4.9/5 (16907 ratings)

Description:Being fully God & fully human, Jesus raised an enduring question for his followers: what exactly was His place in this world? In Christ & Culture, H. Richard Niebuhr crafted a survey of the many ways of answering that question & the related question of how Christ's followers understand their own place in the world. He called the subject of this book "the double wrestle of the church with its Lord & with the cultural society with which it lives in symbiosis." He described various understandings of Christ "against," "of" & "above" culture, as well as Christ "transforming" culture & Christ in "paradoxical" relation to it. It remains among the most gripping articulations of what is arguably the most basic ethical question of the Christian faith: how is Christ relevant to today's world?--Michael Joseph Gross (edited)ForewordAcknowledgmentsThe enduring problem Christ against cultureThe Christ of cultureChrist above culture Christ & culture above paradox Christ the transformer of cultureA "concluding unscientific postscript"IndexWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
