About the Book

Can We Still Trust the Bible to Lead the Church?

Review :
"[P]robing, provocative, insightful...This is a book of uncommon wisdom for all who read and love the Bible."--Timothy George, Dean of Beeson Divinity School of Samford University and Executive Editor of Christianity Today "In a fashion that is both old fashioned and new fangled at the same time Bishop Wright takes us through a sane and helpful study of what it means to treat the Bible as the authoritative Word of God. Highly Recommended!"--Ben Witherington, author of The Brother of Jesus "N. T. Wright opens for us a path beyond of the paralyzing polarization of "liberal" and "conservative."--Brian McLaren, author of A New Kind of Christian "Scripture and the Authority of God is a fabulous book. With characteristic verve and occasionally pungent grace... Scripture and the Authority of God could be the beginning of a more faithful listening, as well as sustaining more fruitful conversation about the nature of biblical interpretation."--Books&Culture "The best book of its kind available."--The Christian Century "The whole book gives further cause for gratitude for God's gift of Wright to his Church."--ANVIL "This wide-ranging whirlwind-tour account of Scripture channeling God's authority, with its tweaking of distortions back into shape and its first-class approach to Bible study, is masterly throughout."--J. I Packer, Professor of Theology, Regent College "Wright appeals to the reader to take another look at the Bible, not as an isolated phenomenon--a veritable rule book similarly applicable at all times and in all places--but rather as a book better placed within both the contemporary cultural context and as part of a larger tradition of interpretation."--Explorefaith.org "Wright is a provocative theologian... there is so much here that you will wish that it were longer-- but its brevity makes for easy reading and it certainly deserves to be read."--Church of England Newspaper "Wright offers sensible insights on the transforming power of God, very necessary in these times of skepticism and confusion."--Publishers Weekly "Written by one of the leading Christian thinkers in the world today, this book is a refreshing and accessible resource concerning the perennial question of biblical authority that moves the discussion beyond the liberal-conservative impasse of our times. Highly Recommended."--John R. Franke, Professor of Theology, Biblical Theological Seminary [P]robing, provocative, insightful This is a book of uncommon wisdom for all who read and love the Bible. --Timothy George, Dean of Beeson Divinity School of Samford University and Executive Editor of Christianity Today In a fashion that is both old fashioned and new fangled at the same time Bishop Wright takes us through a sane and helpful study of what it means to treat the Bible as the authoritative Word of God.
