Unspeakable: Facing Up to the Challenge of Evil
By Os Guinness
We are still surprised by evil. From Auschwitz to the events of
September 11, we have been shocked into recognizing the startling
capacity for evil within the human heart. We now know 9/11 revealed
that our country was unprepared in terms of national security, but it
also showed we were intellectually and morally unprepared to deal with
such a barbaric act. Our language to describe evil and our
ethical will to resist it have grown uncertain and confused. Many who
speak unabashedly of evil are dismissed as simplistic, old–fashioned,
and out of tune with the realities of modern life. Yet we must have
some kind of language to help us understand the pain and suffering at
the heart of human experience. Author and speaker Os Guinness
confronts our inability to understand evil – let alone respond to it
effectively – by providing both a lexicon and a strategy for finding a
way forward. Since 9/11, much public discussion has centered on the
destructiveness of extremist religion. Guinness provocatively argues
that this is far from an accurate picture and too easy an explanation.
In this expansive exploration of both the causes of modern evil and
solutions for the future, he faces our tragic recent past and our
disturbing present with courageous honesty. In order to live an
"examined life," Guinness writes, we must come to terms with our
beliefs regarding evil and ultimately join the fight against it.
Addressing individuals as well as a traumatized culture, Unspeakable is
an invitation to explore the challenge of contemporary evil, a call to
confront our culture of fear, and a journey to find words to come to
terms with the unspeakable so that it will no longer leave us mute.

The Last Christian On Earth
By Os Guinness
The “gravedigger thesis” can be put simply: The Christian faith
contributed decisively to the rise of the modern world, but has been
undermined decisively by the modern world it helped to create. The
Christian faith has become its own gravedigger. In the 25 years since
philosopher and social critic Os Guinness first published The
Gravedigger Files, much has happened: the fall of the Soviet Union, the
rise of the computer age, the re emergence of China and India, the rise
of Islamic terrorism, and the worldwide revitalization and
politicization of religion.
But the central mystery of Dr. Guinness’s
“spy novel”—inspired by his affection for John le Carré
thrillers—remains unsolved: Can Christians regain the full integrity of
faith in Christ while fully and properly engaged in the advanced modern
world? This new edition of The Last Christian on Earth, which includes
previously unpublished “top-secret memos,” is Dr. Guinness’s parable
about the future of the Christian church in the West. Written in the
grand tradition of le Carré, Fleming and Clancy, this thriller pays
homage to the genre while transcending it—because the real-life ending
has yet to be written!
