If America is sliding into a moral swamp, what's the best Christian response? The hardball approach of the religious right? Or is there a more productive way to engage our culture?
Dean Merrill, a former vice president with Focus on the Family, challenges us to transform society--and our own hearts--from the inside out. Sinners in the Hands of an Angry Church is about attitude, about living out our convictions in a Christ-like manner instead of bullying our way into the system like any other loud and selfish government lobby.
Merrill shows why returning to the "good old days" is a wish based on a myth. He reveals how God has worked mightily throughout history in spite of decadent cultures, and how he can and will work today in the American culture. Far from a prescription for apathy, this book is a passionate call to Kingdom activity--and our mission as ambassadors to a world Christ died for, not as conquerors who would remake it in our own image. "We've waited a long, long time for the message of this book. . . . A wonderfully readable call to reclaim our heritage." --John and Elizabeth Sherrill, Co-authors, The Hiding Place, The Cross and the Switchblade, God's Smuggler "Dean Merrill rightly warns us that the Church's mission and resource are the power of the Gospel and prayer, not political posturing in anger, distrust and suspicion."--Jack W. Hayford, D. Litt., Senior Pastor, The Church On the Way "Imperative reading for those interested in the relationship between faith and the body politic. Its content will likely shock you!"--Ed Dobson [Cut this endorsement if necessary.]
