Theology

About This Issue: November 06, 1964

Seldom has CHRISTIANITY TODAY probed more deeply into the loss of biblical mission that afflicts the contemporary Church than in this issue. Pierre Marcel warns that extension of current ideological fads could render the Church unnecessary. Clyde C. Hall, a layman, laments the widening indifference toward human need. The third in a series of articles on European theology covers the unsure search for a norm, and a related editorial (page 29) points to the loss of the relevance of European theology for the masses.
