Stories of child sexual abuse continue to appear, including  those that focus on abuse within the Church. The author maintains that all churches - Protestant and Catholic alike - have yet to face this issue.;Drawing on recent research and the stories of victims, he explores why abuse occurs; the effects on victims; the issues arising when child abuse is suspected in a church setting; and why he believes the Church hasn't dealt satisfactorily with the problem in the past. He discusses how the problem can be dealt with both pastorally and legally in order to provide a safe environment for children in the future.

In the Genesis Bible Commentary Salvation Begins, Andrew Reid gives readers a framework for appreciating the Old Testament as Christian scripture. The book of Genesis was written for a world of fear. It was a world filled with gods and deities of all shapes, sizes and dispositions. We no longer worship the sun, the stars and mythical deities. Yet although the modern gods are largely material, social and ideological, they still pose threats. Genesis speaks to contemporary fears. It renews our hope for the future as we see God the Creator begin his salvation plan to redeem his world and his people.
