Sometimes we get the feeling that religion is dead or dying across the world, and that Christianity in particular is heading towards extinction in Western Society.
We know from Scripture that ultimately God’s word is powerful and His church will be built, even in the secular West, but this book is a useful reflection on how to counter the idea that we are in a season when belief in God is especially under threat. I warmly recommend it to encourage you to see that part of the way God is working is in the destruction of intellectual and philosophical ‘strongholds’.
