Kuyper for Today

Throughout history, Christians have held a variety of views on how to engage culture—from establishing governmental theocracy to functioning in segregated spaces. Anthony Bradley revisits the writings of Abraham Kuyper, 19th century Dutch theologian and Prime Minister of the Netherlands. Drawing on this rich canon, he attempts to formulate a helpful model for the role of Christians in postmodern culture.
