Good faith : being a Christian when society thinks you're irrelevant and extreme / David Kinnaman and Gabe Lyons.
It is easy to feel overwhelmed as we try to live faithfully in a culture that seems increasingly hostile to the Christian faith. With a growing backlash against religion and people of faith, it's harder than ever to hold onto our convictions while treating friends, neighbors, coworkers, and even family members who disagree with respect and compassion. Based on groundbreaking research, this timely book by the bestselling authors of unChristian explores politics, sexuality, race, gender, and religious freedom, helping you: · respond with compassion, clarity and confidence to the most toxic issues of our day · discover the most significant cultural trends that are creating both obstacles and opportunities for Christians · know what you believe and why it doesn't make you a judgmental or extreme person · stop being afraid to talk about what you believe and start having meaningful conversations about tough issues · understand the heart behind opposing views and learn how to stay friends across differences. - inside front fla
