Book Description
Called to live in the world, but not to be of it, Christians must maintain a balancing act that becomes more precarious the further our culture departs from its Judeo-Christian roots. How should members of the church interact with such a culture, especially as deeply enmeshed as most of us have become? In this award-winning book -- now in paperback and with a new preface -- D. A. Carson applies his masterful touch to that problem. After exploring the classic typology of H. Richard Niebuhr with its five Christ-culture options, Carson offers an even more comprehensive paradigm for informing the Christian worldview. More than just theoretical, Christ and Culture Revisited is a practical guide for helping Christians untangle current messy debates about living in the world.

Book Description
Be Equipped to Stand Firm! Culture is not shy and certainly not silent in educating our children. Neither should Christians be. Welcome to the definitive resource for pursuing Christ in our Culture. Pop culture, media culture, and secular culture together is one of the most influential teachers of our children. To the Christian community this is of great concern because much of what mainstream culture teaches children is in direct contrast to the Word of God. The results of a Godless culture are disastrous and are seen in every area of our society. Fortunately, the Word of God speaks life into hearts and minds. Rarely, though, are children given an opportunity to see what the world is teaching them placed side by side and directly compared with the truth in God's Word. That is what Christ & Culture is all about. It is designed to be a simple tool for parents and educators to present to children a clear distinction between what the world teaches them and what the Word teaches them about relevant daily life issues. Teaching truth, wisdom, and practical ways of guarding hearts, Christ & Culture is an essential in-the moment resource for children, parents, and teachers.

Book Description
In 1951, theologian H. Richard Niebuhr published Christ and Culture, a hugely influential book that set the agenda for the church and cultural engagement for the next several decades. But Niebuhr's model was devised in and for a predominantly Christian cultural setting. How do we best understand the church and its writers in a world that is less and less Christian? Craig Carter critiques Niebuhr's still pervasive models and proposes a typology better suited to mission after Christendom.
