Book Reviews

I reviewed D.A. Carson's, Christ and Culture Revisited (Eerdmans, 2008) in the June 2009 issue of Touchstone.  The book offers a very helpful of Niebuhr's classic Christ and Culture.  Carson notes some significant weaknesses in Niebuhr, and then explicates the key biblical and theological issues related to the question of "Christ and culture."  I briefly note in the Touchstone review one main criticism I have of the book: while Carson offers a helpful summary of the key issues, I finished the book wishing Carson had engaged in more synthesis.  That is, I finished the book wishing Carson had offered a more full-orbed theology of Christ and culture.
