Series: Christian Vocation in Context: The D. James Kennedy Institute of Reformed Leadership

No one doubts we have quickly moved to what Charles Taylor called ""a secular age."" How do Christian pastors, professors, seminary students, and others respond to the myriad issues now facing the Body of Christ? Following on a biblical and reformed understanding of public theology, Milton along with trusted theologians John Frame, George Grant, Peter Lillback (and a special contribution from noted Orthodox economist and theologian John Panagiotou) not only provide biblical responses to the issues of our time but in doing so give the Church a method, a way, to conduct faithful Gospel ministry in an increasingly hostile post-Christian world. A must for classes on ethics, sociology of religion, pastoral theology, and serious-minded Christians seeking insight that they might ""Understand of the times"" (1 Chr 12:32).

Reviews for Lost and Found: Public Theology in the Secular Age

""The evangelical church now faces unprecedented challenges in a secular age. The complexities of a post-Christian society and the allure of a seductive culture have destabilized the thinking and discipleship of many Christians. In this important new book, Michael Milton combines thorough cultural analysis with a reformed public theology, pointing us to a model of Christian cultural engagement that is faithful to the gospel and grounded in biblical truth. Milton offers a timely vision for the church--a vision that is desperately needed in the twenty-first century."" --Robert J. Pacienza, senior pastor, Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church
