Pastor Paul writes:
This excellent essay by Stefano Guaglione is our first academic contribution to the website and I welcome it very much. An academic approach to theology and in this case to the subject of Evangelicalism, is similar to the relationship between Haute Couture and modern clothing - in the end its influence filters down to shops in the High Street and affects the lives of ordinary people.
Postmodernism is something most people do not think about - but its effects are there in society and it is a challenge to evangelism. As Stefano points out, by facing that challenge, we can find positive ways to make the gospel clear and relevant to modern man.
