Know the Heretics

Book Review: Know the Heretics by Justin Holcomb - a short look at beliefs of the historic heretical movements. Two points that I think are very helpful from the book: 1) Hersey usually started trying to simplify or ‘fix' confusing doctrines. 2) Flippant use of the word heresy can ruin the actual meaning to the point of making the concept useless. Kindle book is only $3.79 right now. There is also a companion book, Know the Creeds that I have picked up and will probably read fairly soon. I do think this would be a good book for a small group discussion, there are discussion questions and the chapters (and whole book) are short enough to make it easy to read and discuss.
