The Bible is clear on a number of issues:Who God isthe holy, just, and gracious Creator of the universeWho we aremen and women created in the image of God for our good and for God's gloryWho Christ is and what He has doneHis life, death, and resurrectionWhat it means to follow Christto die to ourselves and to live in HimWhy this matters for eternityheaven and hell are at stake in our response to the gospelSo how do these truths affect how we respond to the social issues of our dayrealities such as poverty, slavery, abortion, sexual immorality, the degradation of marriage, the neglect of orphans and widows, racism, and persecution?David Platt believes that the truths of the gospel should compel us to a contrite, compassionate, and courageous personal response to social issues in the culture. Using biblical foundations, practical illustrations, and personal exhortations, this study is a pointed yet winsome call for readers to faithfully follow Christ in countercultural ways. There will be a cost. There will be a reward.
