In this brief volume in IVP Academic's Introductions in Seven Sentences, philosopher Douglas Groothuis creatively uses a single sentence representing each of several world religions as a way to open readers to their depth and complexity, including: Atheism: 'God Is Dead.' Judaism: 'I Am Who I Am.' Hinduism: 'You Are That.' Buddhism: 'Life Is Suffering.' Daoism: 'The Dao That Can Be Spoken Is Not the Eternal Dao.' Christianity: 'Before Abraham Was, I Am.' Islam: 'There Is One God, and Mohammad Is His Prophet.' With a sympathetic but not uncritical approach, Groothuis welcomes readers to a vital and global conversation. The accessible primers in the Introductions in Seven Sentences collection act as brief introductions to an academic field, with simple organization: seven key sentences that give readers a birds-eye view of an entire discipline.
