Book Overview

An internationally known writer and speaker on religion and public life brilliantly analyzes the causes of our current moral malaise. Os Guinness examines how perilously close we have come to losing the shared beliefs, traditions, and ideals that have helped shape America and sets forth a compelling view of a new role for religion and faith.

One of Chip's Top Ten (wordsntone.com)

By Thriftbooks.com User, September 10, 2005

This book put my faith under judgment: does my faith lead to transforming the culture that surrounds me, or does it add to the culture's corruption? Guinness pinned me against the wall of my self-centeredness and privatized faith and challenged me on how well my faith interacts, reacts, and enlightens my time, my moment in history-and how well my faith is open to God's work of revival and renewal.
