This book is written by the brother of Elizabeth Elliott. He was a Lit prof at Gordon Conwell and has traversed from an Evangelical to an Anglican and now a Catholic. This book is brilliant and insightful. Eric Metaxas calls it the most important book of the 20th century. It is a critique of modern secularism from a vantage point you have never read before.

In the new myth nothing means anything. In the old myth everything means everything. Howard reminds us that human experience imbues everything with meaning from meals to handshakes to death. We unused our imaginations and ceremony or ritual to find meaning in the mundane. The old myth says that imagination points to reality. The new myth says imagination is fanciful. Things we tell ourselves to feel better.
