Download The Benedict Option: A Strategy for Christians in a Post-Christian Nation AudioBook Free
The light of the Religious beliefs is flickering out all over the Western world. American churches are beset by way of a speedily secularizing culture, the departure of teenagers, and watered-down pseudo-spirituality. Politics solutions have failed, as the self-destruction of the Republican Get together indicates, and the continuing future of religious freedom hasn't been in greater doubt. The guts is not having. The West, take off from its Religious roots, is slipping into a fresh Dark Age. The good news is that there surely is a blueprint for a time-tested Religious response to the decline. In The Benedict Option, Dreher phone calls on traditional Christians to learn from the example of St. Benedict of Nursia, a sixth-century monk who converted from the chaos and decadence of the collapsing Roman Empire and found a fresh way to reside in out the beliefs in community. For five difficult decades, Benedict's monks stored the beliefs alive through the Deep Ages, and prepared just how for the rebirth of civilization. The Benedict Option shows believers developing the resilience to face the modern world with the assurance and fervor of the first chapel. Christians face a period of choosing, with the destiny of Christianity in Western civilization suspending in the balance. With this powerful obstacle to complacency, Dreher shows why churches who fail to take the Benedict Option aren't heading to make it.
