Edition DescriptionSpecial
SynopsisSpecial 50th anniversary L'Abri Fellowship edition. Schaeffer's seminal work which analyzed the reasons for modern society's state of affairs and presented living a Christ-centered life as the only viable alternative, As one of the foremost evangelical thinkers of the twentieth century, Francis Schaeffer long pondered the fate of declining Western culture. In this brilliant book he analyzed the reasons for modern society's state of affairs and presented the only viable alternative: living by the Christian ethic, acceptance of God's revelation, and total affirmation of the Bible's morals, values, and meaning.
Dr. Schaeffer outlines the fall of cultures throughout history via the humanistic world view, and, even though this was written in 1976, he predicts exactly what is happening today to bring the USA down, and on the way to becoming a communist nation.
