“ This is a much-needed reminder that gospel Christianity thrives when it is out of power, and that Christian courage comes from trusting not in cultural power but in God’s power and grace.”
TIMOTHY KELLER, Founding Pastor, Redeemer Presbyterian Church, Manhattan; author of Making Sense of God “ We live in an age of increasing hostility toward Christianity in the West. These are days that will require courage, conviction, and clarity of vision. Matt Chandler’s new book, Take Heart, is a thoughtful, pastoral, and brave call for faithfulness in a trying time. These pages are filled with practical wisdom and sound theological principles that fuel courage in the face of opposition.”
R. ALBERT MOHLER, JR., President of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary “In Take Heart, Matt Chandler offers both challenge and comfort to Christians in an age where both are desperately needed. He speaks with both a prophet’s urgency and a pastor’s heart, and this book will serve all Christians who are wondering how we navigate the troubled waters of our present age.”
MIKE COSPER, Executive Director, Harbor Media; author of Recapturing the Wonder “Fearing, agonizing, retreating, embracing. These are a few of the responses we see and might be experiencing in a ‘post-Christian’ culture. Chandler knows how many of us feel in our current cultural moment in the West. Through biblical truth, Chandler helps redirect our eyes to the One who can strengthen and encourage us so we might have courage.”
TRILLIA NEWBELL, author of God’s Very Good Idea and Enjoy “As Christians, we are defined not as a people of fear but a people of hope. Matt Chandler has written a timely book that encourages, inspires, and equips believers to walk in that hope in our current culture. This is an excellent resource for every believer desiring to live as ‘salt and light’ in today’s world.”
