Book Review: Understanding the Times

This book is such an interesting subject, one of which I have never really thought about before. There is so much content that I learned, way too much to give a proper synopsis of it here. I will say this, it is a must read! The only reason I give it 4 out of 5 stars is because of the clearly biased voice of the author. (Also see my other post about this book.)

What I Liked
This book explains WHY society in the US is changing from a Judeo-Christian worldview to a Humanist-Marxist worldview. I now understand so much more about the "why" and "how" the world is changing. I can now see what the progressive movement is doing and how they are/will be successful if we, as Christians, do not do something to stop it.

The author suggests that the main way to stop it is...drum roll...education! But, education in what? He suggests that our homes and churches need to teach what the other worldviews are doing to undermine the family and individual rights. I do agree that we need to teach our children what these other worldviews are about in the home, but I do not think it is the role of the churches because then it seems anti-Christian.

My only criticism for this book is that it seems a little vague in a few areas and that it is clearly biased. However, after reading this book I don't know how anyone could write a truly unbiased book for we ALL have a worldview which dictates how we view everything.
