World Theology

Ever since Jesus' commission to make disciples in his name, Christianity has transformed lives and the world at large. To those watching, it must have looked like an upstart religion led by a group of men, most of whom were martyred for their beliefs. The voice of secular culture today is no louder and no more indulgent than it was in those days. And yet much of the Western church has settled for becoming just another mass media market that's adding to the noise, instead of a movement that continues to turn the world upside down.

Biblical Worldview is a serious call to shape the next generation's beliefs with the bible. The aim of Biblical Worldview is embracing gospel truth for godly living. This book is a short introduction to biblical worldview and will equip you to help children develop a biblically-based view of life that will transform their homes, communities, and nations.

Like cascading dominoes, the intentional departure from believing the Bible is inerrant has plunged the church of the 21st century down the treacherous slippery slope of accommodation and compromise. How is the emergent church's push for globalization harmonizing with the new world order in these prophetic last days? The author unfolds the shocking progression of ideas that were birthed in a nest of aberrant church beliefs.

LaHaye and Hindson examine ancient Bible prophecies in light of today's news headlines and provide a panoramic survey of the final signs that will serve as God's global warning to the people of all nations. Jesus promised He would someday return to Earth to bring judgment and set up His kingdom. He even reveals specific details about what will happen.

What are those details? What can we expect? Will terrorism, nuclear threats, and the Middle East crisis have a part?

The headlines are clear: Religion is on the decline in America as many people leave behind traditional religious practices. In this follow-up to her critically acclaimed book Christianity After Religion, Diana Butler Bass argues that what appears to be a decline actually signals a major transformation in how people understand God. The distant God of conventional religion has given way to a more intimate sense of the sacred with us in the world.

We all crave love. We try to fill the void inside with any number of poor substitutes. We seek validation from empty outlets. We're thirsty for compliments. We change who we are to impress people who aren't looking and don't care. Yet, we are still desperately searching for a love that changes everything for us, a love that doesn't fade and doesn't fail - even when we do, That's the kind of love God shows that he has for us through the remarkable story of Hosea and Gomer.

We’re not good at living with tension. It’s uncomfortable. It feels unsafe. The moment a friend, spouse, business, or political movement disagrees with us, we flee to the safety of like-minded thinkers, and dehumanize and attack anyone who thinks differently. No one wins. And if someone dares question our particular stance, we demonize them. This is killing us - families, friendships, civility, and discourse. It kills our chance to hear and be heard. We must step out of our bunkers and step into no-man’s-land....

Daniel Day could tell you all about his love for God and his desire to live as a follower of Jesus. But it took a simple but radical experiment to move from simply talking about it to actually living like it. For ten days at a time, Daniel chose to abandon a certain "necessity" - a coat, a voice, shoes, media, furniture, legs, touch - and to blog about it to raise funds and awareness for organizations that are doing amazing things to make a difference in the world.

Author Clemmie Palmer III has authored an easy-to-hear, entertaining book for both the layperson and the seminarian looking for a quick view on some of the major topics covered in seminary and the Bible....

It used to be that Christians conceived of the world as a battleground. They believed in sin and the devil and hell as constituting one force and in God and righteousness and heaven constituting the other. How different it is today. People think of the world not as a battleground but as a playground. In This World: Playground or Battleground?, Tozer calls us to see the real world of the spiritual realm that lies beyond the physical that so ensnares us. The audio is short and to the point, abrupt but full of vigor, profound, and downright relevant today.

¿Por qué existe la dicotomía entre lo que el cristiano profesa cuando está en la iglesia y la manera cómo vive el resto de la semana? Porque en realidad, no es lo que profesamos lo que determina cómo vivimos, sino es la manera en que pensamos lo que determina la manera en que vivimos. La pregunta que surge de inmediato es: «¿Cómo lo hago?», «¿Cómo cambiar lo que pienso y vivir lo que creo?». En Renueva tu mente, el pastor Miguel Núñez explica cómo es posible renovar tu mente y lograr una perspectiva bíblica del mundo y de la vida.

In a world of spiritual options, people constantly tell us what to believe. Yet while we hear these pleas, we're already functioning with existing beliefs—even if they are beliefs by default. So how do we choose what to believe, especially in the area of faith? Do we need to choose? In Choosing Your Faith, Mark Mittelberg encourages us, as Socrates does, not to lead an unexamined life. He invites us to examine why we believe what we believe. This examination will resonate with Christians and seekers alike.

Did you know that the first emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang Di, went mad searching for the elixir of eternal life? Did you know his tomb is connected to the Tower of Babel in the Bible?

Originally written as 13 individual books around 397 CE, Augustine of Hippo's Confessions is one of the most referenced works in the Western literary tradition. Augustine lived from 354-430 CE, and the work is in part an autobiography. But it also tells us much about the period in which he lived. The first nine books draw a compelling narrative of the first 43 years of Augustine's life, which were spent in North Africa and Italy. In the 10th book, Augustine uses these experiences as a meditation on the nature of memory.

In our increasingly secular world, many claim that Christianity is oppressive and toxic. Christians are accused of standing on the wrong side of history, failing to accept human dignity, freedom, and progress. Are these accusations valid? Is Christianity actually causing more harm than good in the world? In this concise booklet, author Sharon James shows that through history and across the globe, true followers of Christ have challenged injustice and abuse, and provided care for the needy.

How did our forebears begin to think about religion as a distinct domain, separate from other activities that were once inseparable from it? Starting at the birth of Christianity - a religion inextricably bound to Western thought - Jack Miles reveals how the West's "common sense" understanding of religion emerged and then changed as insular Europe discovered the rest of the world. Finally, in a moving postscript, he shows how this very story continues today in the minds and hearts of individual religious or irreligious men and women.

The fantasy worlds of some of our favorite books are not as far away from real life as we might think. The spiritual world of the Bible is dense. In the midst of existence is the Trinity, angels, demons, Satan, monsters, giants, supernatural gifts, the afterlife, bodily resurrection, and much more. As we gaze deeper into these biblical glimpses of the hidden world, we begin to reshape both our understanding of our everyday life and the way in which we can and should live out our faith as Christians.

Society has changed faster in the past hundred years than in any other period of human history. This change has profound spiritual implications that most of us are completely unaware of. In a unique way, The Last Believer exposes a conspiracy that starts from the beginning of time to the end of the world. It tells how Satan has slowly but surely groomed society to become what it is today, and how he has prepared it for the leadership of the Antichrist in the future.
