The Consequence of Ideas - AOY12 wks

by R. C. Sproul Author

From public-policy decisions and world events to theology, the arts, education, and even conversations with friends, history’s most influential ideas affect nearly everything we see, think, and do. Thus, it is critical to understand and take seriously the ideas that are shaping us. The more familiar we are with the streams of thought that have saturated Western culture through the ages, the greater our ability to influence this culture for Christ. Tracing the contours of Western philosophy from the ancients to the modern thought—including Plato, Aquinas, Descartes, Kant, and Freud—R.C. Sproul helps us understand the ideas that have shaped us so we can have a greater influence in this world for Christ.
