El segundo volumen de la serie Encrucijadas en los caminos de la fe explora los grandes desafíos del cristianismo en su interacción con las culturas del mundo helénico, y su influencia en nuestra fe hoy. En ese contexto, determina la relación entre la cultura griega, la fe de Israel y la Iglesia primitiva; así como las interacciones entre la cultura helenística y la cosmovisión del mundo.

Este volumen cubre temas sobre el mundo del período helenístico y los cristianos dentro de él, tales como:

Las conquistas de Alejandro y la expansión del helenismoEl impacto del helenismo en las culturas y religionesEl surgimiento de una cultura a la vez cosmopolita e individualistaEl curso de la filosofía griega y helenísticaLo que los filósofos decían acerca del cristianismoLas diversas respuestas cristianasCómo el helenismo afectó a la iglesia y su teologíaY mucho más

En forma muy abreviada, exploraremos algunas de las consecuencias que este pensamiento ha provocado hasta hoy, a través de una narración vívida, y a veces conmovedora, con numerosas citas de quienes vivieron aquella historia.

“El Dr. J. L. González tiene una comprensión espléndida de las ideas fundamentales… su exposición es de una claridad única”. - Roland H. Bainton, profesor de Historia Eclesiástica en la Universidad de Yale
