Rescuing the Bible from Fundamentalism: A Bishop Rethinks the Meaning of Scripture Trade paperback - 1992

by John Shelby Spong

  • Used
  • Paperback

Now in paperback, the provocative national bestseller that issues a daring call for contemporary understanding of scripture. Outspoken and controversial, Bishop Spong brilliantly reclaims the Bible from the narrow-minded literalism that has been used to justify slavery, ban textbooks, deny the rights of gays and lesbians, subordinate women, and justify war and revenge.
