The Church at the End of the 20th Century

Western culture is dying. Is the Church in the West dying too? Is it already too late to overcome the pressures that threaten its very existence?

Dr. Francis Schaeffer offers us some seriously considered answers as he surveys the true situation of Christian churches at the end of the 20th century.

His analysis leads him to consider the latest political trends, the current theological crisis, the biological threat, the ecological problem, the loss of the concept of truth, population explosion, and the manipulation of the common man at the hands of scientists, artists, and "mass-media" experts.

When he turns his gaze to the institutional Church, Dr. Schaeffer presents an analysis of "Form and Freedom" in the Church and establishes a solid foundation for genuinely biblical Christian communities.

Finally, he suggests a program of individual as well as institutional reform; a reform that could produce an authentically revolutionary Christianity.
