The Bible is explicit: We live in a world of distinct opponents; our very lives are a battle. Yet too many Christians lose more battles than they win and endure their walk with God rather than enjoy it because they don't recognize the enemy when they see it. More importantly, they have no idea how to respond. While society tells us we can react simply, the truth is that a wish, a hope, and a prayer are not the best responses to attacks from those who stand between us and the Father.

I now send forth this volume with an earnest prayer that God will pardon all its imperfections, use it for His own glory, and raise up in His church today men like those who are here described.

Parenting isn't rocket science, it's just brain surgery. And Dr. Joshua Straub has good news for you: You can do it! You don’t need to do all the “right” things as a parent. Both science and the Bible show us that the most important thing we can provide for our kids is a place of emotional safety. In other words, the posture from which we parent matters infinitely more than the techniques of parenting. Emotional safety—more than any other factor—is scientifically linked to raising kids who live, love, and lead well.

Many American churches have lost their way, but the path back to true Christianity is clear. When did worship become entertainment? When did biblical truth take a backseat to social activism? When did comfort replace the call to discipleship? These are the major crises facing Christianity today. Churchianity cuts through the confusion to expose how modern churches have traded authentic faith for "Churchianity"—a watered-down substitute that prioritizes feelings over truth, crowds over Christ, and cultural approval over spiritual transformation.
