Tom Gilson wants to challenge the tunnel vision of our insular ambitions. At his site Reclaim the High Ground he writes, “[As apologists and worldview ministry leaders], most of us are still aiming for too small a result. We’re focused on the engagement: the question we’re addressing in this article or that, or the crowd we’re speaking to, or the debate we hope to win. What we want out of each engagement is good: to equip, to encourage, or to persuade in the name of Christ. But the engagement isn’t enough. We need to be about turning around Christian intellectual culture, to the end that every church can engage its own people or its own community from a position of strength.”
