If you're a Christian, this book will change your life. It addresses a problem that has always troubled you. If Christianity is true, why do so many people disbelieve it, why is it losing its hold over the world, and why is it possible to imagine a world of the future with no Christians at all? Christianity is being attacked on all fronts, and seems close to total defeat. The future does not look Christian. It looks the opposite. How can that be if Christianity is the truth of reality? You, as a faithful Christian, are enraged by the way the world has turned against Christianity, and you know the world is lost if it does not turn back to the Truth, revealed in Jesus Christ. The most important idea in Christianity is the Second Coming. Christ is coming back. That's when all the unbelievers will be made to eat their words and beg for forgiveness. The question is this – why hasn't Jesus already returned? What is he waiting for? The answer ought to be obvious. We aren't waiting for him. He is waiting for us. Jesus isn't the hold-up. We are. The First Coming was when Jesus appeared on earth to show us what to do. The Second Coming happens when we have actually done it! But we haven't done it – nowhere near – and that's the whole problem. Christianity reeks of failure. After two thousand years of Christianity, why isn't the world saved? What has gone wrong? The answer is obvious. Christianity has been sabotaged. Its enemies have warped and distorted it. Satan is the Father of Lies. His greatest lie was sewn into Christianity to corrupt Christ's message. That corruption must be undone, so that people see true Christianity, the Christianity of its First Age, when Christianity, as a pure movement of the ordinary people, the oppressed people, the godly people, swept the world, even reaching the doors of the imperial palace of Rome. But that's when everything went wrong. When those doors opened, it was Satan who stood there. It was Satan who welcomed in Christianity and turned it into a message of earthly power, not of love and truth. You all know this. You all want to know what to do about it. How can the Devil be purged from Christianity?

Christianity's greatness has diminished, that is, Christianity historically and culturally considered in the West. By contrast, the greatness of the Christian Faith objectively understood has not lessened: the Lord Jesus Christ and his word and the Cross and resurrection, for example, are just as great today as they ever were. But the Faith at is practiced in the West and particularly as it influences what we nowadays call "public" life is at a low ebb. This diminution has occurred before historically both in the West as well as in the rest of the world, and it has been recovered. A contribution toward that recovery in our own time is the chief objective of the small book.

Why do white Protestants in America embrace a president who seems to violate their basic standards of morality? The answer, Andrew Whitehead and Samuel Perry argue, is "Christian nationalism," the belief that the United States is -- and should be -- a Christian nation. Knowing someone's stance on Christian nationalism, this book shows, tells us more about his or her political beliefs than race, religion, or political party. Drawing on national survey data and interviews with Americans across the political spectrum, Taking America Back for God illustrates the tremendous influence of Christian nationalism on debates about the most contentious issues dominating American public life.

A look inside one of America's most politically consequential churches Mark Driscoll, the founding pastor of Seattle's Mars Hill Church, indelibly impacted American evangelicalism. Driscoll's brash, authoritarian, and profanity-laden leadership grew Mars Hill Church into one of the fastest growing, most innovative, and most influential churches in the country--not an easy task in one of America's most secular cities. Driscoll's gender theology put men at the forefront of American Christianity, rebranding Jesus from a "gay hippie in a dress" to a sword-carrying, "robe-dipped-in-blood" warrior. This type of rhetoric paved the way for evangelicals' embrace of hypermasculine Christianity, priming the pump for their unprecedented support of Donald Trump in the 2016 and 2020 Presidential elections. Making Christianity Manly Again places Driscoll's gender theology in its social and historical contexts and analyzes the contemporary social patterns that explain how a hypermasculine theology helped create a megachurch empire. By addressing the rhetoric of Driscoll's movement through his sermons, along with narratives from former Mars Hill Church members, sociologist Jennifer McKinney leads us to a better understanding of the dynamics of the evangelical impulse to reclaim and glorify men's power. These dynamics, as McKinney shows, have fueled a growing Christian nationalist movement, with enormous implications for religion and politics in America.

Could the gospel be lost in evangelical churches? In this book, J.D. Greear shows how moralism and legalism have often eclipsed the gospel, even in conservative churches. Gospel cuts through the superficiality of religion and reacquaints you with the revolutionary truth of God's gracious acceptance of us in Christ. The gospel is the power of God, and the only true source of joy, freedom, radical generosity, and audacious faith. The gospel produces in us what religion never could: a heart that desires God. The book’s core is a “gospel prayer” by which you can saturate yourself in the gospel daily. Dwelling on the gospel will release in you new depths of passion for God and take you to new heights of obedience to Him. Gospel gives you an applicable, exciting vision of how God will use you to bring His healing to the world.
