Can Christians live without compromise in an increasingly hostile society? And what if they’ve already given in to that society’s vision and values?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIn this revelatory and provocative new book, Mike Cosper answers these questions \u003c\/em\u003eby pointing out the parallels between our world and the story of Esther. A tale of sex, ego, and revenge, the book of Esther reveals a world where God seems absent from everyday life—a world not unlike our own.

Yet when threatened with annihilation, they find the courage to turn to God in humility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA call to spiritual awakening and to faith in an age of malaise and apathy, \u003cem\u003eFaith Among the Faithless\u003c\/em\u003e is an invitation to remember the faithfulness of God, knowing that in dark times—as in the days of Esther or our own—God may be hidden, but he is never absent.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nelson, Thomas, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48048771072240,"sku":"9780718097479","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780718097479_p0.jpg?v=1763625040","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780718097479","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
