Description

Our fast-changing culture is a haven for a vast array of beliefs and theories, opinions and lifestyle choices. Common to all this diversity, argues Marcus Honeysett, is a rejection of the received wisdom about who we are and what kind of world we live in--wisdom revealed through God's Word. Our culture is in a state of meltdown because we have disposed of truth in order to live without God. This engaging, understandable book works through the philosophical underpinnings of our culture in a case-study format, and provides clear thinking for Christians combatting its challenges. It brings the otherwise abstract ideas of postmodernity into practical, everyday situations and offers a solid basis on which Christians can make informed, biblical decisions. "This book stands out . . . Marcus Honeysett presents his case with straightforward resolve and plain speech." --D. A. Carson, author of" The Gagging of God" Written with depth, breadth, and extraordinary readabilityEach chapter includes thought-provoking questions for group discussionWorks each real-life situation through a grid of theory and practice
