    • Questioning Faith : Indirect Journeys Of Belief Through Terrains Of Doubt

      $14.99

      Sort through Your Questions and Find a Path from Doubt to Faith

      Do you have honest questions about faith? Or have you walked away from faith altogether? Perhaps you’ve been part of a faith tradition, but you’ve begun to question parts of what you’ve been taught. Students and young professionals today are submerged in a culture of cynicism and doubt. Many identify as nonreligious but wrestle with questions about God’s existence, the meaning of life, and whether it’s possible to find goodness and beauty in this world.

      After 40 years listening to hundreds of people’s stories of faith, Randy Newman has come to see that answering spiritual questions usually involves a series of twists and turns, not a direct ascent from one belief to another. Our political view, family background, understanding of sexuality, and religious background all play a part in our faith journeys. If you or a friend are navigating terrains of doubt, you’ll find Newman to be a faithful guide. He’ll help you sort through your many questions and find solid answers.

      *Culturally Aware: Touches on matters of morality, identity, suffering, sexuality, and science

      *Accessible: Newman mixes thought-provoking anecdotes with a clear and compelling message about the Christian faith

      *A Tool for Winsome Apologetics: Written to help those who doubt to answer their questions about the Christian faith; will also help Christians strengthen their beliefs and share them with doubting friends

      *Written by Randy Newman: Senior fellow for apologetics and evangelism at the C. S. Lewis Institute

    • Can I Really Trust The Bible

      $7.99

      The Bible makes big claims for itself. But do those claims stand up?

      In this absorbing little book, Barry Cooper explores these questions – and many others – with warmth, wit and integrity.

    • Risen Indeed : A Historical Investigation Into The Resurrection Of Jesus

      $29.99

      A pivotal contribution to the history of apologetics.

      Gary Habermas has spent a career defending the historicity and truthfulness of the resurrection of Jesus. But his earliest writing on Jesus’ resurrection has been unavailable to the broader public, until now.

      In Risen Indeed: A Historical Investigation Into the Resurrection of Jesus, readers will encounter Gary Habermas’ foundational research into the historicity of the resurrection. With a new, extensive, introductory essay on contemporary scholarship regarding the resurrection, Habermas shows how the questions surrounding the historicity of the resurrection and arguments raised by critics are perennially important for Christian faith.

    • Sexual Detox : A Guide For Guys Who Are Sick Of Porn

      $9.99

      Sick of porn? Time to detox. A huge percentage of men need a porn detox, a moral and psychological reset. Do you? If so, whether you know it or not, pornography has corrupted your thinking, weakened your conscience, warped your sense of right and wrong, and twisted your understanding and expectations of sexuality. You need a reset by the One who created sex. In this book, I hope to help you reorient your understanding of sex, both in the big picture and in the act itself, according to God’s plan for this great gift. I want to help you detox from all the junk you’ve seen, all the lies you’ve believed. This is not an easy process. It is rarely a quick process. It involves a letting go of old realities and an embrace of a new normal. To be willing to go through it you need to see how bad your current situation really is, and how the path you are on leads no place good. You need to see that the path of porn leads only to more isolation, guilt, alienation, and pain. Whether single or married, such a reset to normal is the only thing that can ever equip you to become a pure, loving, attentive, sacrificial husband. But you already know you need to change. Few Christian men indulge in porn without realizing they need to quit. Every Christian guy who looks at porn wants to stop, but many of us want to stop just a little bit less than we want to keep going. The problem isn’t knowledge. It’s desire and ability. So sin prevails. Here’s a promise. You’ll never stop until you begin to see the monstrous nature of the sin you’re committing. You’ll never stop until the sin is more horrifying to you than the commission of the sin is enjoyable. You’ll need to hate that sin before you can find freedom from it. That means you need more grace. You need to cry out to be changed and to see the monstrous nature of this sin. And then you need to behave in faith that God will meet you with grace as you act to cut off the porn and begin the reset. -Tim Challies

Michael and Carl take nine of the hardest, such as “Doesn’t Jesus ruin your fun?” “Why is there so much suffering?” and “What does Jesus really think about being gay?” These aren’t questions with easy answers; but, as they show, they are questions that have good answers. Written for people of all backgrounds and beliefs, it’s a book that is short but not simplistic, and clear but not condescending.

