Publisher's Description
2005 Gold Medallion Fiinalist John Adams and Thomas Jefferson lived in serious times. And, because they chose to live serious lives, they changed the course of history. Serious times met with serious lives. This is the means by which the kingdom of God is advanced and the life of a Christ follower is measured. How can you make a difference in the world today? How can you be an influence for Christ? How can you live a life that matters? There is a great movement of God that has been set loose in the world. And in this book James Emery White explores what it means to be on the front lines of what God is doing. It's about action. But more than that it's about our character and our connectedness with God. Read Serious Times to discover how you can influence the course of history in your own day.

“My soul is quaking under the impact of this book. Rather than another yawning treatise on cultural demise, Jim White calls us to 'kick at the darkness till it bleeds light.' And the way we kick, he rightly assesses, is with 'deepened souls and developed minds.' Fill our churches, Lord, with such illumined saints, and start with me.”
“James Emery White has done it again. In this new work, Serious Times, he has given us not only a thorough analysis of the cultural challenges we currently face but a skillfully developed response that calls for the church to deepen our souls and develop our minds as we seek to answer the call of our day. White's well-written and readable volume is indeed a serious mandate for these serious times. The theological depth and careful thinking displayed throughout the book will strengthen pastors, teachers and laypeople who engage in these important issues. I heartily commend this book.”
