This was an interesting and helpful book. As deception continues to be on the increase, Hoaxes, urban legends, and rumors continue to circulate throughout Christiandom. As Christians we are to be a people of the Truth so what is true should matter to us. When what is true doesn’t matter anymore, what many Christians fail to realize is that it hurts the whole body of Christ.
This book takes a walk through some of the more common hoaxes and urban legends of the past that still continue to deceive and dupe Christians today. The author gives instruction on how to discern and avoid these falsified tales, legends, and old rumors and stories. Williams advises that by checking out the source, it can do much to dispel modern myths and the truthfulness of much of what is being circulated in the Christian community. He informs the reader that when Christians think that God only deals with them on an emotional level it causes a Christian to resist wise counsel and will leave that person open to deception.
