Inhaltsangabe

"America is at a crossroads, and this book will help us navigate the future with greater confidence, wisdom, and authority." Mark Batterson New York Times bestselling author and lead pastor, National Community Church "The only way to make the best decisions for your future is to understand the trends of the present. America at the Crossroads is clear, practical, and ultimately hopeful. You owe it to yourself, your family, and your future to read this book." Dr. John Townsend New York Times bestselling author, leadership consultant, and psychologist "America at the Crossroads offers a panoramic view of the progressive collapse of American society while Christians stand by and watch with seeming indifference. This book provides a necessary prescription focusing on defining a clear vision, restoring a biblical worldview, and embracing personal brokenness before God. How could America go wrong with such a strategy for the future?" David Barton historian, bestselling author, and founder of WallBuilders

"It's no news flash that American culture and values have undergone massive and unprecedented changes. In America at the Crossroads, George Barna dissects these major transformational changes and explores where we're likely headed next. Frankly, it doesn't matter whether we agree with all of his interpretations or pre-scriptions for turning the ship around. What matters most is that we get our heads out of the sand and honestly grapple with the hard facts and data he presents, because how we respond will shape the future of the church and American society as we know it." Larry Osborne author and pastor, North Coast Church

George Barna tells you how, why, and what you can do to shape your future.

We live in a tumultuous time. Upheavals and reversals in culture, popular opinion, morality, race relations, socioeconomic status, and so much more have entire generations feeling off balance or out of touch. How do we keep pace with the breathtaking rate of change in our society when we can hardly find time to keep up with our racing newsfeeds? And in the face of such enormous cultural forces, is there anything we can do?

With America at the Crossroads, bestselling author and cultural analyst George Barna turns his researcher's eye to the most significant trends, compiling and distilling salient information for busy readers who want to shape culture rather than allow it to shape them.

If you've felt overwhelmed by our swiftly changing times, Barna's extensive research and "bottom-line" approach will help give you the solid ground you're looking for--and show you where we're heading next.
