'Jim Twelves has given Christians a book that will provoke their thinking about the issues we face. From AI to euthanasia, from climate change to politics, you will be challenged and encouraged as a disciple of Christ. While equally convinced Christians sometimes come to different conclusions on some of these issues, Jim's book helps us understand the impact of these issues on society, and on the church.' Akos Balogh, Christian Blogger & Editor The Gospel Coalition Australia.

This Wake-up Call for All Christians by Jim Twelves contributor to The Daily Declaration, rings alarm bells and calls for action. Each chapter is introduced by riveting testimonies from seasoned practitioners. Extensive commentary, relevant references and links provide opportunities to explore further. While we might be in despair about the state of our world, here is an opportunity to gain confidence ahead of the inevitable challenges we all face. Our response to this invitation will equip us to believe for breakthrough. Each chapter can be read in isolation, like dipping into a manual, or you can start at the beginning and see how the story unfolds.

While We Were Sleeping has been designed for Christians, church leaders and congregations alike, looking for Christian answers to a wide range of challenging issues. However, while directed to a Christian audience, it is also accessible to anyone anxious about the state of the world and concerned for the future of their children and grandchildren. While each chapter quotes the Holy Bible, it does so to establish common ground, it does not claim to be a theological study.
