World Religions In Seven Sentences
$18.99
Understanding the beliefs and practices of other faiths is essential not just to the task of interreligious dialogue, but also to grasping one’s own faith.
In this brief volume in IVP Academic’s Introductions in Seven Sentences, philosopher Douglas Groothuis creatively uses a single sentence representing each of several world religions as a way to open readers to their depth and complexity, including:
*Atheism: “God Is Dead.”
*Judaism: “I Am Who I Am.”
*Hinduism: “You Are That.”
*Buddhism: “Life Is Suffering.”
*Daoism: “The Dao That Can Be Spoken Is Not the Eternal Dao.”
*Christianity: “Before Abraham Was, I Am.”
*Islam: “There Is One God, and Mohammad Is His Prophet.”
With a sympathetic but not uncritical approach, Groothuis welcomes readers to a vital and global conversation.
The accessible primers in the Introductions in Seven Sentences collection act as brief introductions to an academic field, with simple organization: seven key sentences that give readers a birds-eye view of an entire discipline.

In a style similar to C.S. Lewis’s popular works, Wright breaks down the barriers that prevent Christians from fully engaging with the story of Jesus. For believers confronting the challenge of connecting with their faith today, and for readers of Timothy Keller’s The Reason for God, Wright’s Simply Jesus offers a provocative new picture of how to understand who Jesus was and how Christians should relate to him today.
