Modern Christianity, especially modern evangelicalism, has lost sight of its spiritual roots in the 16th-century Reformation. As a result, it is spiritually impoverished and confused. So argues the author in this work, which recalls the modern Church to rediscover the insights of key writers such as Luther and Calvin. Among the many subjects discussed are: the need to return to spiritual roots for refreshment and renewal; the relevance of the Cross for Christian spirituality; the rediscovery of the laity as the people of God; the spiritual potential of human work; the problem of doubt in the Christian life; strategies for affirming the world, while at the same time witnessing to it; the impact of grace upon the Christian life; Christian self-esteem; and the role of discipline in the Christian life.
