Book Description
Christianity's greatness has diminished, that is, Christianity historically and culturally considered in the West. By contrast, the greatness of the Christian Faith objectively understood has not lessened: the Lord Jesus Christ and his word and the Cross and resurrection, for example, are just as great today as they ever were. But the Faith at is practiced in the West and particularly as it influences what we nowadays call "public" life is at a low ebb. This diminution has occurred before historically both in the West as well as in the rest of the world, and it has been recovered. A contribution toward that recovery in our own time is the chief objective of the small book.

Book Description
If you're a Christian, this book will change your life. It addresses a problem that has always troubled you. If Christianity is true, why do so many people disbelieve it, why is it losing its hold over the world, and why is it possible to imagine a world of the future with no Christians at all? Christianity is being attacked on all fronts, and seems close to total defeat. The future does not look Christian. It looks the opposite. How can that be if Christianity is the truth of reality? You, as a faithful Christian, are enraged by the way the world has turned against Christianity, and you know the world is lost if it does not turn back to the Truth, revealed in Jesus Christ. The most important idea in Christianity is the Second Coming. Christ is coming back. That's when all the unbelievers will be made to eat their words and beg for forgiveness. The question is this – why hasn't Jesus already returned? What is he waiting for? The answer ought to be obvious. We aren't waiting for him. He is waiting for us. Jesus isn't the hold-up. We are. The First Coming was when Jesus appeared on earth to show us what to do. The Second Coming happens when we have actually done it! But we haven't done it – nowhere near – and that's the whole problem. Christianity reeks of failure. After two thousand years of Christianity, why isn't the world saved? What has gone wrong? The answer is obvious. Christianity has been sabotaged. Its enemies have warped and distorted it. Satan is the Father of Lies. His greatest lie was sewn into Christianity to corrupt Christ's message. That corruption must be undone, so that people see true Christianity, the Christianity of its First Age, when Christianity, as a pure movement of the ordinary people, the oppressed people, the godly people, swept the world, even reaching the doors of the imperial palace of Rome. But that's when everything went wrong. When those doors opened, it was Satan who stood there. It was Satan who welcomed in Christianity and turned it into a message of earthly power, not of love and truth. You all know this. You all want to know what to do about it. How can the Devil be purged from Christianity?

Book Description
A look inside one of America's most politically consequential churches Mark Driscoll, the founding pastor of Seattle's Mars Hill Church, indelibly impacted American evangelicalism. Driscoll's brash, authoritarian, and profanity-laden leadership grew Mars Hill Church into one of the fastest growing, most innovative, and most influential churches in the country--not an easy task in one of America's most secular cities. Driscoll's gender theology put men at the forefront of American Christianity, rebranding Jesus from a "gay hippie in a dress" to a sword-carrying, "robe-dipped-in-blood" warrior. This type of rhetoric paved the way for evangelicals' embrace of hypermasculine Christianity, priming the pump for their unprecedented support of Donald Trump in the 2016 and 2020 Presidential elections. Making Christianity Manly Again places Driscoll's gender theology in its social and historical contexts and analyzes the contemporary social patterns that explain how a hypermasculine theology helped create a megachurch empire. By addressing the rhetoric of Driscoll's movement through his sermons, along with narratives from former Mars Hill Church members, sociologist Jennifer McKinney leads us to a better understanding of the dynamics of the evangelical impulse to reclaim and glorify men's power. These dynamics, as McKinney shows, have fueled a growing Christian nationalist movement, with enormous implications for religion and politics in America.

Book Description
Obviously, this book finds its title from the slogan created by former president Donald Trump Make America Great Again. This book is intended to argue, that for America to be great, it must be Christian. This does not mean that other religions are not welcome as has never been the case in America, but rather as a country based upon biblical principles, there has always been true freedom of religion. The point being that this country was founded upon the teachings of the Bible which is why there is freedom of religion, each person is free to choose for themselves either heaven or hell. This book is divided into three sections, the first one discussing the fact that America was founded as a Christian nation and as such it grew to be the most powerful and prosperous nation on the earth. Since departing from the Bible, its teachings and its God, America is now in a steep decline. The second section discusses the 5 main institutions of any society and how that in each case, they work better when they follow the teachings and principles of the Bible. The final section is what can still be done to turn America back to its roots and back to the Bible. As Bible believers, we know the time is short and the coming of our Lord to take home His people and to judge the world in His righteousness is indeed imminent. But in these last days, lest us not be lax in the preaching of the gospel and making a stand for the things that are holy. Let us get off of our seats, onto our feet and into the streets, to be as the prophets of old and declare that thus says the Lord.

Book Description
This book explores how polarised interpretations of America’s past influence the present and vice versa. A focus on competing Protestant reactions to President Trump’s ‘Make America Great Again’ slogan evidences a fundamental divide over how America should remember historical racism, sexism and exploitation. Additionally, these Protestants disagree over how the past influences present injustice and equality. The 2020 killing of George Floyd forced these rival histories into the open. Rowley proposes that recovering a complex view of the past, confessing the bad and embracing the good, might help Americans have a shared memory that can bridge polarisation and work to secure justice and equality. An accessible and timely book, this is essential reading for those concerned with the vexed relationship of religion and politics in the United States, including students and scholars in the fields of Protestantism, history, political science, religious studies and sociology.

Book Description
Short. Timely. Poignant. Pointed. Burying White Privilege is all of these and more. This is the book that everybody who cares about contemporary American Christianity will want to read. Many people wonder how white Christians could not only support Donald Trump for president but also rush to defend an accused child molester running for the US Senate. In a 2017 essay that went viral, Miguel A. De La Torre boldly proclaimed the death of Christianity at the hands of white evangelical nationalists. He continues sounding the death knell in this book. De La Torre argues that centuries of oppression and greed have effectively ruined evangelical Christianity in the United States. Believers and clerical leaders have killed it, choosing profits over prophets. The silence concerning—if not the doctrinal justification of—racism, classism, sexism, and homophobia has made white Christianity satanic. Prophetically calling Christian nationalists to repentance, De La Torre rescues the biblical Christ from the distorted Christ of white Christian imagination.
