    Beskrivning

    Following the huge success of The Tortoise Usually Wins, 2012, and TheBig Picture, 2015, in When Faith Turns Ugly Brian Harris explores whythe Christian faith sometimes wears two masks - usually life-serving andtransforming, but occasionally escapist, illusionary and even poisonous.What are the warning signs that faith is at risk of turning toxic? What dowe mean by the conviction that the gospel liberates? Brian Harris' take onwhat constitutes life-serving faith is refreshing and will be appreciated byall who would like to be sure that their obedience to Jesus the Christ willhelp to build a world with a better name.
