“I never meant to write a book,” says John. “In fact, I did not think I was capable of it. As an engineer by profession I wanted to look for the truth, subjecting the Bible to the findings of science, archaeology, cosmology and history, leading to a logical and reasonable conclusion.
I started writing this as a challenge to myself, but the more my writing progressed the more I realised this could be useful not only to other Christians who wanted to establish a more firm foundation for their faith, but also to enquirers into the Christian faith and even a challenge to those who are sceptical.
Part one is the first in a three part series of booklets, titled Is the Bible True? Using the analogy of a lighhouse, Part one looks at the foundations, Part two the building blocks – the characters who contributed to the narrative and Part three the light, seeing Jesus as the Light of the World.
Writing these booklets has strengthened both my own bible knowledge and also my own faith. When, or indeed if you yourself read them I trust they will do the same for you.”

Next week we are hoping to start serialising John’s books here on the MBC website. However, should you want your own copies all you need to do is to email John on jdwhitehead1938@gmail.com and he will arrange everything for you.
