The Gospel in a Pagan Society

Paul in Athens - the classic case of the gospel Jesus Christ confronting a totally alien culture. For Athens - like modern-day London, New York, Paris, Tokyo - was neither Christian nor Jewish, neither totally secular nor devoted to one God, neither all business nor all pleasure. Kenneth F. W. Prior, noted English churchman and university lecturer, takes the account of Paul's interaction with the Athenians (as recorded in Acts 17), illuminates its meaning for Paul's day, and draws striking parallels with our own. Mr. Prior raises anew that ever pertinent question: Whose evangelistic method shall we employ - the Apostle Paul's or our own? --- from book's back cover
