They are incorporated into the worldview of our culture. We daily absorb them, and these lies can have deadly effects on individuals, societies and whole civilizations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSharon James investigates the origins of some of these lies and looks at how we have got to the point where ‘my truth’ is as valid as ‘your truth’, and absolute truth is an outdated way of thinking. In examining the evidence of history, she highlights the consequences of applying dangerous untruths. She also looks at how Christians often respond to the culture’s lies – in silence, acquiescence or celebration of them – and why these responses can be as harmful as the lies themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn the second part she turns to the truth which leads to real liberation and justice. She shows why we don’t need to be ashamed of Christ, or intimidated by the claims of those who are militantly opposed to the Bible.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book aims to equip Christians to navigate the minefield of current claims. To understand our inherent human significance, to know genuine freedom, and to work for real justice, we need to know the truth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChapter Headings Include\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart One: The Lies We Are Told\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.

Instead, the world conjured up its own notions of truth and justice. The only antidote is to return to a biblical worldview, which Sharon very deftly lays out in the second half of her book.
