Publisher's Synopsis
Carl R. Trueman Explores Modern Identity Politics from a Biblical Perspective in This Strange New World Study Set
In his book Strange New World, Carl R. Trueman reviews the history of Western thought--including the Romantics, Nietzsche, Marx, and the New Left--showing how the world arrived at this current era of "expressive individualism."
This set features the entire Strange New World suite: a copy of the book, a companion study guide, and a DVD video study hosted by Trueman. The study guide walks through each of the book's 9 chapters, summarizing key points, posing thought-provoking questions, and providing Bible verses for further reading. The video study features 9 brief teaching sessions that further explore important topics including original sin, how culture influences beliefs, and defending biblical convictions. This set helps readers understand the important biblical ideas in Strange New World, making it ideal for small groups or individual study.
