En Defensa de La Verdad

Fe Certera En Un Mundo Confuso

Product Description
En una entrevista de la revista "Christianity Today" realizada en 2012, Ed Stetzer revel que, seg n una investigaci n de LifeWay entre adultos j venes que hab an concurrido regularmente a la iglesia durante al menos un a o en la escuela secundaria, el 70% dej de concurrir regularmente durante al menos un a o entre los 18 y 22 a os de edad. Sin embargo, el 35% hab a vuelto a concurrir dos veces al mes o m s para cuando fueron encuestados en el estudio. Eso significa que aproximadamente 4 de cada 10 j venes se van de la iglesia y NUNCA REGRESAN.
Esta es la forma en que expertos de primera fila describen actualmente a nuestros j venes: No tienen armas espirituales y son incapaces de defender su fe. Tienen una fe que no puede tolerar el estrecho examen de las pruebas o las preguntas intelectuales. Tienen un sistema de creencias de escasa profundidad. Carecen de una fe s lida. No han aprendido a pensar. Ignoran nuestra fe de una manera vergonzosa
En defensa de la verdad ha sido escrito directamente para esa audiencia, a fin de armarla con respuestas bien razonadas a las acusaciones que mayor probabilidad tienen de confrontar en su vida, ya sea como apuntes previos a conferencias y preguntas de examen o como dudas e inquietudes internas. Planteos como... qu le da autoridad o credibilidad a la Biblia? D nde est Dios en un mundo lleno de sufrimiento? Por qu el cristianismo tiene que ser m s cre ble que cualquier otro sistema religioso? Y muchos, muchos m s...
Se trata de un libro f cil de leer pero cargado de contenido y argumento. Es una reacci n sensata frente a quienes comparan la fe cristiana con "una fe ciega," incluso aquellos que se proponen --en forma frontal o sutil-- separar a los estudiantes de su tradici n confesional. Los lectores descubrir n la clase de informaci n hist rica y de destrezas reflexivas que constituir n una robusta estructura para adolescentes y adultos j venes, quienes podr n defender con "una fe razonada" lo que la Biblia afirma como verdad.
El libro, aproximadamente organizado alrededor del escepticismo teol gico de Bart Ehrman, autor de t tulos exitosos del New York Times (y docente de Southern College), consiste en un contraargumento repleto de materiales que los padres desear n comprar para sus hijos. Es una obra que los l deres de j venes y estudiantes desear n para trabajar en discipulado individual y grupal. Puede ser til en situaciones de crisis para la mente y el coraz n de los j venes en todo lugar.


In an interview with Christianity Today in 2012, Ed Stetzer shared that according to LifeWay research among young adults who had attended church regularly for at least a year in high school, 70% stop attending regularly for at least a year between ages 18-22. However, 35% of these had returned to attending twice a month or more by the time they were surveyed for the study. This means that about 4 out of 10 kids leave the church and NEVER RETURN.
Here is how leading experts describe our church kids today: They are unarmed and incapable of defending their faith. They possess a faith that cannot withstand the scrutiny of trials or intellectual questions. They have a shallow belief system. They lack a robust faith. They haven't learned how to think. They are embarrassingly ignorant of our faith.
Truth Matters is written directly to this audience, arming them with well-reasoned responses to the accusations that are most likely to appear in their lives, either as upcoming lecture notes and test questions or as inner qualms and questions. Things like: What gives the Bible any authority orr credibility? Where is God in a world full of suffering? Why should Christianity be any more believable than any other religious system? And many, many more.
Easy to read yet loaded with meat and substance, this book is a level-headed reaction to those who equate Christian faith with "blind faith," even those whose subtle or stated goal is to separate students from their religious traditions. Readers will discover the kind of historical information and thinking skills that build a sturdy backbone of confidence in high schoolers and young adults, making them able to defend by "reasoned faith" what the Bible claims as truth.
Loosely organized around the theological skepticism of New York Times bestselling author (and southern college educator) Bart Ehrman, this jam-packed counterclaim is a book that parents will want to buy for their kids, a book that youth and student leaders will want to work through one-on-one and in discipleship groups--a book that could prove a lifesaver for young minds and hearts everywhere.
