“As a new biography shows, the Dutch Reformed theologian was adept at navigating perennial tensions of Christ and culture.” - CToday

“At its best, the book forces an increasingly frayed and polarized Christian church to answer for its moral and political apathy.

“The problem with the culture-war approach is not that it (rightly) discerns opposition from the world. The problem is in the chosen mode of response. By embracing the culture-war paradigm, many Christians adopt—likely inadvertently—an ‘all’s fair in love and war’ perspective….And so we employ battle tactics we normally would not find defensible” - TGC

“The center will unveil on Tuesday the findings of its inaugural national research study, the American Worldview Inventory 2020. Barna maintains the study is ‘the most sophisticated survey of worldview ever conducted in the United States.’” - CPost
