Online resources: Summary: A mighty clash of convictions resounds around the world and will continue to reverberate during the coming decades. Men are deciding a most difficult question: Is there One Way or are there many ways? Hosts line up on one side and on the other. Cannons are wheeled into position and salvos fired. Lectures are delivered, courses are taught, and books are written on each side. If there are many ways to God, the Christian has no position in any culture, even his own. If there is only one way then the Christian needs to assert his truth as clearly and honestly as possible. This book deals with the deeper questions of culture. Beyond dress, housing, and language rests the issue of moral and ethical right and wrong. If you have ever pondered the impact of a Christian commitment on this level of living you have approached the culture clash. McGavran challenges those who deny this impact and compromise their decisions with a choice that accommodates secularism, relativism or pluralism. He presents a stimulating and persuasive case for the authority of the gospel within any culture.
