Truth or Tradition? (Paperback or Softback)

Traditions hold significant meaning in our lives-in our nation, in our families, in our schools, in our sporting events, and in our churches. Some traditions are worth preserving; others require reevaluation.

Wesner's Truth or Tradition? examines the church's directive to share the gospel. Most Christians recognize the words of the great commission: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you" (Matt 28:18-20). How to accomplish the great commission remains less clear.

Perhaps no better example for sharing the good news exists than Jesus himself. Wesner explores Jesus's approach in each of the book's three sections-the characteristics, principles, and purposes of the gospel-distinguishing between church tradition and biblical truth.
