Legacy of Francis Schaeffer

Christianity Today has printed/posted and article entitled "Not Your Father's L'Abri: The Swiss retreat now tends less to philosophical skeptics than to disaffected evangelicals." The article states or implies that L'Abri Fellowship in Switzerland has to some extent abandoned the theology and heritage of founder Francis Schaeffer and become more postmodern and "a community ambivalent about Schaeffer's legacy and ill at ease with mainstream evangelical culture."

The Shepherd's Scrapbook responds that at least the original fountain of Schaeffer wisdom and thinking is still available in his Complete Works. My wife bought me a copy almost 25 years ago and I still highly value those books.
