"Christendom is dead. And that's a good thing. The Christian culture that has underpinned Western society for centuries has been eroded. We're now at the point where to disagree with people on issues such as marriage and sexuality, is seen as hateful. Christians are no longer seen as honorable, but as bigots. But history testifies that the more people try to destroy Christianity, the more it grows. So we are entering an exciting period of time because we're back in the place where Christ's church can thrive-- at the margins of society. In this stirring, passionate book, Matt Chandler shows us we need Christian courage like never before, and how to live with compassion and conviction, able to look around positively and reach out confidently. It encourages us not to be thwarted by fear, but to depend on God and have confidence that Christ will build his church, despite continual marginalization. A must-read for any Christian who wants to understand how to stand firm and walk forward in an increasingly secular culture."--Amazon.com. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

I’ve been shown hospitality probably 30-50 times by humble and loving believers (sometimes opening their house for a week at a time while I was in transition in moving in between jobs), and it certainly makes an impression. Hospitality is self denying and sacrificial, but it proves to others in a visible way, that Christ (really is) “our life” Colossians 3:4 and that it’s more satisfying to honor / obey / love Christ John 14:15 than to live comfortably as we pass the time of our sojourn in this world (1 Peter 1).
Pastor Matt’s loving exhortations (especially towards the end) will stir your faith and cause you to feel excited to be alive at a pivotal and unique time as this.
I will note that he does not speak in a polished / professional / eloquent way. It’s very “down to earth.” Some will appreciate this, others may not.
I was edified, and will recommend this to other brethren.
I’ve read books with plenty more substance before, but this will be a refreshing and faith strengthening read, I have no doubt of that. (
