The Calvinistic concept of culture

How should a Christian live in a secular world? This book presents the vital issue of the relationship between religion and culture from a Reformed perspective. Van Til uses the term culture to designate 'that activity of man, the image-bearer of God, by which he fulfills the creation mandate to cultivate the earth, to have dominion over it, and to subdue it. Culture, therefore, is removed from a totally secular context, is placed in the arena of Christian activity and influence, and is constructively viewed from a biblical perspective.' The text explores both the historic development and the contemporary implications of the Calvinistic framework of culture and theology -- From publisher description.
