9780999284308: The Secular Creed: Engaging Five Contemporary Claims

Synopsis

In this house we believe that

Black Lives Matter
Love Is Love
Gay Rights Are Civil Rights
Womens Rights Are Human Rights
Transgender Women Are Women

You may have seen signs with some of these messages in your neighborhood. They offer us an all-or-nothing package deal in short, a secular creed.

In this provocative book, Rebecca McLaughlin helps us disentangle the beliefs Christians gladly affirm from those they cannot embrace, and invites us to talk with our neighbors about the things that matter most. Far from opposing love across difference, McLaughlin argues, Christianity is the original source and firmest foundation for true diversity, equality, and life-transforming love.
