The God who is there
speaking historic Christianity into the twentieth century
Book • 1968
In 'The God Who Is There,' Francis Schaeffer presents a comprehensive analysis of the intellectual and cultural landscape of the second half of the 20th century.
He critiques the separation of faith and reason, arguing that this division has led to a 'line of despair' in modern thinking.
Schaeffer contends that Christianity offers a unified worldview that bridges the gap between science and metaphysical truths, providing a livable system that addresses issues of morality, personality, and purpose.
The book emphasizes the importance of engaging the questions of each generation and communicating the gospel in a way that is both grounded in absolute truth and relevant to the whole of reality.
