Take Heart

Christian Courage in the Age of Unbelief

By: Matt Chandler

Narrated by: Lyle Blaker

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 tells 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-listen for any Christian who wants to understand how to stand firm and walk forwards in an increasingly secular culture.

I would love for Matt Chandler to narrate as his passion for Christ and God's people comes out through his voice too, not just his written words.

I have been a member of the village church for 13 years, so I enjoyed this sermon series years ago in person. The book was a fantastic reminder that Jesus has authority over all things and periods of time and that His mission is unchanged regardless of when or where you live. Highly recommend the book and the sermon series is a great resource too.

I so needed the hospitality perspective re-fired in my life! It was an encouragement to hear it and see the God view on that.
