Beschreibung

Power. Fear. Violence. These three idols of Christian nationalism are corrupting American Christianity. 
 
Andrew Whitehead is a leading scholar on Christian nationalism in America and speaks widely on its effects within Christian communities. In this book, he shares his journey and reveals how Christian nationalism threatens the spiritual lives of American Christians and the church. 
 
Now available in paperback, American Idolatry explores 
 
· the harm we cause our neighbors when we embrace the idols of power, fear, and violence; 
· two key examples--racism and xenophobia--that demonstrate how these idols violate core Christian beliefs; 
· the work we can do to disentangle Christianity from Christian nationalism; and 
· Christian practices and postures that confront Christian nationalism and offer a faithful path forward. 
 
"Heartfelt, incisive, and worthy of thoughtful consideration."--Library Journal

    Divine exemption is the will of God for you and me, whether in Africa, Europe, Canada, Australia, Asia, or the USA. The main reason for the covenant of redemption today in Christ Jesus is to exempt us from the horror of pain, affliction, stagnation, destruction, and all manner of evil. Hence, as a child of God, it is a risk to walk in this life without understanding your divine exemption, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour. 
    When we talk of divine exemption in the Bible, we simply mean divine rescue from all works of darkness by the hand of God. It has always been God’s generational plan to rescue His people from the haunts of darkness or evil. The exemption of God in Christ Jesus is still in force today for those who believe in Him. 
    My prayer is that as you read this book, your spiritual understanding concerning your exemption from the powers of darkness or the wickedness of the wicked will be revamped in Christ Jesus. You will not allow evil to come into your environment in Jesus’ name!! Yes, that is our portion in the covenant of redemption, ratified by the blood of Jesus. Nothing missing—nothing broken in your life in Christ Jesus. 
    Get this book! You won’t allow evil or the devil and his cohorts to oppress at will. You will take your position of dominion in the covenant of redemption in Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour henceforth.

    Being a pastor is a complex and demanding role, especially for someone leading alone. The majority of pastors find themselves in this position, leading their smaller church with no additional professional assistance. The challenges are many, including loneliness, isolation, self-doubt, overwhelm, feelings of inadequacy, and a constant search for additional resources and volunteers. Where does a solo pastor turn for help and encouragement? 
     
     
     
    With compassion and plenty of proven, practical strategies, church consultant and former solo pastor Gary L. McIntosh steps in to fill the void. In this book he helps the solo pastor understand the strengths and challenges of the solo-pastor church, develop effective leadership skills, build and maintain vital relationships, manage expectations, spot and neutralize "bullies" who seek to control the church, communicate clearly, make the most of limited resources, establish healthy priorities and boundaries, and more.
