Book Of The Month For March 2018: Embracing Godly Character: The Christian Community's Response to a Godless Culture
By Kenneth Kremer
2018 / Paperback / 200 pages / Young Adult
Overview
We live in a godless culture. What are we to do when the faith of the next generation is threatened and challenged? We respond by embracing godly character.
Embracing godly character means exploring how to center our lives on God’s Word and promises. It means learning how the Christian community of old responded to similar cultural challenges. And it means being rooted in the identity God has given us through Christ.
Parents and other faith leaders within the Christian community are essential to raising godly families, and that begins with starting a conversation about the role that character formation plays in equipping the next generation to stand firm in the faith—for now, and for generations to come.
