Witnessing To Postmodern People

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022

This message discusses postmodernism. In today's moral relativism, truth is seen as subjective, and it can supposedly change with circumstances. So, how do we share about Jesus who is "the way, the TRUTH, and the life?"

Modernism and postmodernism are eras, or time periods of societal thought and ...read more
