What is the Christian message in a society marked by religious pluralism, ethnic diversity, and cultural relativism? Should Christians encountering today's pluralist society concentrate on evangelism or on dialogue? How does the prevailing climate of opinion affect, perhaps infect, Christians' faith? These kinds of questions are addressed in this noteworthy book by Lesslie Newbigin. A highly respected Christian leader and ecumenical figure, Newbigin provides a brilliant analysis of contemporary (secular, humanist, pluralist) culture and suggests how Christians can more confidently affirm their faith in such a context.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Leslie Newbigin</note> <subject> <topic>Christianity and culture</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Apologetics -- 20th century</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">261</classification> <classification authority="ddc">N533-L63</classification> <identifier type="isbn">0802804268</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14789/81-zxdpar3l-sl1500.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14789/81-zxdpar3l-sl1500.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071414.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
