Book Review:
''I have seen enough to know how powerful a source of evil religion can be,'' writes Bishop Lesslie Newbigin. Yet, he argues, religion is too great and permanent an element in human experience to be dismissed. This book asks a crucial question for our time: What must the religion of a Christian be who accepts the process of secularization and lives fully in the kind of world into which God has led us? Newbigin brings a unique perspective—having spent 23 years as a missionary in India, then becoming a leader in world evangelism, and finally serving as Bishop in Madras. His reflections on the secular city of the West are honest, provocative, and deeply insightful. A timeless classic for anyone grappling with faith in a modern, secular world.
