by Alice Fryling
Why should we wait for sex? How can we wait? And what if it's already too late? We believe what we want to, whether or not it is true.

"The epistle of 2 Peter has had a very rough passage down the centuries," says Michael Green in this commentary. "Its entry into the Canon was precarious in the extreme . . . It was deemed second-class Scripture by Luther, rejected Erasmus, and regarded with hesitancy by Calvin."

Mental Illness and the Church's Mission
by Amy Simpson
Foreword by Marshall ShelleyChristianity Today Book Award Winner
Leadership Journal Book AwardMental illness is the sort of thing we don't like to talk about. It doesn't reduce nicely to simple solutions and happy outcomes.
