The publisher's description of this 208 page hard cover book: For centuries the church has taught and guarded the core Christian beliefs that make up the essential foundations of the faith.

Mark Dever Interviews Ken Myers on Christians and Culture

by

For years now I have enjoyed Ken Myers' cultural commentary. His Mars Hill Audio Journal is in many ways a thoughtfully Christian version of NPR's All Things Considered. Myers is consistently clear-headed, erudite and relevant. In this hour-long interview, Mark Dever covers a wide variety of topics with Mr. Myers. Most interestingly, they discuss the impact of culture on Christians, our fascination with culture, and whether cultural accommodation by the church is healthy for Christians (and, in turn, the communities in which they live).

Review of Unfashionable by Tullian Tchividjian

by

Pastor Tullian Tchividjian joins the provocative conversation on Christ and culture with this newly released (and widely endorsed) book, Unfashionable: Making a Difference in the World by Being Different. For those unfamiliar, there are a plethora of books (particularly recently) on the complex topic of how the Christian (and the church collectively) is to relate to the world. We've all heard the phrase "in the world, but not of it." But what does that look like? That's what Unfashionable is all about. Following a helpful Foreword by Tim Keller, the book is divided into four sections: The … [Read more...] about Review of Unfashionable by Tullian Tchividjian
