The Secular Creed: Engaging Five Contemporary Claims

De: Rebecca McLaughlin

Narrado por: Rebecca McLaughlin

"In this house we believe that: Black Lives Matter, Love Is Love, Gay Rights Are Civil Rights, Women’s Rights Are Human Rights, Transgender Women Are Women".

You may have seen signs with some of these messages in your neighborhood. They offer us an all-or-nothing package deal - in short, a secular creed. In this provocative audiobook, Rebecca McLaughlin helps us disentangle the beliefs Christians gladly affirm from those they cannot embrace, and invites us to talk with our neighbors about the things that matter most. Far from opposing love across difference, McLaughlin argues, Christianity is the original source and firmest foundation for true diversity, equality, and life-transforming love.

Helpful book

This book was a great encouragement. There are so many cultural issues to navigate, yet biblical love is crucial.

A must read for today’s church

Grace filled truth with an acknowledgement of where the church has fallen short. Kudos to McLaughlin for researching and tackling these difficult topics.

Timely and hopeful

Struggling to understand how to stand in this moment in history and the cultural divide as a loving, truth telling and truth listening Christian. Rebecca thoughtfully, patiently and lovingly sheds light on the scriptures that show us love and tell us truth. An excellent read. Thought provoking. Still chewing on it.

A must read to engage with our world as it is now.

She touched on so many hot topics that our society is facing and how to engage them well as a believer

A Great Book Addressing Secular Claims

I loved this short little book! Rebecca takes all the populat secular claims and demonstrates that the underlying assumption behind each of them is rooted in a Christian worldview. She also points out sin and hypocrisy within the Christian church and shows how that is part of what led to these secular ideas becoming so popular and portraying Christianity so badly to modern secularists. This book was challenging, informative, and encouraging at the same time. I hope this book helps us each to see how the secular creed falls short of the glory of the gospel!

Helpful, exhorting and educational!!!

Excellent read and helpful to the body of Christ, in exhortation and lovingly reminding how to love others who disagree with us. Truly appreciate her wisdom and grace in sharing these truths!

Truth

She speaks the truth. Really like her logic. Enjoyed it was read by the author

Reçommend this book

What a grounded walk through a complex emotional topic. A moving expression of Christian love with truth intact as God our Creator is honored. Thank you, for your insights into the secular and Christian worldviews of sexuality that were most helpful, where the rubber meets the road of humanity.

Helpful, balanced, insightful, transparent

I would recommend this book to anyone wrestling with these issues. Helpful illustrations that clarify her thoughts.

Small but Mighty Book!

This book is relevant in time and culture! It tackled several hot topics and pulled together scriptures as they pertain to controversial issues. Rebecca’s approach is that of love and understanding while while not compromising Bible truths. Great read!
