Nancy Hits the 'Nail on the Head'!
|
This is one of the very finest Christian books of the last twenty years, and somewhere within the top five of those.
Nancy vividly and with great clarity spells out the philosophical influences which have caused Christianity to be rejected as a principal worldview and restricted to a separate and privatized 'upper story' compartment. With exceptional skill and scholarship she shows how Christian believers have often been their own worst enemies in the whole process, numerous examples are given but the post-Revolutionary War wholesale rejection of established theology within the United States is shown to have much to answer for in view of much of the shallowness of modern American Christian preaching.
While Christian philosophy is the overall subject Nancy must be admired for presuming little or no previous exposure to philosophy by her readers. She is an eminently clear writer.
If you must by just one Christian book this year this should be the one.
UK Apologetics.
