Opis

Are you more spiritual than religious? Have you ever wished for a way to engage the question of faith without suffering the scorn and judgment from those who call themselves Christian? In The Non-Religious Christian, Vern Jones shares his journey growing up constrained by the strict dogma of an evangelical Baptist church to a renewed faith without the myths and restrictive ideology taught by so many churches. Through the eyes of a scientist who has studies the Bible his entire life, Jones debunks many so-called biblical truths and the whole notion of biblical inerrancy. He then puts forth a new and exciting way of looking at faith, without the restrictions placed by organized religions nor the need to e a part of a church to be a Christian. Many of the significant social issues of our time including abortion, stem cell research, school prayer, evolution and the display of the 10 Commandments are addressed in this book with new insights that run contrary to those in the traditional evangelical movement. Vern is not attempting to convert anyone, but simply sharing his years of research with fellow truth seekers to find a faith that they may call their own.
