Our prevailing culture, with its absence of certainties, is a haven for a vast diversity of views and theories, opinions and life-style choices. Common to all this diversity is a rejection of the received wisdom on the past about who we are and what kind of world we live in. Marcus Honeysett takes us through the enormous upheavals of our culture, providing a reliable guide to a Christian response both in theory and in practical and moral living. Without such a response, he argues, we are condemned to be shaped by our world, rather than shaping it for Christ.
