About this audiobook
Welcome to the front lines. Everywhere we turn, battle lines are being drawn—traditional marriage vs. gay marriage, pro-life vs. pro-choice, personal freedom vs. governmental protection. Seemingly overnight, culture has shifted to the point where right and wrong are no longer measured by universal truth but by popular opinion. And as difficult conversations about homosexuality, abortion, and religious liberty continue to inject themselves into our workplaces, our churches, our schools, and our homes, Christians everywhere are asking the same question: How are we supposed to respond to all this? In Counter Culture, New York Times bestselling author David Platt shows Christians how to actively take a stand on such issues as poverty, sex trafficking, marriage, abortion, racism, and religious liberty—and challenges us to become passionate, unwavering voices for Christ. Drawing on compelling personal accounts from around the world, Platt presents an unapologetic yet winsome call for Christians to faithfully follow Christ into the cultural battlefield in ways that will prove both costly and rewarding. The lines have been drawn. The moment has come for Christians to rise up and deliver a gospel message that’s more radical than even the most controversial issues of our day.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5AMAZINGGG !!! this was just such an inspiring book. It truly blessed me and my walk with the Lord
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A book that really gives a microscopic view of what I call is in this world and how we can actually live out the counterculture life Christ has called us to live. and John 17 Jesus prayed that we would be in the world but not of the world. Jesus prayed a countercultural prayer over us before he died for us. This book is highly convicting yet so true. We need to hear what this book is saying to us.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent and thorough with steps to move forward. Convicting and compelling.
