Faith and Culture

by Bernard Eugene Meland

Book Overview

This book is an important discussion of a subject close to the center of contemporary theological in­terest. Dr. Meland draws upon cultural anthropology and modern metaphysics to show why Christian faith, in a profound sense, is indispensable to West­ern culture as well as ineradicable.

Faith and Culture represents a departure from Dr. Meland's previous work. Long a pillar of the "Chicago" school of thought in theological matters, he has here approached the ideals of the "neo­Reformation" school, and has made a valuable con­tribution to contemporary thought about the nature of faith, man, the church, and about the relation between religion and culture.
