Book excerpt: In the opening lines of this inspiring and stimulating work, Dr. Harkness says, "The purpose of this small book is to stat the timeless truths of the Christian faith in terms relevant to the perplexities and confusions, the aspirations, joys, and sorrows of modern man in a troubled world. In short, we shall try to see not only what Christians are entitled to believe but also how these beliefs 'count' in the business of living." Writing with her usual clarity and appeal to the layman, Dr. Harkness gives stirring affirmations of faith which present an illuminating picture of Christianity--what stands behind it, what makes it vital, and what makes it so applicable to every generation. Included in the twelve brief chapters are discussions of Christian belief in God, Christ, the Holy Spirit, the Bible, the church, and other aspects of our faith. Here is a book which will provoke honest inquiry and provide a foundation for forthright discussion among all who read it. -Publisher
