Believers in the Age of Empire
Christian Faithfulness and Worship in an Age of Power
By Gary C. Fairchild
What does it mean to follow Christ in a world shaped by power, fear, and competing loyalties?

From the fall of Jerusalem's Temple to the shadow of the Roman Empire, the earliest Christians learned how to remain faithful without control, influence, or cultural dominance. They did not conquer empire. They outlasted it-through worship, truthfulness, humility, and love.

In Believers in the Age of Empire, pastor and teacher Gary C. Fairchild draws on Scripture, history, and decades of pastoral experience to explore how Christian faith is distorted when entangled with power-and how it is renewed when rooted again in Christ.

Engaging Hebrews, the letters of Peter and John, Paul's teaching on grace, and the Book of Revelation, this book invites readers to rediscover a faith formed not by fear or dominance, but by allegiance to the Lamb.

Written for believers who feel disoriented by politicized religion, leadership failure, and cultural conflict, this book offers neither withdrawal nor conquest. Instead, it calls the church back to worship as resistance, truth as witness, compassion as obedience, and community as hope.
