How Christians Can Succeed Today: Reclaiming the Genius of the Early Church - Paperback

Rediscovering the radical, transcendent, and sometimes downright strange message of Jesus, How Christians Can Succeed Today is the third book in Greg Sheridan's bestselling trilogy about Christianity in the modern world.

The first Christians lived in a world far more hostile than today's. They had little money, no influence, and numbered only a few hundred--yet they transformed the ancient world through courage, grace, and conviction. Sheridan explores how they built communities, faced persecution, cared for the sick, championed women's equality, and redefined what it means to live a life centered on Jesus Christ.

Drawing parallels to the challenges of modern life, Sheridan also profiles contemporary Christians who embody those same values: Leila and Danny Abdallah, young people making radical commitments to faith, pastors serving remote communities, and cultural figures such as Marilynne Robinson, Jordan Peterson, Bishop Robert Barron, and Dallas Jenkins.

A stirring call to return to the raw, revolutionary faith of the early church, How Christians Can Succeed Today reveals how living Christ-centered lives can once again transform our divided world.
