Addressing issues such as gender identity, abortion, technology, and poverty, Dr. Myers challenges readers to ask: How can an authentic Christian worldview provide a compassionate, effective witness in culture today?
 
Dr. Myers first shows readers what they can learn from Christian history—and why today’s issues might not be as new as they seem. Then he takes them through the significant topics that affect them every day, offering biblical ideas for conversing with others in an increasingly hostile culture.
 
This capstone book to a groundbreaking worldview trilogy equips readers to apply a bold Christian witness to their relationships with loved ones, neighbors, and colleagues.

Top Highlights

“‘Change is not the absence of struggles; change is the freedom to choose holiness in the midst of our struggles. I realized that the ultimate issue has to be that I yearn after God in total surrender and complete obedience.’” (source)

“This book is an invitation to stop playing God and start engaging the world around us based on his intended design for it and for us. It isn’t enough to merely start caring. We must care well.” (source)

“For a while we make our decisions, but inevitably our decisions begin making us.” (source)

“Our personal legacy is the sum of our decisions over a lifetime. By extension, our cultural legacy results from the interaction of everyone’s decisions.” (source)

“3. Meaning. What is real and true, and how do we know?” (source)