      $17.99

    • Deconstruction Of Christianity

      $17.99

      A groundbreaking book on the true nature of faith deconstruction

      Alisa and Tim help the reader to deconstruct the deconstructionists and thus to respond to them, both with arguments and with love and sensitivity. This is a timely book! — Carl Trueman, author of The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self

      A movement called ‘deconstruction’ is sweeping through our churches and it is affecting our loved ones. It has disrupted, dismantled, and destroyed the faith of so many, and this book can help you not only understand what’s happening but also stand your ground and respond with clarity and confidence.

      *Maybe you have a loved one who is deconstructing their faith, and you are struggling to know how to respond;

      *Maybe you are trying to understand the radical spiritual makeover your friend or family member is going through;

      *Maybe your relationship with a loved one has been strained or even cut off because of your “toxic” Christian beliefs and you don’t know what to do;

      *Maybe you’re experiencing doubt yourself and facing hard questions about truth, God, the Bible, theology and the gospel.

      Some who leave the faith feel wounded by the church. Others feel repressed by some of the moral imperatives found in Scripture. For some, it leads to a custom-made spirituality. For others, deconstructing their faith leads them away from the truth into agnosticism, atheism, the occult, or humanism.

      In this seminal book, Alisa Childers, author of Another Gospel?, and Tim Barnett, creator of Red Pen Logic, will help you understand what deconstruction is, where it comes from, why it is compelling to some, and how it disorients the lives of so many. You will be able to think through the main issues around faith deconstruction and explore wise and loving ways to respond from a biblical worldview.

    • What If Its All True

      $14.99

      What if it’s all true? What if the Bible truly is the words of God written down by the hands of men? What if Jesus was more than just a good teacher but actually the Son of God – what might that mean to you and me personally?

      Jesus claimed, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life (John 8:12).” Is it possible that we may not yet fully appreciate all that Jesus offers us? Could we have been so focused on the busyness of life that we miss that which is of greatest importance?

      In this short, accessible book, Rick Beckwith who has served with Young Life for more than 40 years, explores this question by investigating the Person and promises of Jesus.

      He answers questions like:

      *Who is Jesus?
      *What is truth and where is it found?
      *What is our purpose in life?
      *What did Jesus promise those who follow him?
      *Do painful experiences nullify what is true?
      *What if Jesus really did rise from the dead – so what?
      *What is the cost of ignoring Jesus’s true identity?

      In a culture that views absolute truth as a fixture of the past, it is necessary to have a deeper explanation of the hope available to us in Jesus. If this explanation is indeed plausible and the Bible is true, then the implications for how we live are nothing short of profound!

    • Ex Muslims Guide To Christianity

      $15.99

      Packed with compassionate wisdom, practical action steps, and easy-to-understand explanations, this guide for ex-Muslims following Jesus and Christianity is a life-changing tool.

      If you’ve left Islam for a new life in Christ, this guide will help you thrive amidst challenges, avoid common pitfalls, learn how to respond to family, and so much more. Learn to:

      *Distinguish between God’s voice and Allah’s voice (and how to follow the Holy Spirit)
      *Switch from a works-based lifestyle to joyful salvation and freedom
      *Reap amazing benefits from Christian disciplines (prayer, worship, charity, etc.)
      *Refresh & nourish yourself using Christian disciplines (prayer, worship, charity, etc.)
      *And more!

      Who is The Ex-Muslim’s Guide to Christianity for?

      Ostracized. Alone. Disoriented. You’ve left your family, community, and everything you’ve known behind. You may have found a loving church community, but no one really understands what it’s been like. It feels like there are disconnects between what you know about faith and how your fellow Christians seem to understand God. Perhaps other churchgoers speak of a closeness with the Holy Spirit that you can’t seem to connect with. You’re not alone… and the blocks between your Muslim-based thought patterns and Christian theology are very real.

      The goal of this book is to help ex-Muslim Christians navigate their faith by recognizing and correcting common misunderstandings imported from an Islamic worldview. Kenza Haddock knows the unique challenges faced by ex-Muslims and emphasizes that relating to God as our Heavenly Father is key to understanding:

      *God’s voice vs. “Allah’s voice”
      *Prayer vs. ritual
      *Our identity in Christ
      *How to stand firm in the face of persecution
      *What the afterlife looks like for a Christian

      The Ex-Muslim’s Guide to Christianity Answers Common Questions

      The Ex-Muslim’s Guide to Christianity addresses the most common questions ex-Muslims wrestle with (and may be afraid to ask) as they begin to follow Christ:

      *How is Jesus different from Mohammed?
      *How is God’s character different from Allah’s?
      *How do I walk in step with the Holy Spirit?
      *How do I deal with relatives who constantly persecute me for my Christian faith?

