This is a short collection of essays dealing with themes that are being hotly debated, in particular about what sort of book the Bible really is. Is it to be thought of, as the tradition claims, as the directly inspired and authoritative Word of God, and if not, and probably not, then how? What are we to make of proposed modern alternatives, in particular a science-based humanism? Within the Christian community itself there is a noisy debate about homosexuality, and a more muted, but just as insistent, doubt about what sort of Resurrection and Second Coming we really believe in.
