Simply Good News by Tom Wright
At last! A new book by our most popular theologian written for anyone interested in popular theology whether believer, agnostic or atheist.
‘Tom Wright is, as always, brilliant at distilling immense scholarship into vivid, clear and accessible form’ * Rowan Williams *
N.T. Wright is the most prolific biblical scholar in a generation. Some say he is the most important apologist since C. S. Lewis. * Christianity Today *
Through his sermonic delivery, which is accessible, stimulating and relevant, Wright deconstructs the false barrier that has been erected between academic and practical theology. As a biblical scholar, he brings us into the world of second temple Judaism and helps us to set the Good News in its Hellenistic context. As a pastor, he gently guides us into prayer, through his meditation on the Lord’s Prayer in the final chapter, giving us lots of suggestions about how we can re-engage with the Gospel as news. -- Eimhin Walsh * The Church of Ireland Gazette *
