If the thought of reading a theology book is enough to send you to sleep or do anything but pick up a book then this new title by the prolific author, Alistair McGrath will change your whole outlook. Probably his best book yet, and based on a variety of recent lectures, Mere Theology is a page turner that exudes a passion for the subject that will rub off on most readers – whatever their stage of faith. McGrath covers a wide range in a slim volume and eloquently sets out the role, purpose and application of theology in a modern secular world and challenges head on the falsehoods and impoverished ideology peddled by new atheistic movements led by Richard Dawkins et al. This book will excite and enrich both pastors and students as well as the curious or earnest. Buy 2 copies of this book – one to read the other to give away to a friend or leader, it will be money well spent!
