As a result, Christianity's influence in nineteenth-century England was severely weakened. One hundred years later, John MacArthur, troubled by the seeker-sensitive movement and an emphasis on pragmatism within the church, sounded the same alarm with the first edition of \u003cem\u003eAshamed of the Gospel\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this newly revised and expanded edition, MacArthur gives an overview of developments in the seeker-sensitive movement since his book was first published in 1993. New material traces the line of pragmatic philosophy from the seeker-sensitive movement through the Emergent phenomenon, explaining why the latter is a philosophical heir of the former-and an even greater danger; chronicles the failure of pragmatic approaches to church growth; and emphasizes the importance of evangelicals solidly committed to biblical doctrine rising to positions of leadership.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John MacArthur\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1433566753\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781433566752\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Crossway\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.90d","brand":"John MacArthur","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44045243613439,"sku":"9781433566752","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f9b8864a-918c-44e1-94bd-2a8db226f22d.jpg?v=1684977593","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ashamed-of-the-gospel-john-macarthur-9781433566752","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
