The Gospel and the Modern Man

The Gospel and the Modern Man is a book written by Shailer Mathews, an American theologian and former Dean of the University of Chicago Divinity School. The book explores the relationship between Christianity and modernity, arguing that the Gospel message is still relevant and necessary in the modern world. Mathews discusses various aspects of modern life, including science, philosophy, and social issues, and shows how the Gospel can provide guidance and meaning in these areas. He also addresses the challenges faced by Christianity in the modern world, such as the rise of secularism and the questioning of traditional beliefs. The book is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the intersection of faith and modernity, and is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the role of Christianity in contemporary society.1912.
