<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This new edition of Os Guinness's parable about the future of the Christian church in the West includes previously unpublished top-secret memos, paying homage to the thriller genre while transcending it--because the real-life ending has yet to be written.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In one of the world's great ironies, the Christian faith contributed decisively to the rise of the modern world, but has been undermined decisively by the modern world it helped to create. The Christian faith has become its own gravedigger. In the 25 years since philosopher and social critic Os Guinness first published <i>The Gravedigger Files</i>, much has happened: the fall of the Soviet Union, the rise of the computer age, the reemergence of China and India, the rise of Islamic terrorism, and the worldwide revitalization and politicization of religion. The central mystery of Dr. Guinness's spy novel inspired by his affection for John le Carré thrillers remains unsolved: Can Christians regain the full integrity of faith in Christ while fully and properly engaged in the advanced modern world? This new edition of <i>The Last Christian on Earth</i>, which includes previously unpublished top-secret memos, is Dr. Guinness's parable about the future of the Christian church in the West. Written in the grand tradition of le Carré, Fleming, and Clancy, this thriller pays homage to the genre while transcending it--because the real-life ending has yet to be written!<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Os Guinness is a philosopher, social critic, and the author of many books, including "Time for Truth," "The Call," and "Long Journey Home."
