Christianity is facing great opposition. No one is being thrown to the lions, but many followers of Christ face persecution because of their beliefs. At the very least, most know how it feels to end up on the wrong side of a politically correct conversation. More than ever before, we need believing and behaving disciples, men and women who are ready to stand up and stand together to change the world as early Christians did: one righteous choice at a time.
Filled with personal experiences and insightful stories, this book emphasizes the importance of living in accordance with our values every single day, with practical suggestions for how to actually pull it off. Christ does not just want people to acknowledge his grace, writes Brad Wilcox. He wants them to be transformed through it. Christ does not just want people to come to him. He wants them to become like him, a process that takes place seven days a week, fifty-two weeks a year, and throughout all the years of our lives.
