Christ is the only way to God, but there are as many ways to Christ as there are people who come to Him.

Os Guinness

Der 1941 geborene britische Soziologe, Publizist und Kulturkritiker Os Guinness wirkt seit mehreren Jahrzehnten im evangelikalen Spektrum vor allem in den USA. Bekanntheit erlangte er durch Veröffentlichungen über christliche Berufung, Analysen moderner Gesellschaften sowie sein Engagement für weltweite Religions- und Gewissensfreiheit. Bibellesern vermittelt sein Werk Impulse für ein intellektuell reflektiertes Glaubenszeugnis im säkularen Raum, wobei er sowohl fortschreitende Säkularisierung als auch die parteipolitische Vereinnahmung des Evangeliums kritisiert.
