How do we live faithfully in a country becoming more and more hostile to our faith? Like the Israelites who were taken captive in Babylon, we must find a way to maintain our faith in the midst of a pagan culture. But that requires we answer two crucial questions: How did we get here? How do we prepare for the dark and difficult days ahead?  …
In this INTERVIEW WITH @ERWIN LUTZER, I am honored to have interviewed my Pastor for 2 decades on his new book, the Church in Babylon. In it, he writes…”I believe that the time is coming, and is already here when the church
will not be able to depend on the media, the courts, our universities, or even some so-called evangelical churches to stand with us as the onslaught against Christianity comes to us from every direction. We have to learn how to conduct ourselves as a minority in a majority post-Christian world. We have to know how to engage the culture without becoming contaminated by it. God’s passionate invitation to Judah is given to us today.
“Return, faithless Israel, declares the Lord.
I will not look on you in anger,
for I am merciful,
declares the Lord;
I will not be angry forever.
Only acknowledge your guilt,
that you rebelled against the Lord your God
and scattered your favors among foreigners under every green tree,
and that you have not obeyed my voice, declares the Lord.
Return, O faithless children,
declares the Lord;
for I am your master.”

How can American Christians remain faithful in a culture increasingly hostile toward our beliefs? Like the Israelites in Babylon, we must find a way to maintain our faith in the midst of a pagan culture. In this incisive study of Jeremiah, Lutzer explains how we got here—and how we can navigate the difficult days ahead.
