[Nathan Bozeman · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book contains many wonderful contributions and contributors. I'd recommend this book to anyone wanting to know how to reach our ever-changing, relativistic, sexually promiscuous (and otherwise), and tone-sensitive culture.

[Hudson Rowland · Rating 2 out of 5]

Received as a Christmas gift. Was hoping this would be a little more understanding of culture given the title of the book. Felt fairly out-of-touch with a very insular target audience.

[Kalyn · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a must read for any Christian especially those wanting to get into apologetics. It hits multiple areas of apologetics through different contributors in a way that is easy to understand. This book is also thought provoking as it dives into the different areas. It gave me pause on if I’d had done something similar or I’ve never thought of that before. Do yourself or a loved one a favor and get this book.
