Description
If todays culture is told, "Jesus is the answer", the response would be, "What is the question?" Charles Colson believes that the Postmodern mind has abandoned the pursuit of truth and instead has grown comfortable with the acceptance of opinions. This talk was given at a fundraiser for Regent College in 1997 and asks since we are no longer in a Christian culture, how does the Christian respond to the hostility of modern culture and society?
In this recording Charles Colson argues for the necessity of upholding truth and developing a comprehensive biblical worldview in a culture that has become increasingly hostile to Christianity. This address was given on behalf of the endowment campaign for the J. I. Packer Chair of Theology at Regent College.
