The Church That Could Be

London England: SPCK. Paperback. The churches in Britain have to live with society's modern, scientific world-view, which, in practice, means that most people no longer seek guidance from any of the numerous forms of Christianity on offer. The basic reason for this mistrust is that, rightly or wrongly, the churches' message is no longer thought to be true and their opinions are no longer believed to matter. The author addresses these misconceptions by bringing to bear the experience and serious thought of a lifetime. He reflects on the image of God today, on what can be seen to be true about Jesus, on the contemporary relevance of the biblical idea of government by God, on the resent search for Christian unity, and on the exciting renewal of the catholic and evangelical traditions. The author's study focuses on Britain; however, in the final chapter he looks at its relevance to churches in other modern and rapidly modernizing parts of the world. 184 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.) .
