Carl R. Trueman Libros

Modern culture is obsessed with identity. Since the landmark Obergefell v. Hodges Supreme Court decision in 2015, sexual identity has dominated both public discourse and cultural trends -- yet no historical phenomenon is its own cause. From Augustine to Marx, various views and perspectives have contributed to the modern understanding of the self. In this timely book, Carl Trueman analyzes the development of the sexual revolution as a symptom rather than the cause of the human search for identity. Trueman surveys the past, brings clarity to the present, and gives guidance for the future as Christians navigate the culture in humanity's ever-changing quest for identity. - Publisher

Not content to leave it like this he goes on to suggest ways of responding to these challenges, ways that remain faithful to the Scriptures and the theology of the Reformers drawn from the pages of God's word. He then points towards a future that embraces and radiates these wonderful doctrines of grace. (Back Cover).
