Theology

When trying to make good choices, how do we know what is best? Historically, Christians have emphasized five different ways of making ethical decisions. Gordon explains the strengths and weaknesses of each.

From the Foreword by J. Warner Wallace: “A book written by a man who has genuinely struggled with the questions, wrestled with doubts, and emerged faithful on the other side. He understands you.” Does Christianity still make sense? Years after Bobby Conway became a Christian, this question haunted him. Even though by then, he was the pastor of a thriving church, it seemed as if his entire belief structure was being dismantled. Had he been duped? Perhaps you can relate to how Bobby felt. Maybe you find yourself questioning in the same way.

Begun five years after he entered the Abbey of Our Lady of Gethsemani, The Sign of Jonas is an extraordinary view of Merton's life in a Trappist monastery, and it serves also as a spiritual log recording the deep meaning and increasing sureness he felt in his vocation: the growth of a mind that finds in its contracted physical world new intellectual and spiritual dimensions.

Muslims around the world are having dreams about Jesus. “The Man in the white robe” has been appearing to many, calling them into his kingdom. At age 23, Kenza Haddock was one person whose powerful dream encounter led her to leave Islam and follow Jesus. Years later, as a seasoned Christian, Haddock has written the resource she desperately searched for as a new believer.

What happens to us after we die? For the first 500 years after Christ, most Christians believed that God would ultimately redeem all of his creation. Hell was real, but it didn't last forever. Its purpose was to restore, not just to punish. Then beliefs changed. For the past 1,500 years we’ve been told that most of the billions of people who have lived on this earth will remain separated from the love and mercy of God for all eternity.

The Westminster Standards (The Westminster Confession and accompanying Shorter and Larger Catechisms) are the high-water mark of the Historic Christian Faith since they build upon the preceding councils and creeds of the Church while responding to the challenges of the Reformation. A thoughtful study of the Standards requires penetrating the material at the level of challenges and responses to the Faith.

In Finding Jesus, author Herb Montgomery delves into the profound and often overlooked political dimensions of the gospels. Through meticulous analysis of biblical texts, historical context, and social discourse, this thought-provoking book unveils the gospels’ socio-political, economic teachings as rooted in a profound concern for justice, compassion, and the well-being of the marginalized. The book navigates the intersections between faith and societal justice, presenting a compelling argument for a more socially engaged and transformative Christianity.

When we reflect on how we lived for Christ, we might weep on the other side of the celestial gates. To their own detriment, many Christians have emptied the judgment seat of Christ of its meaning, living like they will never meet His knowing gaze. For this they may have tears in heaven. In this provocative book, Dr. Erwin Lutzer argues that remorse in heaven awaits those who don't live fully for God on earth.

As the enemy wages war against the Lord's army and the world hurls toward the Second Coming of Christ, God has a unique Kingdom deployment for each of us.

Sr. Fran Gangloff tells the inspiring story of a woman committed to serving those in the leper settlement in Hawaii with love, compassion, respect, and grace, often in the face of both hardship and resistance from authorities blind to their needs. At her canonization in 2012, St. Marianne was called the “beloved mother of outcasts.”

This collection of essays, which answer and refer to debates, questions, and criticisms on the subject, is a rigorous and worthy study of one of the fundamentals of Christianity.

God’s work with the human race in time and space has been, and continues to be, a series of new beginnings. At every point, the Trinity is central, for God’s relationship to his Son and his Spirit stands behind everything about his relationship to us. Starting from before time began, Donald Fairbairn leads us through these beginnings, shedding fresh light on the Trinity at each stage. He offers clues and questions along the way, inviting us to join in the discovery process.

With its engaging style and thought-provoking approach, Believable promises to redefine listeners' understanding of God and the true meaning of hope.

The Bible has many mysteries but the greatest mystery is rarely discussed. This in itself is a great mystery! Recently a renowned Prophecy speaker announced that he was beginning a program on Bible Mysteries. His list did not include Chapter 12 of the book of Revelation which contains at least 5 major mysteries. Revelation is the Key Prophetic book given to us by Jesus Christ himself concerning His Return. It is the only book that promises a Blessing to anyone who reads it, hears it, or understands it.

A primer for Afrodiasporan theology. There is no way for one book to contain all that there is to know about the theologies of the peoples of the African Diaspora. UBUNTU and the Word is an African Diasporan quest for the truth, not just any, but the scriptural and spiritual truth for people who have been oppressed, marginalized, and disenfranchised. The biblical truth is not derived from stiff-necked doctrine or dogmatic orthodoxy.
