Total Truth - Interview with Professor Nancy Pearcey

06/07/21 • 40 min

What is Truth? How can we know it? In our modern era, we have developed a belief about truth that is, quite simply, not true.
In this episode of the All of Life Show, we interview Professor Nancy Pearcey about one of her books, Total Truth, and discuss the way that the truth has been divided into the realms of sacred and secular, and how Christians must understand and overcome this if we are to be effective.
Nancy Pearcey is the author of Love Thy Body: Answering Hard Questions about Life and Sexuality. Her earlier books include The Soul of Science, Saving Leonardo, Finding Truth, and two ECPA Gold Medallion Award Winners: How Now Shall We Live (coauthored with Harold Fickett and Chuck Colson) and Total Truth. Her books have been translated into nine languages. She is professor and scholar in residence at Houston Baptist University. A former agnostic, Pearcey has spoken at universities such as Princeton, Stanford, USC, and Dartmouth. She was highlighted as one of the five top women apologists by Christianity Today and was hailed in The Economist as "America's pre-eminent evangelical Protestant female intellectual."

Love Thy Body - Interview with Professor Nancy Pearcey

In our culture, today, there are so many ideas and voices competing with the voice of Truth found in the Word of God. Consequently, Christians have become more confused than ever with how to think Biblically regarding issues pertaining to gender and sexuality.
In part two of our interview with Professor Nancy Pearcey, we discuss her most recent book, Love Thy Body, and hear how a Christian can walk in love without compromising truth and faithfulness to God's Word.
