We live in a reactionary culture where divisive issues arise, people on either side throw stones, and everyone ends up more entrenched in their opinions than in reaching common ground--or even exhibiting common courtesy! If there ever was a time for Christians to understand and communicate God's truth about controversial and polarizing issues, it is now. Believers must develop convictions based on research, reason, and biblical truth--and be able (and willing) to communicate these convictions with a love and respect that reflects God's own heart. In Culture Shock, bestselling author, pastor, and radio personality Chip Ingram shows readers how they can bring light rather than heat to the most controversial and divisive issues of our day. Covering topics such as right and wrong, sex, homosexuality, abortion, politics, and the environment, Culture Shock is every engaged believer's must-have guidebook to replacing reactionary hate with revolutionary love.

In this small book Dr. Ashok Nain tries to convey a message to the common man that it is through everyday small and unexpected experiences that one learns the real lessons of life. These experiences build one’s character and make the person he ultimately becomes. Circumstances, under which one is born, brought up, the opportunities one comes across and the decisions one makes are the important aspects to one’s future. Dr. Nain also makes an honest and sincere effort to portray his experiences, analyze them and from them learn lessons so that life’s fundamental object of seeking basic happiness can be achieved. He states that happiness invariably comes “slowly and stealthily like a thief in the night” and concludes that it comes only when the mind is free of fear and clear of negative thoughts. Thus, the purpose of our lives should be to harness the mind and keep it free of these negative thoughts and emotions. The book is certainly worth reading!
