Fools Rush in Where Monkeys Fear to Tread: Taking Aim at Everyone

A pithy collection of the best of Carl Trueman's articles on culture and the church. A compelling, challenging, and sometimes uproarious look at how the world and the church intersect.

Theological essays are dusty, humourless affairs aren't they? Well, they don't have to be! This is the second collection of essays by Carl Trueman.

Evangelical Theology has long sought to provide people with solid ground on which to base their understanding of God, the world and themselves. For many years the theological journal 'Themelios' (which means 'solid ground' in Greek) has played an important part in that endeavour with its articles written for non-experts by world-renowned evangelical theologians on topics of perennial interest. …
