Synopsis
Can the Church Survive in the Changing Order? A clear, thoughtful look at how religion fits into a world in flux. This classic study argues that faith must engage with modern life rather than retreat from it, guided by the teachings of Jesus and the human search for meaning.
In this timely examination, Fitch surveys the upheavals of the postwar era, from shifting political power to evolving social norms. He asks whether the church can adapt to new values without losing its essential purpose, and he outlines how religion might remain a steady force in a rapidly changing world.
- Understands how war, culture, and new ideas reshape faith and practice
- Compares traditional authority with emerging notions of voluntarism and personal responsibility
- Explains why older religious structures may need to reform to stay relevant
- Suggests a constructive path for church leadership and lay readers
Ideal for readers of religious history, philosophy of religion, and those exploring the role of faith in modern society.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book proposes that momentous shifts are occurring in the world's political, social, economic, and cultural institutions. The author presents numerous examples of change that are said to be a result of significant progress in the realm of human thought. These changes are seen as a rejection of absolutism in favor of self-governance, and as a shift away from a belief in external authority toward a belief in the inherent potential and wisdom of humanity. The author presents evidence that religion is not exempt from this change, citing widespread feelings that religious institutions and their leaders are out of touch with the current concerns of the people. The author suggests that the church has options of either ignoring these changes or acknowledging and responding to them with humility and sincerity. This book will appeal to readers interested in the relationship between societal and religious change throughout history.
