One of Chip's Top Ten (wordsntone.com)

This book put my faith under judgment: does my faith lead to transforming the culture that surrounds me, or does it add to the culture's corruption? Guinness pinned me against the wall of my self-centeredness and privatized faith and challenged me on how well my faith interacts, reacts, and enlightens my time, my moment in history-and how well my faith is open to God's work of revival and renewal.
