Synopsis

Twenty years ago, not one nation on earth had legal same-sex marriage. Now, access to same-sex marriage is increasingly seen as a basic human right. In a matter of less than a generation, western cultures have experienced a moral revolution.

Dr. R. Albert Mohler examines how this transformation occurred, revealing the underlying cultural shifts behind this revolution: the acceptance of divorce culture, liberation of sex from reproduction, the prevalence of heterosexual cohabitation, the normalization of homosexuality, and the rise of the transgender movement. He then offers a deep look at how the Bible and Christian moral tradition provide a comprehensive understanding upon which Christians can build their personal lives, their marriages, church ministry, and cultural engagement.

Dr. Mohler helps Christians in their understanding of the underlying issues of this significant cultural shift and how to face the challenge of believing faithfully, living faithfully, and engaging the culture faithfully in light of this massive change.

Goodreads review by Billie on January 30, 2016

While I disliked the content of this book enough to want to give it a single star, I felt obliged to add another star because I can't deny that the book does have some uses. The scholarship in this book is frankly mediocre. Dr. Mohler cites some legitimate sources and references some (unfortunately o......more

Goodreads review by Peter on January 20, 2016

A really, really good book. Almost five stars, but not quite. What I liked: Mohler's analysis of how divorce and birth control paved the way for same-sex marriage. Heterosexuals wanted sexual freedom first. While he does not believe all uses of birth control are sinful, it was encouraging to find con......more

Goodreads review by Jimmy on November 25, 2015

What an outstanding book for where we are today! With precise, clear analysis of the whirlwind of social developments, Mohler’s deft hand in this book penetrates to the real causes of apparently sudden plunge over the cliff. What he well explains is that the plunge was not so sudden after all. Where......more

Goodreads review by Lucas on September 14, 2018

Que livro! Que incentivo à pregação bíblica, expositiva e fiel. "'Poderão viver estes ossos?' Essa não é uma pergunta acadêmica para nós que desejamos pregar a Palavra de Deus. Se os ossos não podem viver, se Deus não pode instilar vida naquilo que está morto, a nossa pregação é vã. Contudo, semana a......more
