Faith in Doubt

Faith in Doubt

The Rev. Dr. Harold Munn to launch new book at the Cathedral - June 28, 7:30 PM

Churches are declining throughout the West, and none of the big evengelism programs have made any difference. What if the problem isn't programs, but that churches are speaking a language that isn't understood in secular society? What if churches learned to speak secular? What would that sound like?

Harold Munn tells his own love story between faith and science, and the love story of a believer and an atheist, in his new book, Faith In Doubt. It's unveiling takes place with readings and conversations.

Join us for the "Faith in Doubt" book launch!
Friday, June 28, 7:30 pm @ Christ Chuch Cathedral
690 Burrard St, Vancouver, BC.

 

You can find The Rev. Dr. Harold Munn's website here.
