Plot

Honest to God, originally published in 1963, has been described as the most talked-about theological work of the twentieth century. Its publication work instigated a passionate debate about the nature of Christian belief and doctrine in the white heat of a secular revolution. It also epitomized the revolutionary spirit of a fresh and challenging way of looking at the world, which, throughout the 1960s, was to bring about the disintegration of established orthodoxies and social, political and theological norms. It articulated the anxieties of a generation who saw these traditional givens as no longer acceptable or necessarily credible. Reissued on the 40th anniversary of the original publication, Honest to God is not only a book that generated controversy and debate in its own time, but a piece of interesting theological history which continues to inform many in their search for credible Christianity in today's world. --adapted from Amazon.com
