regards to sexuality, morality, identity, and religion. Saving Truth by Abdu Murray describes how we arrived at this stage and provides winsome arguments and touching stories to offer clarity to a culture that rejects but desperately needs it., Increasingly, Western culture embraces confusion as a virtue and decries certainty as a sin.

Ultimately, Saving Truth provides arguments from a Christian perspective for the foundations of truth and how those foundations impart clarity to the biggest topics of human existence: Freedom. Human dignity. Sexuality, Gender, and Identity. Science and Faith. Religious pluralism and Morality. For those enmeshed in the culture of confusion, Saving Truth offers a way to untangle oneself and find hope in the clarity that Christ offers., In Saving Truth, author Abdu Murray sounds the alarm at the confusion being embraced and even celebrated around us, and he responds by offering gospel clarity that can touch the hearts and minds of those in our post-truth culture. Murray equips readers to respond, without anger or retaliation, to people enmeshed in a post-truth mindset in ways that respect the dignity of all, while not compromising on significant issues.

Although the post office took my package on an unexpected world tour, the seller was incredibly responsive and even offered to send a replacement.

- a***l (8)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThis book was exactly what I ordered and wanted. I had tried to purchase it from Amazon previously, but what I received wasn't as described on their website and cost almost twice as much as this book from eBay (fortunately, I was able to get a refund). I'm very happy with this eBay purchase and the timeliness with which it was delivered. I would definitely buy from this seller again and plan to check eBay before making future online purchases.
