{"product_id":"a-faith-of-our-own-jonathan-merritt-9780446557238","title":"A Faith of Our Own: Following Jesus Beyond the Culture Wars","description":"Every day, major headlines tell the story of how Christianity is attempting to influence American culture and politics. But statistics show that young Americans are disenchanted with a faith that has become culturally antagonistic and too closely aligned with partisan politics. In this personal yet practical work, Jonathan Merritt uncovers the changing face of American Christianity by uniquely examining the coming of age of a new generation of Christians. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJonathan Merritt illuminates the spiritual ethos of this new generation of believers who engage the world with Christ-centered faith but an un-polarized political perspective. Through personal stories and biblically rooted commentary this scion of a leading evangelical family takes a close, thoughtful look at the changing religious and political environment, addressing such divisive issues as abortion, gay marriage, environmental use and care, race, war, poverty, and the imbalance of world wealth. Through Scripture, the examples of Jesus, and personal defining faith experiences, he distills the essential truths at the core of a Christian faith that is now just coming of age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jonathan Merritt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0446557234\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780446557238\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Faithwords\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/08\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.70w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2012 pg. 63","brand":"Jonathan Merritt","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43919775662335,"sku":"9780446557238","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_d947109a-c913-4bdf-92b5-5d4d78c1b231.jpg?v=1680811839","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-faith-of-our-own-jonathan-merritt-9780446557238","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
