The Presbyterian experience in the nineteenth century provides us with numerous ways of reflecting on our own experience. Although Christian influence in America has diminished to the extent that our culture can be described as “post-Christian,” the secular alternatives that have been offered in the West are dismal compared to a vibrant Christianity. In this lesson, Dr. Godfrey concludes this series by calling the church to remain faithful in a dark world and finds encouragement for the church in Psalm 3.
