Exploring fundamentals of faith in a changed world
Blake's
"The Messenger of Evil" raises deep questions about our world.
What is evil? And Why Bother to Think
About Evil? Tony Windross suggests that we all tend to
avoid the issue, in the hope that what we think of as evil will just go
away. But if we try to do that, we also do away with morality - and
perhaps even the concept of a just God.
There
are those who think that Western societies are now descending
into a state of decadence.
The debate is quietly continuous rather than high-profile. Are
those who think the patient is grievously ill correct? Or is it
just that the rapid pace of change is causing every culture
severe stresses and strains? And what can Christians contribute
to the problem?
Preaching
has been a form of communication since the dawn of human civilisation.
And in the Church it has held pride of place for two millennia. Only in
modern times has it begun to change its nature in the face of
overwhelming dominance by the mass media and computers. Will it survive
the rigours of the 21st century - or will it disappear completely?
