{"product_id":"9780227172087","title":"Pascal and Kierkegaard","description":"A two-volume study in the strategy of Christian evangelism asdeveloped by two of its greatest exponents, set in the framework of biographicalstudies. Volume I covers the life and thought of Blaise Pascal, while Volume IIcovers the life and thought of Søren Kierkegaard, each volume standing in theirown right as scholarly contributions to the literature of their respectivesubjects. Although far separated in time and tradition, Pascal and Kierkegaardboth insisted that self-complacent humanity needs first to be disturbed, andthen comforted, by the Gospel. Most of the book is occupied by a thorough review of the lives andworks of the two men, in such a way as to ring out their significant place inthe spiritual history of modern Europe. But the author's purpose throughout isnot merely biographical. He goes on to compare the conception and execution oftheir evangelistic tasks in a way which brings out the remarkable consensusbetween them; and in an epilogue he draws conclusions relating this historicalstudy to the tasks and methods of modern evangelism. ","brand":"Denzil G.M.
