We have real hope we ;re called to share. But how we share it makes a difference. Christians today face a dilemma: in a world that seems to reject everything we believe, how do we walk closely with God without caving to pressure or alienating those we hope to reach? In this eye-opening new book, Chris Hodges provides a solution by examining the life of the prophet Daniel, who persevered in a corrupt culture that closely resembles our own ;and emerged as an influential force in God ;s redemptive plan. Full of scripture and seasoned with Hodges ; candid personal insights, The Daniel Dilemma shows us that standing for truth isn ;t about winning the argument; it ;s about winning hearts. And when we learn the secret of connecting before correcting, we discover that we can hold firmly to biblical beliefs without becoming obnoxious, insulting, or mad; stand strong while loving others well; and respond to today ;s hard questions without compromising grace or truth. With fresh insights and practical ideas, Hodges encourages Christians struggling with our cultural reality to hold God ;s standards high and his grace deep ;just as Jesus did, and just as his followers today are called to do.
