Description
This considered work of fundamental Catholic theology answers major questions on the concept of Christian credibility.
Through a methodical and incisive exploration, Woimbée takes you through credibility's constituent elements, its roots in the Bible and in the intellectual tradition of the Church.
In doing so, this work reveals key elements of credibility by forensically examining the historicity of Christ, the meaning of miracles and the significance of prophecies. Woimbée also tackles credibility from Ecclesiastical perspective, by expanding on the relation between Church and the Christ, Holiness and the responsibilities of the Christian people. This is an important work for those interested in church life, mission and evangelisation.
