Richard+Wortman+Sal+And+Light++Francis+Schaeffer

I really enjoyed reading Schaeffer but I think everyone in the class would agree that this book was one of the hardest reads that I have had since I have been at Spring Arbor University. I love the historical part of the book, and the way he compared the way the strength of the Christian Church to the way art was done during certain periods of time. I really did not know how much our modern day theologians beliefs are based on the ideas that came from Francis Schaeffer. The gentleman was very intelligent and knowledgeable about the Bible. The time and effort he put into analyzing the history of art and the history of the Christian church. Then comparing it to the time periods. The following link is a short history of what Schaeffers views were of modern civilization. If you listen to any of the fundamentalist in the churches today you are probably listening to the end version of what Francis Schaeffer started back in the early seventies when he got people like Jerry Falwell along side his beliefs. he also stirred up allot of the people in Washington D. C. with his preaching during this time frame and his talk about getting back into the frame of the beliefs of the Bible and away from humanism. His stand against abortion evoked so much emotion into the country that some people took it to far with the bombings and fires of abortion clinics. Francis Schaeffer lived a long and emotional life for God I wish that my faith could keep me as strong for him as it did for him. http://www.pbs.org/godinamerica/people/francis-schaeffer.html
