Publisher's summary

This audiobook combines a serious examination of the state of today's church and a powerful solution: reclaiming the gospel of grace found in the confessional truths of the Reformation.

Though the Christian church has achieved a worldly sort of success - big numbers, big budgets, big outreaches - these are not good days for evangelicalism. Attendance is down, and it is increasingly difficult to distinguish so-called "believers" from their non-Christian neighbors - all because the gospel of grace has been neglected.

In this work, the late James Montgomery Boice identifies what's happened within Evangelicalism and suggests how the confessional statements of the Reformation - scripture alone, Christ alone, grace alone, faith alone, and glory to God alone - can ignite full-scale revival.

"A church without these convictions has ceased to be a true church, whatever else it may be," he wrote, but "if we hold to these doctrines, our churches and those we influence will grow strong."

Still Relevant To Today!

Although written some 20 years ago, this book is highly relevant to today! The author carefully and systematically lays out the dangers of modern/progressive “Christianity”. At the same time, he does an exceptional job explaining

Amazingly insightful, timely for 2022

Boice describes problems and offers solutions for regrettable state of church (at least in USA) today.

That’s a Great Question!

Boice writes an extensive and thoughtful treatment of the 5 Solas of the Reformation and their importance to the church. He also gives a fair historical perspective of the assault on them over the last 100+ years in the world and the American church. I though his observations were balanced and fair, so I heartily recommend this volume to all.

Bryce at his best

Educated, thoughtfully, articulate, comparative Christian approach to Grace. Sola Gratia. Calvinist leaning, Presbyterian instructed, good news.

Worthwhile read

This book is without a doubt a wake-up call for Christians. It aptly reminds Believers of the need to return to a simpler faith demanding our whole being.
