gospel visions for the church in a time of empire

By Rick Ufford-Chase

In a time when many American Christians feel caught between their faith and their country's actions, Rick Ufford-Chase offers a pathway forward that honors both spiritual conviction and social responsibility. Faithful Resistance speaks to the profound yearning many believers experience as they wrestle with what it means to follow Christ within the complex realities of modern America.

This thought-provoking exploration invites readers to move beyond comfortable Christianity toward a more engaged and authentic faith practice. Ufford-Chase presents practical ideas for living out Christian values in ways that may challenge conventional expectations but align more closely with the transformative vision he believes God intends for believers and communities.

Rather than offering easy answers, this book serves as a catalyst for deeper conversation and courageous action. The author recognizes that genuine spiritual growth requires more than intellectual understanding—it demands the willingness to take meaningful risks and make difficult choices. Through his insights, readers discover possibilities for reimagining what it means to be church and community in contemporary society.

Faithful Resistance calls Christians to engage with their faith in ways that are both personally transformative and socially conscious. For those ready to move beyond passive belief toward active discipleship, this book provides both inspiration and practical guidance for navigating the tensions between spiritual calling and cultural expectations.
