"How Now Shall We Live?" is a book co-authored by Charles W. Colson and Nancy R. Pearcey, published in 1999. Charles Colson was a prominent figure known for his work in prison ministry and his role in the Watergate scandal during the Nixon administration. Nancy Pearcey is a Christian apologist and writer who has contributed significantly to the field of Christian worldview studies.

The book explores the concept of worldview—how fundamental beliefs about reality shape every aspect of life—and examines the implications of different worldviews on culture, ethics, politics, and society. Colson and Pearcey argue that a Christian worldview provides a coherent and comprehensive framework for understanding and engaging with the world.

Key themes in "How Now Shall We Live?" include:

1. **Worldview Analysis**: The authors analyze various competing worldviews, such as naturalism, postmodernism, and Eastern mysticism, contrasting them with the Christian worldview.

2. **Christian Cultural Engagement**: They discuss how Christians should respond to contemporary cultural challenges and engage in areas such as politics, education, media, and the arts from a biblical perspective.

3. **Ethical Foundations**: The book explores the ethical implications of different worldviews and argues for the importance of a moral foundation rooted in Christian principles.

4. **Historical Perspectives**: Colson and Pearcey also provide historical examples and case studies to illustrate how worldviews have shaped civilizations and influenced societal norms throughout history.

Overall, "How Now Shall We Live?" is considered a significant work in the field of Christian worldview studies, encouraging readers to think critically about their beliefs and their impact on society. It serves as a call to Christians to live out their faith in a way that positively influences culture and engages with contemporary issues from a biblically informed perspective.
