really liked it

The first couple sections of the book are difficult to maintain interest in, as they go into detail about various philosophers and artists I was not familiar with. About 1/3 of the way in, Schaeffer begins discussing Christianity's position on modern philosophy, making it more relevant and understanding. This book goes beyond the typical evangelism explanations and guides the reader to an understanding of a doubter of God's existence, while illuminating the wonder and hope we have in the gospel.

Quotes Brigitta Liked

Francis A. Schaeffer
“But when the world can turn around and see a group of God's people exhibiting substantial healing in the area of human relationships in their present life, then the world will take notice.”
Francis A. Schaeffer, The God Who Is There

Francis A. Schaeffer
“The problem which confronts us as we approach modern man today is not how we are to change Christian teaching in order to make it more palatable, for to that would mean throwing away any chance of giving the real answer to man in despair; rather it is only a problem of how we many communicate the Gospel so that it is understood.”
Francis A. Schaeffer, The God Who Is There
