About this title

Synopsis

Is truth a universal fact, or is it merely a weapon used by the powerful?

In the near-future United States of 2045, the Statute on Religious Authority (SRA) strictly forbids the public defense of absolute religious truth claims. Enter Christian Cross, a fifty-three-year-old professor of apologetics at a small Tennessee university. Already acquitted in six prior trials covering everything from natural theology to theodicy, Cross now faces his most daunting legal and intellectual challenge yet: The seventh trial on his philosophy of truth itself.

Written by prolific scholar and theologian Dr. Alfred Basta, The Truth Trial is a gripping courtroom drama and a profound philosophical exploration rolled into one. Over three intense weeks in a federal courtroom in Knoxville, the prosecution argues that the central Christian claim-that Christ is the Truth-is an act of "imperialism" that must be forbidden in the public square. Armed with the timeless wisdom of Socrates, Augustine, and Aquinas, Professor Cross must defend the very grammar of reality against a brilliant, Oxford-trained prosecutor who seeks to replace absolute truth with the gentler, postmodern concept of "interpretation."

Perfect for fans of theological fiction, legal thrillers, and classical Christian apologetics, The Truth Trial seamlessly weaves high-stakes legal maneuvering with deep discussions on relativism, consciousness, and the philosophy of knowledge. Can the word "Truth" still do public work, or has it become a costume that private convictions wear into the public square?