      There are dozens of books for evangelism and missionary work, but The Ex-Muslim’s Guide to Christianity speaks straight to ex-Muslims with experienced understanding, deep compassion, and life-saving truths.

    • Straight To The Heart

      $17.99

      Our approach to apologetics needs to change when the very idea of “truth” is controversial. But as authors Daniel Blackaby and Mike Blackaby teach us, we can still reach people if we understand what they value most.

      This practical guide to our current landscape explores five effective communication pathways:

      *Story: As people wired for narrative, we can speak through the stories we live and tell.

      *Beauty: In an increasingly industrialized world, we can point people to “pockets of beauty” that reveal the attractiveness of God.

      *Art: In a society that celebrates the arts, we can cultivate creativity in the church, then send artists out as cultural missionaries.

      *Desire: To a people motivated by love, identity, and purpose, we can show how Jesus is the perfect fulfillment of our deepest longings.

      *Community: As relational creatures where connectivity is disappearing, we can offer a community of unified diversity.

      Culture may be in flux, but God’s Word remains true. Straight to the Heart helps us speak to the passions that drive our culture without compromising the life-changing truth of the gospel.

    • Practical Religion : Essential Biblical Truths For Daily Christian Living

      $24.99

      Practical Religion, by J. C. Ryle (1816-1900), was first published in 1878 and is renowned as a theological and apologetic Christian “classic”-esteemed for its clear, profound and penetrating narrative on the practice of genuine Christian living. Within its pages, Ryle masterfully unfolds practical biblical truths in a series of treatises, or “papers” as he calls them, each written to address a critical aspect of where personal faith in Christ and the practice of that faith in holy living unite and are essential for Christian growth and effective discipleship.

      Ryle exposes hypocrisy and nominalism in religion, or “Churchianity” as he calls it, which was as systemic in his day as it is today. His poignant narrative appeals to the evangelical Church as well as to individuals who profess to be Christians-a call to self-examination in all things, and a return to sound Biblical truths seriously and practically applied in every aspect of life.

      Ryle’s powerful, engaging style penetrates the heart and challenges the mind of its readers and is not for the faint of heart. Ryle’s design is to stir the hearts and minds of those who genuinely and humbly seek a deeper abiding, surrendered life in Christ. No wonder his equally renowned contemporary English minister, Charles Spurgeon, considered Ryle “An evangelical champion. One of the bravest and best of men.” J.I. Packer calls Practical Religion, “The manual for the practice of Christianity.”

      J. C. (John Charles) Ryle was the first Bishop of Liverpool, England, and one of the most influential evangelical ministers and writers of the nineteenth century. He was renowned for his rare ability to bring the riches of Biblical truth, plainly and powerfully, to the hearts of his hearers and readers.

      Practical Religion will enrich the believer’s walk with Christ and provide the Church with much needed insight for preaching and living genuine Christianity, now and in every generation!

    • How To Know God Exists

      $15.99

      with simple logic and common sense. If there is a God, surely He has made His presence known so that anyone, young or old, scholar or schoolchild, can find Him. By applying basic logic to three clear evidences for the existence of God, Comfort will help you to:
      *Examine the case for evolution and see what top scientists are really saying about the theory
      *Explore the facts that led the world’s most notorious atheist to acknowledge a Creator

    • Why Im Still A Christian

      $18.99

      A compelling and intriguing discussion of why believing in God makes the most sense of human existence and our purpose on earth by one of the most respected Christian thinkers of our time.

      “Highly readable survey of the reasons for Christian faith. Not just an academic exercise, Justin has respectfully engaged many thoughtful atheists and sceptics over years, which is always a test for a believer. The book is therefore very personal–it explains how his own faith has emerged while working through the challenges he has received.” — Timothy Keller

      Popular radio host and podcaster, Justin Brierley, has been creating and facilitating constructive conversations about faith for more than two decades. He is an expert in Christian apologetics and has had a ringside seat as believers and nonbelievers alike have debated Christianity. Surprisingly, Justin has come out on the other side of these debates more convinced than ever of the truth of Jesus’ claims–and the power of good conversations.

      With this book, you get to watch Justin as he engages with the most unlikely of conversation partners–from Richard Dawkins to Philip Pullman–on the subject of faith. You’ll understand why Justin, after hearing the strongest objections to the Christian faith and religion, is still a Christian. For him, God makes sense of human existence, the inherent value of human life, and our ultimate purpose on earth.

