Abstract

“Biblical faith does not rest on the success or failure of the world on human terms, which is to say, Christians are called at once to affirm the the world with every fiber of their being, while being aware that there is another world which is perfect. I am even prepared to argue, if I must, that such a paradoxical posture is essential to a truly secular style of life. Anyone who knows the secular world will not be bemused by its romantic frontiers. Such frontiers may exist; then again they may not. Much churchly frustration today derives from the romantic notion that the grass is greener on the other side. … The church must neither reject nor idolize secular society … her fundamental task is to recover her own integrity.”
