Editorial Review:

Product Description:
With the publication of this Trilogy, Dr. Schaeffer's three foundational books are available for the first time in one volume. Schaeffer himself considered these three books to be essential to everything he wrote (twenty-three books in all), and it is here especially that we see his ability to understand the deep need of modern man for truth, beauty, and meaning in life.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful Intellectual Discussion
This is an excellent review of modern society and its decline from the view of a Christian intellectual giant.A Francis A. Schaeffer Trilogy: Three Essential Books in One Volume



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Reviewing the links between culture and religion

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Right to the point
Schaeffer doesn't hesitate to jump right into what he wants to say! He doesn't give a preview of his intentions, he just says it. Which, that is confusing sometimes because you don't always know where he's coming from. But otherwise, great book!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - These books saved me
I'm not exaggerating when I say that Schaeffer's "Trilogy" saved my faith, or at least saved me many, many years of trouble. The distinctions he makes between Biblical faith, church culture, and church history are life-saving to the sensitive and deep thinking. His overview of history and the history of philosophy are likewise lucid and at times revelatory (and echo a similar treatment by American Awakening theologian Jonathan Edwards whose overview of Western history is also simple brilliance).
