How Does America Hear the Gospel?Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing, 1989 - 164 páginas This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable. In this book Dyrness explores the relationship between the biblical gospel and American culture. He shows how three dominant American cultural values -- pragmatism, optimism, and individualism -- have both a positive and negative impact on our Christian discipleship, looks at Walter Rauschenbusch and Robert Schuller as case studies, and sets out a distinctively American way of appropriating the gospel. |
