Description

A dazzling intellectual treatise that challenges the church to take a leading role in contemporary cultural life.

Why has the Christian church become so inconsequential today? What must happen for it to reclaim the influence it once had? In CHRISTENDOM, AWAKE a renowned Catholic theologian argues that if the church is to again become a vital social force, it must regain confidence in its ability to transform daily life. Offering an admirable defense of orthodox faith, Aidan Nichols shows how recovering the church's traditional mission will also reenergize its witness in modern philosophy, ethics, aesthetics, economics, gender relations, and politics. Providing astute insight into the forces of mainstream culture, this volume will enlighten all those concerned for the renewal of Christendom in today's world.
