Christians have not always presented an inviting picture to the world. Too often we have failed to show the beauty of authentic Christian love. And the world has disregarded Christianity as a result. Francis A. Schaeffer challenges Christians to respond compassionately to a needy world and to show the mark of Christ in all their actions.
Francis A. Schaeffer founded L'Abri Fellowship in Switzerland and was the author of many books, including The God Who Is There and Escape from Reason. Until his death in 1984, he was a noted speaker with a worldwide ministry. His ministry continues through his books, with over two million in print.
James W. Sire (Ph.D., University of Missouri), formerly editor of InterVarsity Press and frequent lecturer throughout the U.S. and Europe, is the author of numerous books, including The Universe Next Door, which has sold over a quarter-million copies in four editions. He is also the author of Naming the Elephant, Why Should Anyone Believe Anything at All? and Habits of the Mind.
