Synopsis: Like the Israelites in Babylon, today's Christians must find a way to maintain our faith in the midst of a pagan culture. But that requires we answer two crucial questions: How did we get here? How do we prepare for the dark and difficult days ahead? In "The Church in Babylon: Heeding the Call to Be a Light in the Darkness", Erwin W. Lutzer (Pastor Emeritus of The Moody Church, Chicago, Illinois) answers both of these questions. He will walk you through the many parallels between the church in America and God's people in Babylon, and embolden you to be a gospel witness. You'll be encouraged not to compromise your faith even when under constant pressure from all corners of society. And more than all this you will have a fresh encounter with Jesus Christ, as you consider the biblical role of those in exile. Inspired and inspiring, "The Church in Babylon" is very highly recommended reading for all members of the Christian community regardless of their denominational affiliations. It should be noted for personal reading lists that "The Church in Babylon" is also available in a digital book format (Kindle, $9.99).
