As Christian faith moves to the margins and public life drifts from biblical values, discover how prayer can ground holy living, courageous intercession, and wise engagement in a culture captive to sex, idolatry, and greed.

In a world that shrugs at sin and mocks holiness, Prayerful Living in a Post-Christian Culture calls believers to begin not with outrage or retreat, but prayer that steadies the heart and calls for God's help before we speak, vote, post, or protest.

Leonard R. Payton writes with pastoral warmth and prophetic clarity, showing how ordinary believers can practice prayer that shapes hearts, households, and history.

Drawing richly from Scripture, he exposes the modern idols of sexual autonomy, consumer success, and self-defined identity, then shows how worship, repentance, and intercession reshape our desires and our daily habits. Prayer is not an escape from public responsibility--it is the fire in which courage, clarity, and compassion are forged.

Inside, you'll find:

A practical vision of what it means to be a member of the "royal priesthood" through faith in Christ
Honest dialogue about sexual confusion, greed, and power without surrendering biblical conviction
Guidance for cultivating a praying home, church, and congregation
Help for navigating politics, cultural pressure, and "outrage fatigue" without losing spiritual focus
Examples of specific, Scripture-shaped prayers for our times

This is a field manual for Christians who long to be steady, hopeful, and prayerful in the midst of cultural turmoil--and who believe God still works through kneeling saints in a restless world.
