Life is Religion: Essays in Honor of H. Evan Runner - Paperback

by Henry Vander Goot (Author), Theodore Plantinga (Author), Albert M. Wolters (Author)

H. Evan Runner was more than a professor of philosophy-he was a herald of spiritual reformation, calling evangelical Protestantism in North America to a renewed obedience to God's Word in every sphere of life. In this compelling exploration of Runner's mission, readers will discover his sharp critique of Western civilization's disintegration under humanist materialism and his unwavering call for a distinctively Christian approach to culture, politics, education, and philosophy. Runner's influence extended far beyond the classroom, shaping a movement committed to the lordship of Christ over all of life. Though he did not live to see a full-scale reformation, his legacy continues to inspire those seeking to reclaim a truly biblical vision for society. This book offers both a historical reflection and a challenge for the future-will the seeds Runner planted bear lasting fruit?
