SUMMARY:SCREENING: Letter to the American Church by Eric Metaxas
DESCRIPTION:From New York Times best-selling author Eric Metaxas comes a riveting new film challenging audiences to take a stand\, speak out\, and take action in the face of evil. “Letter to the American Church” is a documentary adaptation of Metaxas latest book of the same name. \nEric guides audiences through the striking similarities between the church in Hitler’s early 1930’s Nazi Germany\, the political regimes of Mao and Stalin\, and modern day America and her church. The historical and present parallels are unavoidable and grim. \nOne man bravely and boldly spoke up in 1933 to warn the German church of the impending doom from the Nazi regime. His name was Dietrich Bonhoeffer. The majority of the church of his time chose not to listen or take action\, therefore Hitler continued his reign of terror\, death\, and destruction. For the last 100 years\, Marxism and communism has continued to evolve and spread throughout nations\, slowly and silently infiltrating America. \nJoin us along with Dr. Erwin Lutzer and other leading voices in a movement that is sounding the alarm to a sleeping American church and God’s people everywhere. Q & A after the movie! \nMetaxas delivers a chilling clarion call to the Body of Christ to be modern day “Bonhoeffers”. If the church does not wake up from her slumber to clearly understand Marxist doctrine\, the tactics that are used to manipulate her into compliance with it\, the national and international leaders and corporations who are promoting it\, and which direction America is headed in\, we will most certainly experience the same fate of previous totalitarian regimes. \nAudiences will see that silence in the face of evil is itself evil. Metaxas and his colleagues agree that this is the hour of the American church. \nHosted by Turning Point Academy \nWHEN: Thursday\, March 14\, 2024 \nWHERE: Trinity International University\n                    2065 Half Day Rd.\n                   Deerfield\, IL 60015 \nTIME: 7 PM – 9 PM \nFor more information: 224-677-9013 \nPLEASE REGISTER HERE. \nOfficial website: https://lettertotheamericanchurch.com \nFor purchasing DVD\, please visit https://lettertotheamericanchurch.myshopify.com. \nFor any screening requests\, please visit the official website for more information.
