Dr. Erwin Lutzer is an accomplished author who has written a number of acclaimed works, including Hitler’s Cross: How the Cross Was Used To Promote the Nazi Agenda; and Who Are You To Judge?: Learning To Distinguish Between Truths, Half-Truths and Lies. This month, he returns with his latest publication, No Reason To Hide: Standing For Christ In a Collapsing Culture.
In the book, he discusses how, in a culture with an ever-narrowing definition of tolerance, Christians can no longer stay silent about the divide between the Bible’s truth and the world’s lies. It takes a closer look at the toxic roots behind the alarming symptoms of a nation in spiritual freefall – and why faith must empower those to engage rather than hide.
The book covers a lot of areas in how people can respond to the battleground issues of today, including…
- Identity-driven social justice ideologies that seek to divide rather than unite
- Cultural attacks on the definitions of sex and gender that turn language into a war
- Progressive pushes within the church that ultimately desecrate the Bible’s teachings
Dr. Lutzer joins us now to discuss his motivations for the book, as well as what can ultimately be learned from it.
