Horton is very thought provoking in his analysis of American culture. He encourages the reader to take solace in Christ's work on the cross & the hope we already have in him. He does not encourage Christians to remove themselves from the world. Rather, he encourages them to put their hope in what is yet to come.
don't let the small size fool you (186 pages or so). this contains some awesome nuggets. i'm barely halfway through the book but i already highly recommend it.
