The God who is There

Résumé du livre

Has historic Christianity--the Christianity of the New Testament, of the apostles and the early church--anything to say to the modern world? In the age of existentialism, anti-philosophy, and musique concrete, the happenings, and the new theology, many people have assumed that a religion based on revealed truth is totally irrelevant. But in this book, Dr. Francis Schaeffer contends that only historic Christianity, rightly understood and fearlessly applied, can solve the dilemmas of modern man. Illustrating his thesis from modern philosophers, artists, writers, and musicians (including such diverse examples as Sartre, the exponents of Dada, Henry Miller, Dylan Thomas, and the Beatles), Schaeffer shows himself at once alive to the exciting world in which we live and sensitive to the despair that blights all our achievements. HIs answers may not be the ones modern man expects, or even welcomes. But clearly they cannot be ignored. -Publisher
