A FAR GLORY
The Quest for
Faith
in
an
Age of Credulity
Peter L. Berger
"Confirms Peter Berger's standing
as
one of the world's leading social
theorists. It also reveals that neither
the modem world nor the best soci–
ological thought is inevitably secular.
Berger shows how an explicitly
religious understanding of human
experience is sustained by a realistic
analysis of contemporary, pluralistic
society. Those not alto-gether in
agreement with his social ethic are
nevertheless likely to be convinced
of the importance of his argument–
and delighted by
his
style."

THE AMERICAN
HOUR
A Time ofReckoning
and the Once and
Future Role of Faith
Os Guinness
"Os Guinness has again served us
well with a scholarly, yet readable,
analysis of the role of religion and
faith in our history...This is an
important book for all who care
deeply about both democracy and
faith. A must read that goes well
beyond
The Dust
of
Death."
- J ay
Kesler, Taylor University
"Os Guinness has boldly entered
the public debate over the nation's
values and direction, refusing to allow
the public square
to
remain naked.
His analysis is full of insights, his
argument full of profundity, and
his proposals full of wisdom."

it is welcome

this
vol–
ume is at once an invaluable contri–
bution
to
our scientific understanding
and a charter for our well-being
as
