Both-And: Understanding Apparent Contradictions in Christianity

One of the significant challenges in the Christian faith is the number of apparent contradictions the Bible presents. These paradoxes and mysteries can be difficult to understand. In Both–And Ross Cunningham takes 23 pairs of seemingly contradictory truths and concisely and clearly explains how they can co–exist. The book is divided into three main sections – apparent contradictions in the divine nature; apparent contradictions in the experience of salvation; and apparent contradiction in the characteristics of being in Christ. Ross Cunningham, who has a background in creative design, has introduced each chapter with an attractive graphic representation of the paradox in question.

Both–And is clever, creative and clear. What a great way to learn theology! I loved the format which avoids being gimmicky whilst at the same time clearly drawing attention to the truths it illustrates. Most Christians will benefit from reading Ross Cunningham’s wee book – and a lot of non–Christians too. Taste and see… David Robertson, Well–known pastor and apologist
