Book launch: Humbler Faith, Bigger God

Thursday 12 May, 6pm BST

Join HeartEdge and Canterbury Press online for the launch of Humbler Faith, Bigger God: Finding a Story to Live By.

Author Samuel Wells will be in conversation with Tom Holland.

Humbler Faith, Bigger God: Finding a Story to Live By

Samuel Wells explores the key tenets of Christian belief by engaging with the most widely used arguments against religious faith - that it's a crutch for the deluded, a fairy tale for the simple minded, the cause of so many wars, a drug for the poor, powerless against suffering, one path among many, and so on.

These are serious accusations against Christianity and Samuel takes them seriously, seeking to understand how and why they have taken hold, what part the church has had in making people so resistant to its message and what better stories it can tell in today's world.