      With this book, you’ll explore tough questions, with Justin Brierley as your guide:

      *Why would God allow suffering?
      *Are Christianity and the existence of God compatible with science?
      *Is there any evidence for the resurrection?
      *And much more.

    • Never Ashamed : Stories Of Sharing Faith With Scoffers And Skeptics

      $14.99

      Most books on evangelism deal primarily with different approaches to sharing the good news. From street ministry to personal witnessing, books abound on how to present the gospel in a variety of ways and situations.

      But Never Ashamed isn’t a book about how. Rather, it’s a book about why. Author Avi Snyder explains:

      *Why we mustn’t be ashamed of sharing the good news in an open and direct fashion.

      *Why believers find it difficult to share the good news of salvation, despite the variety of fruit that always abounds.

      *Why non-believers often choose to walk away from the claims of the Messiah, even when they know or at least suspect in their hearts that His claims are true.

      *Why the early church felt compelled to proclaim His message, regardless of the risks and costs.

      More than this, however, Never Ashamed is a book of stories:

      *The man who told Avi he wouldn’t stop him from jumping out a window.

      *The Marxist lady trying to figure him out who eventually concluded he was a provocateur

      *The woman who prayed for God to give her compassion like Him and wept when she received it

      *The Soviet guard who helped Avi’s team pass out literature

      These and many more encounters that Avi shares will make you laugh, cry, and be filled with joy at the winsome ways in which he brings people to Jesus.

    • How To Know God Exists

      $17.99

      Three questions are etched into everyone’s subconscious: Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? Josh McDowell and Thomas Williams team up to show why nothing short of God answers these questions. But the problem is that in today’s secularized culture, God has largely been banished.

      How to Know God Exists explores in depth solid reasons for believing in God and restoring him to his rightful place in our lives. Josh McDowell is widely known for his powerful defenses of God based on historical and biblical evidences. In this book he and Thomas take a new direction and present often-unexplored but formidable evidences based on sheer reason, observable reality, and solid science. They show that belief in God is not the blind, unthinking, and intellectually indefensible fancy today’s secularism makes it out to be.

      How to Know God Exists will:

      *Offer rational defenses for the existence of God, truth, morality, meaning, and reason

      *Open vistas of beauty and joy denied to readers by the sterility of secularism

      *Use reason, logic, experience, and common sense to show that God offers the truth required to make sense of reality and bring meaning and joy to life

      By reason and common sense, How to Know God Exists shows that meaning itself is rooted in the existence of God.

    • When Culture Hates You

      $18.99

      Jesus Warned the World Would Hate Christians

      “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you” (John 15:18).

      As cultural hostility toward Christianity intensifies, many Christians have grown more reluctant to advocate for biblical values in the public square. But our perseverance for the common good–a good defined by God alone–is more important than ever in a culture that embraces darkness.

      When Culture Hates You is a call for Christians to unashamedly pursue righteousness in society out of our love for others. In this timely resource, author Natasha Crain will help you:

      *make sense of cultural hostility by better understanding the roots of secular outrage on issues like Christian nationalism, social justice, abortion, transgenderism, and sexuality

      *advocate for the godly functioning of society with greater biblical, cultural, and civic understanding

      *take concrete action for the common good with more than 35 practical ideas to get you started

      As Christians, our calling is to speak truth in the face of hostility. Not because we want to “war” with culture but because we love both God and others.

    • Natures Case For God

      $11.99

      Can we know anything about God apart from the Bible?

      Many Protestant Christians are suspicious of natural theology, which claims that we can learn about God through revelation outside the Bible. How can we know anything about God apart from Scripture? In Nature’s Case for God, distinguished theologian John Frame argues that Christians are not forbidden from seeking to learn about God from his creation. In fact, the Bible itself shows this to be possible.

      In nine short and lucid chapters that include questions for discussion, Frame shows us what we can learn about God and how we relate to him from the world outside the Bible. If the heavens really do declare the glory of God, as the psalmist claims, it makes a huge difference for how we understand God and how we introduce him to those who don’t yet know Christ.

    • Coming To Faith Through Dawkins

      $21.99

      Richard Dawkins = Christian evangelist?

      Editors Denis Alexander and Alister McGrath gather other intelligent minds from around the world to share their startling commonality: Richard Dawkins and his fellow New Atheists were instrumental in their conversions to Christianity.

      Despite a wide range of backgrounds and cultures, all are united in the fact that they were first enthusiasts for the claims and writings of the New Atheists. But each became disillusioned by the arguments and conclusions of Dawkins, causing them to look deeper and with more objectivity at religious faith. The fallacies of Christianity Dawkins warns of simply don’t exist.

