Conor Sweeney

Abiding the Long Defeat

How to Evangelize Like a Hobbit in a Disenchanted Age

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book makes a fresh contribution to a growing genre of popular literature facing Christianity's late-modern or postmodern decline. It situates the broader fate of Christian faith within the eschatological realism of J.R.R. Tolkien's characterization of history as a "long defeat."
