Church of Cowards: A Wake-Up Call to Complacent Christians
Book information
Description
What Would You Surrender for God? Christians in the Middle East, in much of Asia, and in Africa are still being martyred for the faith, but how many American Christians are willing to lay down their smartphones, let alone their lives, for the faith? Being a Christian in America doesn't require much these days. Suburban megachurches are more like entertainment venues than places to worship God. The lives that American "Christians" lead aren't much different from those of their atheist neighbors, and their knowledge of theology isn't much better either. Matt Walsh of The Daily Wire exposes the pitiful state of Christianity in America today, lays out the stakes for us, our families, and our eternal salvation, and invites us to a faith that's a lot less easy and comfortable—but that's more real and actually worth something. The spiritual junk food we're stuffing ourselves with is never going to satisfy. As St. Augustine said over a millennium ago, our hearts are restless until they rest in Him. Only God Himself can make our lives anything but ultimately meaningless and empty. And we will never get anywhere near Him if we refuse to take up our cross and follow Jesus. This rousing call to the real adventure of a living faith is a wake-up call to complacent Christians and a rallying cry for anyone dissatisfied with a lukewarm faith.
