Time for Truth: Living Free in a World of Lies, Hype & Spin

by Os Guinness

Time for Truth: Living Free in a World of Lies, Hype & Spin Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A challenging, countercultural examination of the necessity and decline of truth--the root of true freedom--in modern culture

Synopsis:

In postmodern society, truth no longer exists in any objective or absolute sense. At best, truth is considered relative. At worst, it's a matter of human convention. But, as Os Guinness points out in this book, truth is a vital requirement for freedom and a good life.

Time for Truth urges readers to seek the truth, speak the truth, and live the truth. Guinness shows that becoming free and truthful people is the deepest secret of integrity and the highest form of taking responsibility for ourselves and our lives. Now in paperback, this engaging book will interest Os Guinness fans, thoughtful readers, and those concerned with moral, political, and cultural issues.

In our postmodern society, truth no longer exists in any objective or absolute sense. At best, truth is considered relative; at worst, a matter of human convention. But as Os Guinness points out in this important book, truth is a vital requirement for freedom and a good life. Time for Truth will challenge you to seek the truth, speak the truth, and live the truth. It will show you that becoming a free and truthful person is the deepest secret of integrity and the highest form of taking responsibility for yourself and for your life. "Guiness cuts to the heart of a problem that threatens America and the West more than any armed enemy-the decline of truth as a guiding principle in our lives." Fred Barnes, The Weekly Standard "This call for a robust and courageous defense of the use of reason in search of ultimate truths is a welcome gift." Elliott Abrams, Ethics and Public Policy Center Os Guinness is an internationally known speaker and senior fellow of the Trinity Forum in McLean, Virginia. He has written or edited numerous books, including Invitation to the Classics and The Long Journey Home.
