Description
Summary:In a world of fake news and post-truth, where objective facts are less influential in shaping truth than opinions said with confidence and authority, where is God's truth? Where is the Good News of Jesus Christ amidst all the fake news? This is discussed under three areas: God's reality check (the truth of his word); our reality check (to personally examine ourselves and our behaviours to remain in God's truth); and arguing God's reality check (in a different form of apologetics based on conviction of belief).
