    paperback

    Faith That Lasts

    A Father and Son on Cultivating Lifelong Belief

    by Cameron McAllister and Stuart McAllister
    Foreword by Chris Brooks

    "Please fix my kid." In their work as Christian apologists, father and son Stuart and Cameron McAllister have heard many variations on this theme from concerned parents. It's a sentiment lots of Christian parents can relate to—a deep and fearful sense of their own inadequacy to raise their children in the faith amid a seductive culture that's often hostile to Christianity. In ...

    Living Wisely with the Church Fathers

    by Christopher A. Hall

    The first centuries of Christianity are like a far country. But despite their foreignness, they hold a treasury of wisdom for living. Early Christians struggled and flourished in a culture that was in love with empire and military power, infatuated with sex and entertainment, tolerant of all gods but hostile to the One. And from this crucible of discipleship they extracted lessons of virtue, faithfulness, ...

    Miracle Work

    A Down-to-Earth Guide to Supernatural Ministries

    by Jordan Seng

    We are a supernatural people. Made in the image of God and called to follow a risen Lord through the world God made—we're anything but normal. Given all that, it should not be surprising to us when miraculous things happen in our midst. Still, many of us are intimidated at the thought of it, and we stop short of trying so we won't disappoint God with our lack of faith, or—if we're being honest—so ...

    Witness Essentials

    Evangelism that Makes Disciples

    The Essentials Set

    by Daniel Meyer

    We know the radical difference the gospel of Jesus Christ makes, and we want others to see and enjoy its benefits. In fact, we don't want them to just pray a prayer and move on to the next interesting thing. We want them to sink their roots deeply into the grace of God.

    So often, though, we feel that we are inadequate to this important task--that we don't know enough or that we will offend ...

    Pursuing an Earthy Spirituality

    C. S. Lewis and Incarnational Faith

    by Gary S. Selby

    "Red beef and strong beer" was how C. S. Lewis described his education under one of his early tutors. It was, in other words, a substantial education that engaged deeply with the intellectual tradition and challenged him to grow. Gary Selby sees Lewis's expression as an indication of the kind of transformation that is both possible and necessary for the Christian faith, and he ...

    Judaism Before Jesus

    The Events & Ideas That Shaped the New Testament World

    by Anthony J. Tomasino

    Turning the page from Malachi to Matthew, we skip a lot of history.

    In fact, it is something like missing several key episodes in an ongoing television saga. The setting and main plot line are familiar, but new characters have appeared and more recent events and developments are assumed.

    Did anyone record the episodes we missed?

    Fortunately a few did. Their reception wasn't always ...
