Collins publish Christianity in 'Need to Know' series

Peter Graystone, who develops the fresh expressions agenda at Church Army, has a new book out.  It is called ‘Need to Know: Christianity’ and it is one of a series that Harper Collins publishes – a sort of ‘teach yourself’ series.  The idea is that if you are a teacher, a journalist or an enquirer, and you want to find out the basics of the subject in one evening, it is short, objective and easy to read.  So in it you can find what Christians believe, what they do, what big issues face them today, and the story of how we have got from Jesus to here during the last two thousand years.  The best deal on it at the moment is on Amazon:
