When Lesslie Newbigin returned to Britain in 1974 after years of
missionary service, he observed that his homeland was as much a
mission field as India, where he had spent the majority of his
missionary career. He concluded that the Western world needed a
missionary confrontation. Instead of the traditional approach to
missions, however, Newbigin realized that the Western world needed
to be confronted theologically. From his earliest days at Cambridge
University, Newbigin developed the theological convictions that
shaped his understanding of the Christian faith, and he used these
theological convictions as criteria to evaluate the belief system
of Western culture and to provide an answer to its dilemma. The
Enlightenment reintroduced humanism and dualism into Western
culture, which resulted on the loss of purpose and the rise of
skepticism. This book discusses Newbigin's theological convictions
and how they factored into both his critique of and his solution to
Western culture's spiritual and worldview problems. Donald Le Roy
cleverly explains Newbigin's solution to reintroduce the Christian
belief system into Western culture in order to restore purpose and
truth to Westerners and put them back in contact with true reality
through Jesus Christ.
