Illinois: InterVarsity Press. Hal. 245-255. Setelah pekerjaannya di India, ia melakukan analisis kritis mengenai keaslian dan tugas teologi Kristen dan teologi agama-agama di tengah-tengah budaya pasca pencerahan di Barat. Beberapa buku yang dituliskannya adalah Faith and Power: Christianity and Islam in Great Britain (1988), yang berisi analisis tajam terhadap peran Islam dalam kevakuman agama di Barat. Buku lainnya adalah The Gospel in a Pluralist Society (1989), menarik bersama-sama pemikiran dan poin-poin menyeluruh tantangan pluralisme dalam teologi dan misiologi. Dalam keinginannya melawan kekuatan sekuler pasca modernitas di Barat, Newbigin menggunakan teologi kontekstual. Pendekatannya ini mengandung harapan bahwa teologi kontekstual daat diterakan di dunia, juga di Barat.
