In Green Like God, Jonathan Merritt gently and insightfully observes that the Creator has a lot to say about environmental problems like unclean water, mindless materialism, wastefulness, over consumption, and pollution. In fact, Jonathan writes that "in the book of Genesis, God went green and never looked back." Relying heavily on the Scriptures, Jonathan gives the case for green living, but not because it's trendy and hip.

Just Thinking About Ethnicity (JTAE), is a biblical response to the issues of "race" and social justice. JTAE is a culturally-relevant, theologically-rich exploration into what the Word of God says about such issues and how the evangelical church should respond to the unbiblical narratives associated with them. Given that every believer in Christ is an apologist (1 Pet. 3:15), JTAE is a valuable addition to your repository of apologetics resources.

Secular models of peacemaking are insufficient. And the church has not always fulfilled its call to be agents of reconciliation in the world. In Reconciling All Things, Emmanuel Katongole and Chris Rice cast a comprehensive vision for reconciliation that is biblical, transformative, holistic, and global. They draw on the resources of the Christian story, including their own individual experiences in Uganda and Mississippi, to bring solid, theological reflection to bear on the work of reconciling individuals, groups, and societies.

In this book psychologist Kelly Flannagan shows how each of us has within ourselves, exactly the way we are, the gifts that are needed to cultivate the life-long relationship we are longing for, whether it is within marriage or friendship.

In the Catholic tradition, moral sexual activity is institutionalized within the confines of marriage and procreation, and sexual morality is marital morality. But theologians Todd Salzman and Michael Lawler contend that there is a disconnect between many of the Church's absolute sexual norms and other theological and intellectual developments explicitly recognized and endorsed in the Catholic tradition, especially since the Second Vatican Council.

Digital innovation has rapidly changed the landscape of sexual experience in the 21st century. Rules-based sexual ethics, subscribed to by many Christians, are unable to keep up with new developments and, more often than not, seem effective at little other than generating shame.

The African-American community represents a paradox of sorts. While collective success has been achieved in many areas, African-Americans still disproportionately suffer from a variety of social ills. The residual impact of years of slavery and exclusion from the major institutions of American life are still trenchant. Yet there is hope. As we move forward into a new millennium, our greatest answers can be found by exploring the past.

Schonfield under the pseudonym of "Hegesippus"First published in 1932, this little book caused a sensation and stir amongst conservative Christians yet its explanation of the famous so-called Sermon on the Mount still blows like a breath of fresh air today!

The imagery of a fly in the ointment, or perfume, serves as a powerful metaphor for the defilements of the heart. This vivid picture, drawn from Ecclesiastes 10:1, states, “Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savor: so doth a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honour.” The heart, much like the ointment, is created by God to exude purity and fragrance through the righteousness and character of Christ. However, even a small defilement, like a dead fly, can spoil the fragrance, leading to spiritual corruption and damage. Defilements ...

Spiritual Authority is not a topic of most sermons and generally absent from any discussion of Christian life, and yet it is essential in many ways to the challenges facing the Christian in the 21st century. In this excerpt from his book, "Solid Ground", Mr. Clay explores 1) how authority works for the church, home, and world, 2) how these spheres differ, and 3) how the Christian should interact with them - particularly when they are wrong. If you have ever wrestled with obeying authority in your life, this is a title that will help you understand what God would have you do.

Rarely are human dilemmas out of the news. And what medical science can do and ought to do—or ought not to do—impinges on our personal lives, families and societies. John Wyatt examines the issues surrounding the beginning and end of life against the background of current medical-ethical thought. Writing out of a deep conviction that the Bible's view of our humanness points a way forward, he suggests how Christian healthcare professionals, churches and individuals can respond to today's challenges and opportunities.

In this audiobook, we are going to carefully examine every main verse on “fornication” or “sexual immorality” in the New Testament. The Bible gives a lot of instruction against sexual sin and how to avoid it or repent of it. We start with the Lord Jesus Christ, the one who is the truth. Jesus said that fornication—sex between boyfriend and girlfriend—is evil, and it defiles people. He exposes the root of the sin and shows its damaging effect on anyone who engages in it.

Throughout history, many people have rejected God because they wanted to act immorally - why does it seem like those walking away from God today believe God is the immoral one? There are so many competing visions of morality. One's culture, background, political affiliation, and religious beliefs (or lack thereof) have profound impacts on our moral thought. What one person says is right another says is wrong, and vice versa, leading to much debate and confusion.

En el siglo veinte, el evangelio de Jesucristo y los ideales utópicos marxistas se enfrentaron. Hoy, estas ideas se funden en un nuevo y confuso sistema de creencias. Esa mezcla orienta a la sociedad hacia una mentalidad mafiosa y deconstruye a la iglesia. Debemos oponernos a este falso evangelio y proteger las verdaderas enseñanzas de Jesucristo.
