How the West Really Lost God

How The West Lost God

If you want to understand the importance of the family factor in the decline of Western Christianity over the decades, then this book is highly recommended: How The West Really Lost God: A New Theory in Secularization by Mary Eberstadt

The book’s premise is simple: As the decline of the traditional family fractured, so did Christianity.

Mary Eberstadt seeks to answer the question “How and why has Christianity really come to decline in important parts of the West?”Mary Eberstadt seeks to answer the question “How and why has Christianity really come to decline in important parts of the West?”

Drawing on sociology, history, demography, theology, literature, and many other sources, the author shows that family decline and religious decline have gone hand in hand in the Western world in a way that has not been understood before—that they are, as she puts it in a striking new image summarizing the book’s thesis, “the double helix of society, each dependent on the strength of the other for successful reproduction.”

She teaches us how to bring health to our families and to our nation.

♫ Then Sings My Soul -150 of the World’s Greatest Hymn Stories

Then Sings My Soul -150 of the World’s Greatest Hymn Stories By Robert J. Morgan

Robert J. Morgan’s lifelong interest in hymns led him to discover the richness of stories behind many of the best-loved hymns. He features 150 of some of the greatest Christian hymns and songs, complete with music and lyrics plus a one-page background of each piece. His goal is to keep these traditional hymns vital and meaningful to all generations.

With more than 1,000,000 copies sold, I’d say it’s working.

These devotional-style stories highlight the people whose faith led them to write these wonderful hymns and the people whose faith was affected by reading, hearing, and singing the songs. These are a few snippets from the book that are historically interesting and inspirational to read.

Father Joseph Mohr wrote “Silent Night” due to the fact that the church organ was broken and something was needed for the Christmas Eve presentation in 1818.

Jesus Loves Me was written by Anna Warner for a book, Say and Seal which became a best seller, second only to Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Miss Warner and her sister conducted Bible classes for cadets at West Point for forty years and were buried with full military honors. They are the only civilians buried in this cemetery at West point.

The book features a special softcover, French flap cover design, ivory paper with brown ink and a ragged-edge paper, giving it a classic feel. It’s a special book to share with family and friends.

Disputed Issues (Contending for Christian Faith in Today’s Academic Setting)

Posted on by


DisputedIssuesDisputed Issues (Contending for Christian Faith in Today’s Academic Setting), Stephen T. Davis, Baylor University Press

This is an outstanding apologetic by Dr. Stephen Davis, Pitzer professor of Philosophy at Claremont McKenna College. He engages with many of the critical arguments made against Christianity at the academic level, in our day. He understands what those in the academic world are thinking, and ably refutes their arguments. Sixteen chapters contend with various lines of criticism against the Bible including: Should We Believe The Jesus Seminar?; Have the Infidels Refuted the Resurrection?; Should Evangelicals Be Pluralists?; Is “Survival of Death” Coherent? “Disputed Issues should be required reading for all thoughtful students, philosophers, theologians, and seminarians who are interested in exploring the cogency of Christian faith in light of contemporary criticism”.~ Charles Taliaferro, Professor Of Philosophy, St. Olaf College.
