Sin. To most people today the word has the air of a sepia-toned Victorian photograph, quaint and old-fashioned. To those outside the Church, the Christian idea of sin seems bigoted and judgmental. And many within the Church find it frankly embarrassing. Has the day finally come to give it a decent burial? In this new study, the author revisits the whole idea of sin. He tackles head-on the objections to believing in sin, but also challenges the way believers have sometimes presented it to others. The result is a restatement of the historic Christian understanding of what's wrong with the world.
