Man cannot live by bread alone says Jesus. When stated so simply and starkly this truth seems obvious; yet so much of late twentieth century life underlines how often it is ignored. Society lies in the grip of a mind-set which sees man as the measure of all things. This fundamental lack of perspective affects his w hole life and means that he can never see the real answer to his own deepest problems.<\/p>\n
In Not By Bread Alone<\/em>, D. Broughton Knox discusses a wide variety of issues in the contemporary world in which this spiritual short-sightedness has had alarming consequences. He shows how it has distorted and impoverished our experience in personal, local, national and international life.<\/p>\n Listening to the world of man alone has produced devastating famine of spirit. Broughton Knox guides us to the only reliable nourishment and to the remedy which Jesus himself prescribed: the teaching of scripture. With skill, insight and wisdom, he applies it to critical areas of twentieth-century life and points us to a style of life that is centred on God, and therefore both satisfying and enriching.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Discusses contemporary issues such as Race, Punishment, Money, Women\u2019s Liberation, War and Homosexuality. 160pp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7987,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[1249],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-553","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-christian-living","7":"pa_binding-paperback","8":"pa_class-bp","9":"pa_era-20th-century","10":"pa_format-book","11":"pa_isbn-3520","12":"pa_original-pub-date-2047","13":"pa_page-count-2512","14":"pa_recent-pub-date-apr-1-1989","15":"pa_recent-pub-date-year-6199","16":"pa_scripture-whole-bible","17":"pa_short-isbn-3522","18":"pa_subtitle-gods-word-on-present-issues","19":"pa_theauthor-knox-david-broughton","20":"pa_topic-life-issues","22":"first","23":"instock","24":"sale","25":"taxable","26":"shipping-taxable","27":"purchasable","28":"product-type-simple"},"bundled_by":[],"bundle_stock_status":"instock","bundle_stock_quantity":35,"bundle_virtual":false,"bundle_layout":"","bundle_add_to_cart_form_location":"","bundle_editable_in_cart":false,"bundle_sold_individually_context":"","bundle_item_grouping":"","bundle_min_size":"","bundle_max_size":"","bundle_price":[],"bundled_items":[],"bundle_sell_ids":[],"yoast_head":"\n
