Book Summary of Take Heart by Matt Chandler


Today is a scary time for Christians. The world is increasingly more hostile towards Christians and biblical beliefs. The once comfortable world of Christendom is dying away. No longer is it socially advantageous to be a Christian. No longer will it benefit your business to go to the right church. More than likely today, your business may suffer or even be attacked if you make your Christian foundations public.

With all of these scary things happening, the church can actually flourish just like the first-century church. Christians need great courage as the church and Christianity is pushed back to its origins on the margins of society. Rather than trying to convert culture by Christianizing its morals, condemning culture by isolating from it, or consuming culture by accepting its beliefs, Christians today need great courage in the midst of an increasingly religiously apathetic, agnostic, and atheistic world.

As the world pushes Christians to the margins of society, they don't realize that the church was made to flourish there. It is where the church was born and it is where the church experiences its greatest growth. As the church is back on the margins of society, Christians should respond with courage in living out their faith.
