This assessment will help you diagnose whether your Christian school exhibits symptoms of Stockholm Syndrome Christianity.
Get Stockholm Syndrome Christianity and equip yourself to stand for truth in your family, church, and community.
What if American culture isn’t collapsing because of crusading secularists? What if it’s failing because leading Christians identify more with secular elites than with their fellow believers? Those are the provocative questions posed by Stockholm Syndrome Christianity, which exposes how influential Christian leaders are siding with their anti-Christian cultural captors on everything from biblical authority and science to sex, race, and religious liberty. Going beyond critique, the book identifies root causes and — most crucially — offers practical tips and strategies you can use to help your family, church, and community stand for truth.
