We have all probably faced disappointments and discontent over the past eight months to some extent or another. The apostle Paul instructed the Philippians to be anxious in nothing and thankful in everything. And when he said everything--he meant everything. Gratitude seems impossible to find if grumbling becomes a state of mind. Instead of a reaction to when things are going well, what if gratitude is actually necessary to knowing the hope of our gracious God?
Every day, it seems American society is falling further away from Christian values and common decency, and Christians are left unsure of how to respond. In his latest book, We Will Not Be Silenced: Responding to Our Culture’s Assault on Christianity, Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer arms believers with a deeper understanding of the hurts and concerns of nonbelievers with regard to social issues so the church is able to respond in a compassionate and gentle manner without affirming their secular beliefs.
