Review: The Francis A. Schaeffer Trilogy: Three Essential Books in One Volume - Excellent! Good price, and fast shipping. The book’s title says it all! This is ESSENTIAL for anyone wanting to begin a study of Schaefer’s writings. Extremely insightful explanation of how the Christian Worldview has been significantly replaced with progressive thought. I recommend Schaefer’s “Genesis in Space and Time” and “How Should We Then Live” as follow-up books.
Review: Reviewing the links between culture and religion - This book contains three books. It is an anthology of Francis Schaeffer's work. The books are "The God Who Is There," "Escape from Reason," and "He Is There and He Is Not Silent." Francis Schaeffer was an author who tried to keep fingers on the pulse of culture. He often related arts and other cultural institutions to the changing world views throughout history. Schaeffer was indeed a Christian, and one of the most engaging Christians with the world in a period through the 60's when many said, like Nietzsche, that "God is dead." Yet his primary point, notwithstanding, is that the philosophy of the modern west no longer maintained a view of absolute truth which unified fields of knowledge and rational thought. Schaeffer's primary critique of western culture was its shift from Aristotelian and logical forms of epistemology, to Hegelian synthesis. Where once ideas could be considered distinctly "true" or "false," the modern Hegelian method would be an ongoing syncretism, a synthesis, of different propositions. Sometimes these propositions would even be contradictory ones. Instead of saying either A or B, A is true, therefore B is false, the new logic says A and B are opposing views, but they can come together to form something new. Thus reason itself is endangered. If neither true nor false can exist, then the weight of authority is ultimately placed on the individual, and a new form of sophistry (man is the measure of all things) is born. This philosophy of synthesis became the underpinning for moral, theological, and epistemological relativism. Yet if truth which is absolute does exist in the world, then our modern system of thought does not accurately "correspond" to reality. The Christian believes that absolute truth exists, and is communicated in understandable form through the Bible. Francis Schaeffer suggests the Bible is proof that "He Is There and He Is Not Silent." Through the Bible, important truths, truths which appeal to all people, and are therefore absolute, become known. As for myself, I can attest that "the hermeneutics of suspicion" and "deconstructionism" are so fully employed as philosophies at our universities and graduate schools today, that views like Francis Schaeffer's are quite literally censored. On the first day of class, my OT teacher came in and the first thing she said was "there is no absolute truth." Considering how strongly I felt to the contrary, I almost got up and left, but I stayed and tried to politely remain a good student. Point being, I have direct experience with Schaeffer's predictions. Love or hate the man, his evaluation of what western culture has become philosophically is nearly flawless in how prevalently it has come true. I likewise find that critics that say that this is feelgood pap for Evangelicals haven't read the book thoroughly. Schaeffer accuses Evangelicals of being intellectually lazy and decadent. Furthermore, he accuses us of being morally and philosophically complicit in the advances of Hegelian synthesis as a cultural modus operandi. This man is a man who truly understood the implications, the ripples, caused by the introductions of new philosophy into a culture. Christians and even open-minded skeptics will find Schaeffer to be full of great insights and challenges. I deeply love this man's work, and also recommend "How Should We Then Live?"

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential!
*by M***N on February 21, 2009*

Consolidated and reprinted with good reason! Ever bit as relevant today as when written, perhaps more. In my opinion, this book should be required reading. It will influence the way you view nearly everything you read thereafter, whether a Christian book or not. Schaeffer does expect you to know something about the great philosophers but the book can be read without having read them, especially if the reader is willing to visit wikipedia to get a little more background. He does have certain biases: pre-suppositional and reformed perspectives and a unique view of natural law but they do not detract from the prominent themes. Those themes, btw, are that postmodern humanity does not understand that he has lost certain aspects of his reason, that he does not know how he got that way, and that Christians should not hide but stand up in the marketplace of ideas because Christianity can soundly compete and win over what passes for legitimate discourse in that marketplace. It is important to note that this trilogy is the cornerstone of his writings. Many have read his commentaries, particularly, "The Christian Manifesto," but even those cannot be properly understood without having read the trilogy. He was a prolific writer but this (or the constituent writings) is the book with which to start.
