PRAISE FOR The Book That Made Your World How the Bible Created the Soul of - photo 1

PRAISE FOR The Book That Made Your World: How the Bible Created the Soul of Western Civilization

For too long now the West has flirted with a Naturalistic worldview that has jeopardized the most sacred aspects of life and living. Vishal shows how profoundly and meaningfully the Bible does have the prescription for bringing healing to the nations that have never known human dignity or social, economic, and political freedoms.

RAVI ZACHARIAS , author, Walking from East to West and Beyond Opinion

With solid, detailed information, clarity of presentation, and logical force, Vishal Mangalwadi enables anyone willing to see how our Western world depends entirely upon what the Bible, and it alone, teaches about reality and how to live.

DALLAS WILLARD, author, The Divine Conspiracy and The Great Omission

Not since Francis Schaeffers How Should we then Live? in 1977 have we had so lucid and far-ranging an explanation of what troubles the global community.

RANALD MACAULAY MA (Cantab), founder of Christian Heritage, Cambridge, England

Discover moving history you wish you were exposed to in school, page turning prose that captures the past in epic significance, and hope that could only be expressed by one who has tasted the nature of the God who creates, cares for, and loves people, many of whom now face the ultimate challenge.

MICHAEL AUSTIN, communication consultant, New York

In polite society, the mere mention of the Bible often introduces a certain measure of anxiety. A serious discussion on the Bible can bring outright contempt. Therefore, it is most refreshing to encounter this engaging and informed assessment of the Bibles profound impact on the modern world.

STANLEY MATTSON, founder and president, C. S. Lewis Foundation

An intriguing and necessary read. Vishal references competing truth claims of other worldviews, and discusses their inadequacies for providing hope for a world engaged in ever increasing upheaval. Im persuaded that reading this book will become an important part of the Christian university curriculum.

EUGENE HABECKER, president, Taylor University, Upland, Indiana

The Indian perspective is a breath of fascinating fresh air for American readers. I wish and pray that it finds readers willing to have their minds shaken and their hearts, yes, their hearts, stirred as well.

JAMES W. SIRE, author, The Universe Next Door and Habits of the Mind

Vishals book is one of a kind; vast in scope, penetrating in its depth, and prophetic in its message. If we fail to listen and recover the importance of the Bible in personal and public life, then the sun may set on the West. This book is a tract for our times and a must read for anyone concerned with impacting our culture.

ART LINDSLEY, author, C. S. Lewiss Case for Christ

The Book That Made Your World examines the Bibles world-changing influence. Its insights give a clear call to remember what has been forgotten. Utilizing a unique global perspective, Vishal Mangalwadi delivers both a vital warning and a clear hope for Western culture.

SCOTT B. KEY, professor of philosophy, California Baptist University

He sees what made us strong in the past and the consequences of our rejection of Biblical truths in shaping our lives and our nation. May we have ears to hear and eyes to see.

MARY POPLIN, professor, Claremont Graduate University; author, Finding Calcutta

Biblical illiteracy is almost universal in Europe today. We need Vishals clear, prophetic, Eastern voice to jolt us back to reality before our rich biblical heritage slips beyond our grasp.

JEFF FOUNTAIN, director, Schuman Centre for European Studies, the Netherlands

In this wide-ranging and insightful book, Vishal Mangalwadi not only enables us to see from his special perspective the significance of the Bible in establishing many of the blessing of Western culture that we too easily take for granted, but also to see more clearly the dangers involved in turning away from a biblical worldview. I heartily recommend it to all who want fresh eyes to see and a heart to care about the world to which the Lord has called us.

GARY INRIG, senior pastor, Trinity Evangelical Free Church, Redlands, CA

The Book That Made Your World reinforces my 8-year-old assessment that Vishal Mangalwadi understands America better than our own leaders do.

HUGH MACLELLAN, JR, executive chairman, The Maclellan Foundation, Inc.

Mangalwadis perspective is that of a widely-read Christian from the Global South. From it he provides a sober, unflattering assessment of our identity crisis, showing how it results from an under-nourished, severely atrophied world-view, increasingly divorced as we are from the biblical foundation that once gave us both coherence and a self transcending sense of purpose.

DAVID LYLE JEFFREY, FRSC, distinguished professor of literature and the humanities (Honors College); distinguished senior fellow and director of Manuscript Research in Scripture and Tradition, Institute for Studies in Religion, Baylor University; guest professor, Peking University, Beijing

Though I do not agree with everything he writes, I think every person who wants to understand the modern world must read this book.

PRABHU GUPTARA, Freeman of the City of London and of the Worshipful Company of Information Technologists and Chartered Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development; Fellow: of the Institute of Directors, of the Royal Commonwealth Society, and of the Royal Society for the Encouragement of the Arts Commerce and ManufacturesSwitzerland

A small change in direction could have altered the Titanic s fate. Many are seeing the West headed towards catastrophe, but this highly readable, Eastern overview of our history could reshape our future.

DAVID MCDONALD, HealthTeams International and Mars Hill Foundation, WA

Place this book at the top of your must read stack or Kindle queue. You will find yourself cheering as the Bible receives the credit it deserves. Vishals unique view of Western Civilization through the lens of the East is brilliant!

JAN D. HETTINGA, author and pastor, Seattle, WA

Vishal Mangalwadi stands outside Western civilization today and peers in with eyes enriched by studies in Eastern thought and a perceptiveness unspoiled by Western nihilism. He sees what we apparently no longer seethat Western exceptionalism has its taproot in The Bible, and warns us of the coming cultural demise. This book must be read!

JIM MOTTER, president, NORGANIX Biosecurity and director, The Areopagus

Vishal Mangalwadi offers a refreshingly different perspective from what students are taught about what has made America such a source of hope, freedom, and productivity. He explains that America became a shining light because its founding citizens read and reread one book. Neglect that book, he warns, and the light will dim.

RICHARD GREGG, publisher, SueGreggCookBooks

Many modern intellectuals have ridiculed the Bible so loudly and so long that much of the American public is not even aware of its indispensable role in the making of our unique civilization. In The Book That Made Your World it is an Indian scholar that turns the tables on Western secularists, shining the light of truth. I believe this compelling and illuminating scholarship will serve as an effective textbook for years to come.

DR. MARK J HARRIS, president, Business for Community Foundation

Read this book for a rich history lesson and a moving reminder of how the Bible has empowered freedom, education, technology, science, and the very soul of Western civilization. Vishal has a unique way of bridging the gap from the East to the West, speaking with prophetic alarm about what civilization will face if it forgets the Bibles positive influence and foundational value.
