First he considers moments in history - Periclean Athens, the English Civil War, the American and French Revolutions, among them - in which the challenges we face today were first encountered and what solutions, however imperfect, were found.

And then whispered to them in a language older than words, "Follow me."

As a former pastor, Richard Christenson has had the opportunity to address numerous congregations and men's ministry groups throughout the Northwestern United States, and his observations from these experiences are alarming.

This book provides a much-needed antidote.
