Recommended in the Faith Pulpit Author: D.A. Carson Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co. Niebuhr's Christ & Culture is widely considered one of the most significant books on social ethics written in modern times, but detractors are not as certain of its categories and judgments. Carson argues that all five of Niebuhr's categories are viable and should be viewed as part of one single overarching biblical vision. Called to live in the world, but not to be of it, Christians must maintain a balancing act that becomes more precarious the further our culture departs from its Judeo-Christian roots. While many other books on culture interact with Niebuhr, none of them takes anything like the biblical-theological approach adopted here. Groundbreaking and challenging. 243 Pages; Hardcover ISBN: 9780802831743 Retail: $24.00
