Riassunto

Contending for the Faith invites readers to explore two millennia of church history and to learn how God works through the church's ministry to spread the gospel of God's kingdom and, in the end, to defeat the forces working to oppose him. E. Daisy Rodriguez combines dramatic retellings of the biblical narrative, direct citations from the Scriptures, and reflections that connect the lives and ministries of contemporary Christians with God's work in the church throughout its history. Various chapters treat topics like God's commission, the church, Christ's gifts, historical critique, prophetic vision, and assurance of God's victory. The tone is approachable and energetic, blending together explanations of the biblical background and the historical record with sections that speak to the contemporary mission of the church and its future mission. Like a lighthouse, the church has and will continue to light the way for a world lost in the darkness. If you have asked yourself what God's plan is for his people and wondered how to interpret the threats made by forces opposed to God and the church, then Contending for the Faith will give you both a helpful introduction to the sweep of history from the church's birth to Christ's return in power. God's people can be encouraged and trust that God, in the end, will carry out his plans for the church, the body of Christ.
