Description

You can’t trust the Bible; it’s been translated too many times. Jesus never claimed to be the Messiah or God. Science has proven that miracles don’t happen (so the Bible is a fairytale). All religions basically teach the same thing (so all paths lead to God). Have you heard these? People say a lot of things about the Bible, God, Jesus, and Christianity that are simply not true. Like the guys on the popular cable show Mythbusters, it’s time we put these commonly held myths to the test. Following a brief summary of a recurring myth or misconception about the Christian faith, Fred explains why the myth is false and provides biblical and historical evidence in his response. He masterfully weaves together serious discussion with a touch of humor in his responses, all the while keeping the focus on the Scriptures. He avoids making fun of the people who hold views which differ from his own, but the views themselves are fair game. So grab a cup of coffee and find a cozy corner. Let’s do a little myth busting of our own.

Endorsements

Recent public challenges to Christianity time and again seem to have been reduced to a series of often-repeated, skeptical sound bites or slogans. In this popularly-written volume, Fred von Kamecke considers more than a dozen of these complaints, finding a variety of reasons to declare that each charge is Busted. I recommend this convenient, well-written handbook that provides a ready set of responses to these popular challenges.
