Kingsley Press is pleased to announce the immediate availability of its latest classic reprint: In Times Like These by Vance Havner–America’s most-quoted preacher.
Here is a key to Christian conduct and belief in times like these—times when we are seeing the disintegration of the church and of moral standards, the destruction of America, the dynamics of “trendism,” and the dangers of departed power. Sounds so 2016 doesn’t it! Yet this powerful book was written way back in 1969!
Vance Havner issues a call to Christians, clear and loud, for real repentance, for confession and forsaking of sin, for separation from the world, for submission to the Lordship of Christ, and the filling of the Holy Spirit. His challenging summons is for daring, fearless prophets who will call the nation to repentance and for church members who will stand up and be counted with Jesus Christ. Then and only then will there be any use for missions, stewardship programs, or social involvement. This fiery admonition concludes with a concise statement of what one can believe in times like these and of the author’s own unequivocable belief in the Bible as the Word of God. “It is the strategy of the devil to keep good people silent in an evil time,” Havner writes, adding this caution: “There is no neutrality here. The church member who fails to take his place in the battle, by his very absence has taken sides with the enemy as surely as if he were openly with the army of Antichrist.”
A few sample quotations from this book:
“What time is it? It is time for holy desperation because it is too late for everything else.”
“We are not just broad-minded these days, we are broadway-minded!”
“We lie to God in prayer if we do not rely on God after prayer.”
“It is the strategy of the devil to keep good people silent in an evil time.”
