| Summary |
Parsley claims that the current generation of evangelical Christians has failed to engage the culture, present a relevant gospel, and lead and influence through service. He depicts the cost and implications of that failure. He explains how the culture war has entered a new, critical phase for the United States, and discusses the areas in which this war is being fought (cultural, scientific, geopolitical, media and academia) as well as the paradigms, assumptions, and values that animate the humanist, secularist and neo-pagan opponents of Christian governance in America. He offers a strategy for winning, which he calls a New Great Awakening, and shows how evangelism, social action, and the engagement of culture fit into that plan.--From publisher description. |
