One of my top 10 life changing books would have to be Total Truth: Liberating Christianity from It’s Cultural Captivity by Nancy Pearcey. Why is this book important for “Visionary Women”? Because if we want to educate our posterity (the ones currently under our roofs) in history and how it relates to the critical issues of our day as well as how it relates to the future, then we need to educate ourselves first! Here are some things that others have said about this book:
An outstanding writer….If you buy only one book this year, this would be the book at the top of the list. ~Charles Dunahoo, Christian Education and Publications, Presbyterian Church in America
The most serious undertaking on Christian worldview to date…from one of the finest writers in America. ~Mike Adams, columnist, author
Viewed by many as the Francis Schaeffer of her generation, I suspect Nancy Pearcey’s book, Total Truth, will become essential reading for all serious-thinking Christians. ~Adrian Warnock, UK Evangelical Blog
Total Truth may just be a life-changing book…a masterpiece that is intellectually stimulating but still accessible and practical. ~Tim Challies, Challies.com
“One of the most important Christian books of the last decade…A must for every Christian’s personal library, you’ll go back to it again and again. Don’t wait. Buy it today.”
Daniel L. Edelen, Practical.org
A rare gem…If you’ve never read a book on worldview or apologetics, then you are in for a real treat. If you do not read any other book this year, this is the one book you must read. ~Stacy Harp, Mind and Media
Lucid, easy to understand….For all of its intellectual and theological sophistication, Total Truth is written in a way that the average lay person will understand and appreciate. ~World Magazine
Remarkable….a pleasure to read….clear, stimulating, thoughtful….The Lord has used Nancy Pearcey to bring encouragement to many believers—helping them to not be ashamed of the gospel in their classrooms, their studies, and their workplaces. ~Jerram Barrs, Resident Scholar, Francis Schaeffer Institute
A book of such profound importance that all professing Christians should stop whatever they are doing and read Total Truth from cover to cover before resuming their regular activities…Pearcy is the best living evangelical Christian writer, period. ~Timothy Standish, Andrews University Seminary Studies
Sound good? It’s BETTER than good.
