Truth used to be based on reason. No more. What we feel is now the truest source of reality. Despite our obsession with the emotive and the experiential, we still face anxiety, despair, and purposelessness. How did we get here? And where do we find a remedy? Schaeffer's work takes on a newfound relevance today in his prescient anticipation of the contemporary postmodern ethos. His critique demonstrates Christianity's promise for a new century, one in as much need as ever of purpose and hope.

Story
It can no longer be assumed that most people - or even most Christians - have a basic understanding of the Bible. Many don’t know the difference between the Old and New Testament, and even the more well-known biblical figures are often misunderstood. It is getting harder to talk about Jesus accurately and compellingly because listeners have no proper context with which to understand God’s story of redemption. In this basic introduction to faith, D. A. Carson takes seekers, new Christians, and small groups through the big story of scripture. He helps listeners to know what they believe and why they believe it.

Story
A dangerous and revolutionary philosophy is responsible for the street fires in America. It fuels the actions of Black Lives Matter and Antifa. It invades curricula in public schools and in our military. It is in our churches. You have heard the phrase “white privilege,” the need for “safe spaces” on campuses, and perhaps the tongue-twister “intersectionality.” Behind all of these is an ideology called critical theory, which is a form of cultural Marxism that divides society into the oppressed and the oppressors.

It’s a book that will reveal how these two biblical phrases - Fear God and Do Not Be Afraid - are not contradictory but actually one coherent message.
Publisher's Summary
In 2006, Christianity Today voted The God Who Is There as one of the top 50 books that have shaped evangelicals.
For decades, The God Who Is There has been the landmark book that changed the way the church sees the world. In Francis Schaeffer's remarkable analysis, we learn where the clashing ideas about God, science, history, and art came from and where they are going. This edition includes a foreword by James W. Sire that places Schaeffer's seminal work in the context of the intellectual turbulence of the early 21st century.
More than ever, The God Who Is There demonstrates how historic Christianity can fearlessly confront the competing philosophies of the world. The God who has always been there continues to provide the anchor of truth and the power of love to meet the world's deepest problems.

A Book of classical proportions. Amazing Relevance and Insight
Francis Schaeffer does not disappoint. I am so grateful for the encouragement I received to reread this book after many years and to be reacquainted with such culturally sensitive insights and truth, which will never cease ‘to be’. I am especially grateful for Francis Schaeffer’s ‘personal overlay’ throughout the book, which gives his message a sense of ‘reality and urgency’ together with an ‘authenticity’ which I find equaled by present ‘greats’ such as Os Guinness and John C Lennox and Jim Packer. I am especially impressed by Francis Schaeffer’s urging to see each other, believer or unbeliever, as ‘our kind’ in the very very best sense of this phrase and to love and hold out compassion to all. A great read by the narrator John Lescault who I suggest captures the intent of Francis Schaeffer’s meaning. Thank you!
