Former Special Assistant to President Trump, New York Times bestselling author, and evangelical Christian Cliff Sims shares the lessons he learned on faith, persecution, and politics while working in the halls of power. We are living through a unique moment in American life in which politics has consumed everything. Even some of our churches are tearing themselves apart over political candidates, cultural flashpoints, and debates about whether certain pastors are vessels for the Holy Spirit or an unholy political agenda.
So how should Christians approach our lives in this time of strife and division? How should we respond when we find our beliefs to be more and more at odds with the culture? And how do we keep our focus on eternity when the present attractions of the world are there in front of us at every turn?
As the son of a Baptist minister, Cliff Sims grew up in the church, but while working in the highest levels of American politics, he continuously wrestles with how to live out his faith. As a presidential campaign advisor, a close aide to the President, and the right hand to America's "top spy," Sims experienced firsthand the cutthroat world of power politics, an environment that can test the character of any follower of Jesus.
In this book, Cliff shares lessons on faith and politics, power and persecution, weakness and grace, giving practical advice for how to let the light of Christ shine in our dark world. Recounting stories from inside the highest levels of the government--including about what's inside the President's "Nuclear Football, " top secret bunkers, the West Wing, and Air Force One--Sims offers biblical insight showing that despite the darkness, light has prevailed.
The Darkness Has Not Overcome is a must-read for every Christian who has found themselves exasperated by politics, fearful about the future, or discouraged by the times in which we live.
