I received this book free from the publisher. I commend True Spirituality to first-time readers of Francis Schaefer and urge them to continue the journey by pouring over some of his other well-known works such as The God Who is There, He is There and He is Not Silent, and Death in the City. One sentence sums up what Schaeffer refers to as true spirituality: “To live moment by moment through faith on the basis of the blood of Christ, in the power of the Holy Spirit, is the only really integrated way to live.” Schaeffer shows how creatures are shackled by sin and points the way to freedom through the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ. The great strength of True Spirtuality is its simple presentation of the gospel. Crossway Books has reprinted this important work for a new generation of readers. True Spirituality, originally written in 1971 alerted readers to the importance of propositional truth and set them on a course that enabled an approach to the Christian life that is timeless. Schaeffer’s love for truth and lost people helped galvanize a generation for the sake of the gospel. Schaeffer, True Spirituality (Wheaton: Crossway Books, 2020),įrancis Schaeffer was one of the most insightful Christian thinkers of the Twentieth century.
