The Next Christians by Gabe Lyons

Gabe Lyons The Next Christians: Seven Ways You Can Live the Gospel and Restore the World (Multnomah, 2012)

Gabe Lyons is optimistic that Christianity’s best days are yet to come. His best-selling book, UnChristian, revealed the pervasiveness of culture’s growing disregard for Christians.

Now, in The Next Christians: Seven Ways You Can Live the Gospel and Restore the World, Lyons shows how a new wave of believers are turning the tide by bringing the truth of the Gospel to bear on our changing, secular society.

“Restorers,” as Lyons calls them, approach culture with a different mentality than generations past. Informed by truth, yet seasoned with grace and love, these believers engage the world by drawing it to the sensibility and authenticity of the Christian life You can be one of these “next” Christians and change the negative perception of Christianity by living a life that is faithful to the Gospel, yet credible and coherent to your friends and neighbors. Find out if you are a “Restorer” by reading the book and engaging the conversation. The balance of the work describes how one may become a “Restorer.”

Restorers are
  1. “Provoked, not Offended,”
  2. “Creators, not Critics,”
  3. “Grounded, not Distracted,”
  4. “In Community, not Alone,”
  5. “Civil, not Divisive” and
  6. “Countercultural, not Relevant.”
