Stan Grenz, In His Own Words

Here is one of my favorite quotes from Grenz. This is taken from A Primer on Postmodernism.

“The transition from the modern era to the postmodern era poses a grave challenge to the church in its mission to its own next generation. Confronted by this new context, we dare not fall into the trap of wistfully longing for a return to the early modernity that gave evangelicalism its birth, for we are called to minister not to the past but to the contemporary context, and our contemporary context is influenced by postmodern ideas.” Stanley Grenz, 10.
