"Uncommon Sense" is written for the increasing number of people who are aware of the contradictions implicit in traditional approaches to issues in art, law, science, business, politics, education, the family, and other vital areas. The authors' approach is unique. It is about more than building up ideas and making them work. It is about the process of wisdom development, aimimg to assist the personal development of a wisdom that will become instinctive and govern actions in a spontaneous, godly manner.

Aptly illustrated with both ancient and modern stories, well-reasoned, and accessible to a wide audience, "Uncommon Sense" let's us discover how God's original wisdom for the world has transformative power even for today's fast-paced and pluralistic cultures.
