Radical shifts in the areas of sexuality, ethics, technology, secular ideologies, and religion have caused the once-familiar landscape of a generation ago to be virtually unrecognizable. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eYet rather than shine as a beacon of light, the church often is silent or accommodating. This isn't a new phenomenon. During World War II, pastor and theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer was deeply troubled by the compromise in the German church. Their capitulation to the Nazi party brought shame and dishonor to the gospel. In response, he helped create an underground movement of churches that trained disciples and ultimately sought to renew the church and culture of the day. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn our compromised church, we need new underground movements of discipleship and resistance. Widely respected New York pastor Jon Tyson unveils a revived vision for faithful discipleship--one that dares to renew culture, restore credibility, and replace compromise with conviction. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor all who have felt this conflict in the soul between who we are and who God calls us to be, \u003ci\u003eBeautiful Resistance \u003c\/i\u003eis a bold invitation to reclaim what's been lost--regardless of the cost. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eBeautiful Resistance\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eBeautiful Resistance\u003c\/i\u003e is one of the most compelling and defiant books I've read in a long time. I love Jon's radical, no-messing vision of the church as a prophetic community. This is a wake-up call for us all from the heart of a man who lives his message, loves his city, and serves his Lord with a passion and intelligence destined to become less rare.\"\u003cb\u003e--Pete Greig, founder of the 24-7 Prayer movement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJon Tyson\u003c\/b\u003e is a pastor and church planter in New York City.
