Why We Have More Information but Are Less Informed
Which media outlets will help me be a responsible news consumer? How do I know what is true? Whom can I trust? How can I combat misinformation and lessen its impact on the people I love?
Many of us agonize over questions such as these, feeling unsure and overwhelmed in today's chaotic information environment. American life and politics are suffering from a knowledge crisis, and the church is no exception.
In Untrustworthy, seasoned journalist Bonnie Kristian unpacks this crisis, showing how it strains our relationships, hurts our minds, pollutes our politics, and damages our Christian discipleship. She explains factors that contribute to our confusion and helps us pay attention to how we consume content and think about truth. She also provides specific ways to take action to combat the truth crisis in our lives, families, and church communities.
"Overcoming our current polarization will begin only when trust is built across fractured communities, and this book will help in that work."
--Karen Swallow Prior, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary; author of On Reading Well: Finding the Good Life through Great Books
"Read Bonnie's book to discern the causes of [America's knowledge] crisis. Read her book to understand its effects. And read it to understand the role you can play in solving one of the most pressing issues of our time."
--David French (from the foreword)
"This book will help restore knowledge to its rightful place in the lives of Christians and the church."
--Michael Wear, author of Reclaiming Hope: Lessons Learned in the Obama White House about the Future of Faith in America
"Untrustworthy is an incisive, deeply researched, and personal analysis of our truth crisis. It should be widely read and discussed."
--Alan Noble, Oklahoma Baptist University; author of You Are Not Your Own
"Untrustworthy opens a window and lets in a breath of fresh air--and hope. Bonnie Kristian offers a way out of pointless debates and fearmongering conspiracy theories. This book is never condescending and always sympathetic; it is never partisan and always incisive."
--Jeffrey Bilbro, author of Reading the Times