      Spending time in this fascinating and powerful book is like being invited to the most interesting dinner party you’ve ever attended. Listen as twelve men and women from five different countries across a variety of professions–philosophers, artists, historians, engineers, scientists, and more–explain their journeys from atheism to faith. In the end, you may come away having reached the same conclusion: authentic Christian faith is in fact more intellectually convincing and rational than New Atheism.

      $14.99

      If you think atheists have reason, evidence, and science on their side, think again! Award-winning author Dr. Frank Turek (I Don’t Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist) will show you how atheists steal reason, evidence, science, and other arguments from God in trying to make their case for atheism. If that sounds contradictory, it’s because it is! Atheists can’t make their case without appealing to realities only theism can explain. In an engaging and memorable way, Stealing from God exposes these intellectual crimes atheists are committing and then provides four powerful reasons for why Christianity is true.

    • Faith Is For Weak People

      $16.99

      Every day that we interact with the world, we are in a battle. At stake is the eternal destiny of the souls of our friends, family members, and coworkers. It is a battle we wage not only in prayer but also in words. When we are faced with objections to the faith we profess, are we ready to respond?

      Apologist and evangelist Ray Comfort has spent his entire career answering objections to the faith, and he wants you to be equipped to do the same. In this practical book, he shows you how to answer 20 objections to Christianity, including questions such as
      – What physical proof is there that God even exists?
      – Why does a “loving” God threaten eternal torture for not believing in him?
      – If there’s an all-powerful God, why is the world so out of control?

      Don’t go into battle unarmed. Let Ray Comfort train you to be ready with an answer, not so you can be right, but so you can help bring people from darkness into light.

      $17.99

      He had science and an Ivy League pedigree-why did he need God? Immersed in his physics studies at Cornell, Tom Rudelius never thought much about God until his brother, a new convert to Christianity, challenged him to explore faith. To placate his twin, he reluctantly began exploring the Bible and the life of Jesus. Seeking proof of God’s existence, he found himself in a world of uncertainty, faced with plenty of reasons for both faith and doubt.

      In Chasing Proof, Finding Faith, Tom, now a rising young theoretical physicist, traces his journey to unexpected faith, through subsequent doubt and anxiety, and ultimately to a firmer, life-transforming allegiance to Jesus. Along the way, he explores some of the issues he wrestled with, including:

      *Creation and cosmic origins
      *The problem of evil and suffering
      *The compatibility of miracles with science and the plausibility of Jesus’ resurrection
      *The reliability of the Bible

      While Tom never found absolute proof of God or Christianity, he ultimately concluded that the existing evidence for both is compelling and compatible with science. His searingly honest story is a potent guide for those doubting or exploring faith.

    • Against Worldview : Reimagining Christian Formation As Growth In Wisdom

      $18.99

      Reframing the lenses of Christian worldview

      *Recognize the limits and failures of Christian worldview education
      *Consider a more organic approach to Christian learning and education
      *Understand the value of wisdom over rigid frameworks

      In Against Worldview: Reimagining Christian Formation as Growth in Wisdom, Simon P. Kennedy challenges the conventions of Christian worldview education and provides a better way.

      Although the current concept of Christian worldview appears incontestable, it rests upon shaky philosophical foundations, fails to account for the complexities of how we interact with the world, and may even undermine the curiosity essential for true learning. But rather than shattering the lenses of Christian worldview, Kennedy reframes worldview around wisdom.

      A biblical worldview is not downloaded all at once. It is cultivated piece by piece, as we learn about God, his world, and ourselves. Christian education is an organic process of learning to wisely nurture a biblical worldview.

    • Bulwarks Of Unbelief

      $32.99

      How modernity creates atheists–and what the church must do about it.

      Millions of people in the West identify as atheists. Christians often respond to this reality with proofs of God’s existence, as though rational arguments for atheism were the root cause of unbelief. In Bulwarks of Unbelief, Joseph Minich argues that a felt absence of God, as experienced by the modern individual, offers a better explanation for the rise in atheism. Recent technological and cultural shifts in the modern West have produced a perceived challenge to God’s existence. As modern technoculture reshapes our awareness of reality and belief in the invisible, it in turn amplifies God’s apparent silence. In this new context, atheism is a natural result. And absent of meaning from without, we have turned within.

      Christians cannot escape this aspect of modern life. Minich argues that we must consciously and actively return to reality. If we reattune ourselves to God’s story, reintegrate the whole person, and reinhabit the world, faith can thrive in this age of unbelief.
