About Christians In The Age Of Outrage: How To Bring Our

Product Description Are you tired of reading another news story about Christians supposedly acting at their worst? Today there are too many examples of those claiming to follow Christ being caustic, divisive, and irrational, contributing to dismissals of the Christian faith as hypocritical, self-interested, and politically co-opted. What has happened in our society? One short outrageous video, whether it is true or not, can trigger an avalanche of comments on social media. Welcome to the new age of outrage. In this groundbreaking book featuring new survey research of evangelicals and their relationship to the age of outrage, Ed Stetzer offers a constructive way forward. You won’t want to miss Ed’s insightful analysis of our chaotic age, his commonsensical understanding of the cultural currents, and his compelling challenge to Christians to live in a refreshingly different way. Review “It’s an angry world right now, and we need a grace-filled and gospel-driven response. My friend Ed Stetzer shows us how to walk through the minefields of disagreement in winsome and God-honoring ways.” -- Samuel Rodriguez, President of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference From the Back Cover Why This Outrageous Book?This book is about outrage. Our world seems awash in anger, division, and hostility. We need to decide how to respond. This is indeed our moment to learn how to live like Christ amid the shouting, anger, and hatred. To be sure, there is a lot in this world that is outrage inducing―terrorism, sex trafficking and exploitation, systemic racism, the opioid crisis . . . the list goes on. But this is part of the problem. How do we know when righteous anger has made the turn into unbridled outrage? These questions do not have easy answers. That’s why I wrote this book: to help Christians think through the unique challenges of this age. I’m encouraged because I’ve witnessed so many Christians bringing their best to build the Kingdom of God. The age of outrage cannot―and will not―distract us from what is true. ―Ed Stetzer Ed Stetzer holds the Billy Graham Distinguished Chair of Church, Mission, and Evangelism and is the dean of the School of Mission, Ministry, and Leadership at Wheaton College, where he also serves as executive director of the Billy Graham Center. Stetzer has two earned doctorates and two master’s degrees, and has written or cowritten more than a dozen books and hundreds of articles. He is a contributing editor for Christianity Today, the cohost for BreakPoint This Week, and the general editor of The Gospel Project, a Bible study curriculum used by more than one million people each week.
