About the Book

'Getting to the Heart of Things' covers a range of key issues very much to the forefront of Christian debate today such as the inspiration and authority of the bible in the face of religious pluralism. How do we interpret the bible itself? And the tension we experience between being people of tolerance and our understanding of truth. Michael Cassidy enters the debate and gives clarity on a range of topics for those who are sometimes confused by the debate within the church itself, let alone from the different views of the world around. Most of all he affirms the uniqueness and divinity of Christ and encourages his readers to grow in Christian life. This is a book that will interest and challenge all Christians from those in the pews to students and ministers. A useful tool for evangelism and a must for every Christian library.
