Why America’s Christian Leaders Are Failing… and What We Can Do About It

Stockholm Syndrome Christianity is a monumental achievement. Like Megan Basham’s Shepherds for Sale, it will infuriate precisely the right people. Every thinking Christian has an obligation to read it.

Eric Metaxas, New York Times Bestselling Author

What if America 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 or the Bible?

Those are the explosive questions raised by the new book Stockholm Syndrome Christianity, which exposes how too many influential Christian leaders in America are siding with anti-Christian cultural captors on everything from biblical authority and science to sex, race, and religious liberty.

In this book, you will learn about:

• The influential megachurch pastor who insists that the Bible is no longer defensible in the public square.
• The evangelical Bible scholar who claims that the gospels are like Hollywood movies that are “based on true events” but use “artistic license” to alter facts, invent stories, and even dramatically refashion what Jesus said.
• The powerful Christian scientist in government who spent millions of your tax dollars harvesting body parts from aborted babies for research.
• The evangelical Christian university where more than 70% of the faculty now reject biblical marriage.
• The growing number of Christian pastors, politicians, and pundits who are enabling (or ignoring) the persecution of their fellow Christians.

You will also learn:

• The ways Christians are being manipulated by the news media, social media, and the entertainment industry—and how you can protect yourself and your family.
• The unexpected reason many Christian organizations fail to be faithful.
• 7 ways to be wise when dealing with Christians who embrace the secular culture.
• 21 things you can do to stand for truth in your family, your church, and your community.
