A profound exploration of faithful hope and the keys to living a joyful, generous faith in a shifting culture, from two respected Christian storytellers and thought leaders.
Collin Hansen and Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra offer a robust message of hope for discouraged Christians in a tumultuous time. Rather than encouraging readers to force a trite smile or bury their heads in the sand, they offer another option-a way that is principled and justice-oriented, full of conviction and compassion. At a time when many are overwhelmed by the seeming decline of Christianity, we need to rediscover the relevance of our historic principles and posture of love toward the world, no matter what is happening around us. Rather than subscribing to a dominant narrative of fear, what would it look like to reclaim our story of sober, joyful hope? Ranging from America's Deep South to the wild world of digital media, from the stories of ancient saints to those of unsung contemporary activists on the frontiers of social justice, Don't Lose Heart shows us how this uncommon hope is already quietly changing the world in the name of Jesus.
Real-life examples from today and from the past give readers the tools they need to navigate the current cultural landscape as a hope-filled opportunity for achievable and lasting change.
