"A Time for Confidence has all the hallmarks we have come to expect
from its author: an enviable grasp of history, shrewdness in
analyzing our culture, and a deep sense that God's Word has lost
nothing of its ancient power. Amid what may feel like the shifting
of tectonic plates under Western society, and facing the danger of
discouragement, we want Steve Nichols near at hand to point us to a
safe place to stand. But he does more than that in these pages. Far
from letting us lose heart, he shows us that the gospel gives us
many more reasons for confidence than for despair. A Time for
Confidence is both a tract and a tonic for our times."--Sinclair B.

"Christians are living in one of the most complex times in human
history. Our culture is in the midst of a moral and intellectual
revolution, the pace of which is unprecedented in human history.
The moral reasoning that has stood as the foundation of Western
civilization is being upended, and those who once stood out as
voices of moral clarity are now ostracized as intellectual outlaws
on the wrong side of history. But, as Stephen Nichols makes clear
in this book, this is no time for panic. A Time for Confidence is a
needed reminder that in the midst of the cultural revolution,
Christians can be confident that our sovereign God still reigns
over human history. Indeed, Christians can also be confident that
the church militant will one day be the church triumphant. If you
find yourself wavering in the face of cultural opposition, let this
book spur you on to greater faithfulness and confidence in the
reigning and risen Christ."--R. Albert Mohler Jr.
