"I like how Lesslie sums up toward the end of the book how Christians need to be a witness: "The church needs to be very humble in acknowledging that it is itself only a learner, and it needs to pay heed to all the variety of human experience in order to learn in practice what it means that Jesus is the King and Head of the human race.""
"Why does Christianity seem to be becoming less and less authoritative or even a viable intellectual option in Modern Western Culture? Newbigin looks at what our culture demands as a plausible answer to any question and how the public mindset came to expect such language. Strongly recommended to anyone who is at all remotely interested in the subject."
