When Athens Met Jerusalem

<P>Christian theology shaped and is shaping many places in the world but it was the Greeks who originally gave a philosophic language to Christianity. John Mark Reynolds's book <I>When Athens Met Jerusalem</I> provides students a well-informed introduction to the intellectual underpinnings (Greek Roman and Christian) of Western civilization and highlights how certain current intellectual trends are now eroding those very foundations. This work makes a powerful contribution to the ongoing faith versus reason debate showing that these two dimensions of human knowing are not diametrically opposed but work together under the direction of revelation.</P>
