Know the Heretics (Includes Free Streaming Video)

In this guide, Justin Holcomb---a priest, professor, and author---introduces readers to the major heresies in Christian history, outlining not just the false teachings but also the orthodox response to each one and their ongoing contemporary relevance. Discussion questions make Know the Heretics useful for individual and group study alike.

Know the Heretics provides an accessible travel guide to the most significant heresies throughout Christian history.

There is a lot of talk about heresy these days. The frequency and volume of accusations suggest that some Christians have lost a sense of the gravity of the word, while others have little familiarity with orthodox doctrine or the historic distortions of it.

This book has everything you need for a full video study experience.

• The book itself, covering 12 different heresies, along with reflections on contemporary relevance and discussion questions.
• An individual access code to stream all video teaching sessions online for a deeper learning experience. (You don’t need to buy a DVD!)

As a part of the KNOW series, this book is designed for personal study or classroom use, but also for small groups and Sunday schools wanting to more deeply understand the foundations of the faith.
