Mantenga El Rumbo / Stay The Course

Resumen del Libro

Practical guidance for Christians on being truth and light in a world that increasingly views biblical truth as intolerance and hate. Many people today are afraid and angry. The ground under them is shifting, and they feel powerless to do anything about it. Some look at the massive cultural changes, and they shrug. Thats no big deal. In fact, we need to keep in step with the culture. Go along to get along. Others have an opposite reaction: they fight back in an impassioned, shrill voice that alienates those who disagree with them. Still others withdraw from the contentious arguments because they assume, Whats the use? My voice means nothing. But theres another path–to engage the people and the problems in our culture with a blend of humility and strength. The paradox of faith is that the deeper we go into the deep waters of the tenderness, love, and grace of God–the fact that the king of glory loved us enough to become a servant to pay for our sins and make us his own–he increasingly puts steel in our souls so we can engage the difficult issues in our culture with wisdom, kindness, and courage. Like the culture, we tend to drift–toward disillusionment or self-sufficiency. We need Gods grace and truth to penetrate deep into our hearts, and we need each other, to stay the course. In our culture, people truth are often seen as judgmental and intolerant (and these labels may indeed fit), but Pastor Choco is known for his compassion as well as his unswerving commitment to truth. Stories from his life and his church will be woven throughout this book. Each chapter includes questions to stimulate personal reflection and group discussion. A group leaders guide is included in the appendix
