  This book explores how far from Utopia we have come. Lowman guides us on a fascinating journey through our postmodern ideas and lifestyles and unearths a coherent pattern in their logical if, disconcerting, implications. The book's incisive, readable analysis explores how the God question is the central clue for making sense of our experience -- in identity and self worth, purpose and desire, ethics, truth, and intimacy. Using wide-ranging examples from rock, politics, philosophy and street culture, it points from the emptiness at the heart of our postmodern world to a compelling rediscovery of God.. - Identifies and discusses the pressure points of our world.. - Focuses on the interplay between God and culture.. - A compelling presentation of the transforming power of the Gospel.
