Where is Christianity hiding in modern society?
A Transformative Vision: Developing a Christian Worldview
Our society is enthusiastic about scientific, technological and economic advances. It is deplorable that these advances are all made without taking Christian values into account. Christianity should permeate the structures of our society to the point of influencing its culture. From academic studies to politics, from business to family life, the Christian vision can transfigure our world. To initiate such a reversal, the authors analyze our troubled times, skillfully explain how these troubles appeared and offer us a solution. Their hope is rooted in a clear understanding of the Christian worldview.“This book sends out an urgent cry to Christians in the hope that they will unite with one heart and one mind, and recognize that Jesus Christ is Lord of life in all its forms. Read it as an inspiring analysis of what prevents such unity of heart and mind. Also read it as an imperative to... submit ourselves to one Master. »
