Through careful biblical analysis and real-life examples, Gail Burton Purath shines a light on popular half-truths that have infiltrated the church, equipping you to recognize distorted teachingsâand replace them with truth. She carefully exposes these errors using Scripture, and gives readers the tools to discern half-truths not directly discussed in the book. Each chapter concludes with a "Digging Deeper" sectionâa short Bible study with questions and suggestions for better understanding.
