The 2020 COVID pandemic proved to be a watershed for the entire world. Suddenly, it has become much harder to dismiss fears that a worldwide anti-Christian totalitarianism lurks just over the horizon, and western Christians have new questions. How, for instance, are we to respond to government shutdowns of churches, or  live as Christians in a digitized world where governments can follow your every move? And how do Christian parents raise godly children in a world that promotes the grossest forms of immorality to kindergartners? To answer these questions, and more, Vancouver pastor-writer Paul Dirks has just written Deep Discipleship for Dark Days: Holding Fast to What Is Good. You need this book to understand how to survive the coming cataclysm "with your soul secured and your integrity intact." This is the book that will show you how to fight the good fight, keep the faith, and win the prize that God offers at the end (2 Tm 4:7–8). But until Discipleship for Dark Days ships in late October, you can watch an FBB podcast where author Paul Dirks discusses his book's contents. It's time for God's people to become spiritual preppers, and for that nobody can help you more than Paul Dirks.
