The God Who Is There

In this book, Francis A. Schaeffer examines the historical and philosophical developments in Western society from Ancient Rome to the 1970s. He critiques the influences of the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, and modern science, arguing that these movements have led to a decline in Christian values. Schaeffer advocates for a return to a Christian foundation, emphasizing the importance of living by the Christian ethic and affirming the morals, values, and meaning of the Bible. The book is divided into chapters that explore various periods and aspects of Western thought, including the Reformation, the Enlightenment, modern science, and modern art and culture.
