Trent Horn - Hard Sayings: A Catholic Approach to Answering Bible Difficulties (EPUB, MOBI, PDF)

Have you ever read something in the Bible and just scratched your head, or been challenged by a skeptic to explain a seemingly scandalous verse? You re not alone. The Bible contains more than a few hard sayings (John 6:60): ancient idioms, apparent contradictions, myth-like events and figures, and passages that seem to be embarrassingly out of step with modern culture or science. Trent Horn can help. In Hard Sayings, Trent looks at dozens of the most confounding passages in Scripture and offers clear, reasonable, and Catholic keys to unlocking their true meaning.

Review

"What a desperately needed book! Whether you're a skeptic who thinks the 'dark passages' disprove God, or a faithful Catholic who trusts the Bible but still has a hard time swallowing these verses, this book is a light switch to cast away those shadows." --Brandon Vogt, Content Director at Word on Fire, author of RETURN: How to Draw Your Child Back to the Church

"The Bible is the written Word of God. But it is not always easy to understand. As with many things in a fallen world, difficulties arise. Trent Horn masterfully aids readers in overcoming these difficulties by answering objections to key passages and ideas of the Bible. This book is a helpful, popular tool for apologists, evangelists, and ordinary believers." --Mark Brumley- author, apologist, Pres of Ignatius Press

"Horn's arguments are clear and concise, drawing widely from the best of current scholarship to address the Bible s most difficult passages. More impressively still, he manages to make this content accessible to the ordinary believer while not oversimplifying the issues involved." --Matthew J. Ramage, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Theology at Benedictine College, Author of Dark Passages of the Bible
