by: Ajith Fernando Christian today often feels without a voice: a minority in an indifferent world. Should we withdraw? Get stuck in, despite blurred boundaries? Like the Israelites in Babylon , for many of us this a time of temptation and defeat. Ajith Fernando’s warm, engaging book uses the experience of the young Israelite, Daniel and his companions were the elite: young men of outstanding ability. God put them in a position where their names – their very identity – were changed to fit Babylonian culture. They learned pagan languages and became steeped in Babylonian society. ” What could be more important that a call to dynamic living in a dying world? Timely, prophetic, and urgent. Read it for world’s sake, for the churches’s sake, for your sake. Read it, and live it- for God’s sake. – Jeff Lucas, Vice President, Evangelical Alliance UK
