Saving Truth Video Study: Finding Meaning and Clarity in a Post-Truth World

by Abdu Murray

How Christians can guard their own minds against the lies that surround us and defend truth and clarity to a world that rejects both.

By accurately describing the Culture of Confusion, the rise of the "post-truth" mindset, and how it has affected our society, author Abdu Murray will awaken you and your group to the plight we find ourselves in and challenge Christians to steer away from contributing to such a culture by instead finding hope in the clarity that Christ offers.

In this eight-session, video study (guide sold separately) is designed to take you deeper into the topic of meaning and clarity through personal reflection and Scripture engagement and will:


Help you understand the post-truth mindset and how it infects and affects us all.
Equip you with facts and knowledge about the various areas of life where we are steeped in a post-truth mindset and losing our bearings as a culture, specifically: our freedom, our humanity, our sexuality, faith and science, and religious pluralism.
Explain how the message of Jesus can answer our deepest questions, and how the actions of Jesus can bring truth and clarity to a post-truth culture desperately in need of objective, biblical truth.
 

For individuals or groups who feel like they're enmeshed in the culture of confusion, the Saving Truth Study Guide sheds light on the way to see through the fog that surrounds us—by seeing Jesus and his message as the fixed point of reference that we so desperately need.

[Lukas Widann · Rating 3 out of 5]

Es war angenehm zu hören und gerade die gedankliche Einleitung in das Thema war etwas neues. Ob und wie genau wir jetzt wirklich den Postmodernismus verlassen haben und in einer Post-Wahrheitskultur leben muss sich mir noch zeigen. Aber die Warnung die dahinter steckt aufmerksamer zu sein ist durch aus gewinnbringend gewesen und hat geholfen einzelne Begegnungen einordnen zu können.

Also wenn man mal darüber stolpert oder das Thema einen interessiert ist es ein Blick wert.

While this was to be used with a specific DVD video series, I watched several of his YouTube videos and read along with his book Saving Truth. This allowed me to clarify, to myself, much of what he was bringing to light in his book Saving Truth. His discussions are pretty eye opening, as well. This is well worth the time, even if you just use it to clarify to yourself the topics of discussion.
