Francis Schaeffer's Classic Analysis of the Rise and Decline of Western Thought and Culture Civilizations throughout history have built societies around their own limited value systems including rulers, finite gods, or relativism—only to fail. The absence of a Christian foundation eventually leads to breakdown, and those signs are visible in present-day culture as well. Can modern society avoid the same fate? In this latest edition of How Should We Then Live?, theologian Francis A. Schaeffer traces the decline of Western culture from the fall of Rome, through the Middle Ages and the Enlightenment, and up to the twentieth century. Studying humanism's impact on philosophy, science, and religion, he shows how this worldview historically results in apathy, chaos, and decline. Schaeffer's important work calls on readers to live instead by Christian ethics, placing their trust in the infinite personal God of the Bible. Originally written in 1976, How Should We Then Live? remains remarkably applicable today. A Theology Classic: Written by renowned Christian philosopher Francis A. Schaeffer For Those Interested in Philosophy and History: Engages with the ideas of Plato, John Locke, Thomas Jefferson, and Voltaire, and examines the art, architecture, and ideas that shaped modern society Explores the Importance of a Christian Worldview: A practical assessment of the evolution of culture and the steadfast alternative offered by the biblical perspective

COP26 finished with a compromise agreement that brings us closer to reducing emissions that will limit global warming to -2C but we have a way to go. Hopefully, COP27 at Sharm-el-Sheik in Egypt will deliver even better emission reductions. Fr Gaël Giraud, director of research at CNRS (Center national de la recherche scientifique) and Loïc Giaconne, Georgetown University, explain we need to shift from what Pope Francis calls a “culture of waste” to a “culture of care.” In recent years, several studies have been published on the “genealogy” of Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s thought. Above all, it is inspired by Romano Guardini and the philosopher Gaston Fessard and the ever present influence of Fr. Miguel Ángel Fiorito. Along with three Frenchmen: Henri de Lubac, Michel de Certeau, and the Protestant Paul Ricouer. Fr. Miguel Ángel Fiorito writes about spiritual paternity. A spiritual person, according to Origen, is one in whom theory and practice are united, involving care for one’s neighbor and a spiritual charism for the good of one’s neighbor. The wounds inflicted on the victims by clergy continue to be an ongoing challenge for us. Fr Marcel Uwineza suggests a thoughtful response between to crisis a theology capable of guiding healing and reconciliation. Giovanni Cucci continues his series on the virtues with Justice: An uncomfortable virtue. Fr Cucci proposes justice is best established by means of a new social contract, in which individuals who differ considerably in their sensibilities, habits, cultural and religious affiliations agree on the criteria for the allocation of available resources.
