Faith Matters
A comprehensive introduction to Christianity and Christian faith. The title of this book is intentionally and provocatively ambiguous. Faith is more than matters of fact. It involves relationship and trust, a belief in and not simply a belief that. For those who are interested in matters of faith, or those just enquiring, here is a valuable introduction to all aspects of Christianity and Christian faith in a brief and accessible form. You'll find short but informative articles written by a wide range of authors who bring their experience and expertise from different denominations and traditions, giving richness to what is offered here. Whether it is matters of information or a matter of people's relationships with God and one another, it remains true that faith matters. Authors: Alan Bartlett Claire Benton-Evans Rupert Bristow Tony Castle John Clark Peter Colwell Helen Costigane John Cox Paul Cox Tim Elbourne Brian Fahy Richard Garrard Jonathan Greener James Halsall Annie Heppenstall Russell Herbert Garth Hewitt Simon Hill Ed Hone Deborah Jones Bruce Kent Nicholas King Bill Merrington Alison Moore Chris Morley Paul Nicholson Siobhán O'Keeffe Gerald O'Mahony John Parr Tony Redman Robert Reiss Clare Richards Edgar Ruddock John Saxbee David Schofield Ray Simpson Joy Tetley David Winter
