As the Church has become increasingly entangled in the pursuit of politics, the Gospel has become tarnished and often abandoned as the primary focus of the Body of Christ. Jesus Untangled is a prophetic call for the Church to awaken from the "American Dream" and to return to her first love. Because, as the author powerfully demonstrates, you can't convert a culture that has already converted you.

Wisdom Begins with the Fear of God Sir Matthew Hale (1609–1676) was one of the most respected jurists of seventeenth-century England, known for his integrity, legal scholarship, and deep Christian faith. A man of both intellect and piety, Hale believed that the existence and attributes of God are clearly revealed in creation and that our failure to acknowledge Him is the root of all folly. In these two essays—one on why we must consider our final end and another on the fear of God—Hale argues that if we want to be wise, we must consider how our physical death is a call to repent of ...

EL SIGLO XX NO FUE CLEMENTE CON LA TEOLOGÍA REFORMADA CLÁSICA Aunque los teólogos conservadores suelen culpar a los teólogos liberales de socavar las doctrinas protestantes tradicionales, los conservadores evangélicos más fervientes y los neoortodoxos también revisaron en gran medida varias doctrinas esenciales. Aunque Cornelius Van Til desarrolló la apologética presuposicional como un intento de permanecer fiel a la verdad cristiana intemporal, en el proceso sacrificó la comprensión universal y reformada del uso de la revelación natural en teología y apologética. "Las cosas ...

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....

The prospect of Christian Reconstruction is often derided by its critics as being “triumphalist.” One can just hear the unfaithful spies chiding Joshua and Caleb with similar disapproval as they sought to conquer the inhabitants of the promised land– a land filled with giants. But Christ did not entrust the Church with the Great Commission for its mere survival. We have been appointed to a calling that is more expansive than simply “reaching” people groups. We are called to disciple the nations to obedience in all areas of life.

This is a book about hope in the midst of a polarized culture. Camosy begins with a hopeful starting point in the midst of a crumbling US political culture: two of every three Americans constitute an “exhausted majority” who reject right/left polarization and are open to alternative viewpoints.

This brief introduction surveys Christian thinking on an array of topics related to security and peace from a just war perspective.

With the troubling and painful events of the last several years - from the shooting of numerous unarmed black men at the hands of police to the rallying of white supremacists in Charlottesville - it is clearer than ever that the reconciliation paradigm, long favored by white Christians, has failed to heal the deep racial wounds in the church and American society. In this provocative audiobook, originally published in 2014, Jennifer Harvey argues for a radical shift away from the well-meaning but feeble longing for reconciliation toward a robustly biblical call for reparations.

In 1776, a short time after the Declaration of Independence was adopted, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Benjamin Franklin were assigned to design an official seal for the United States of America. Their proposed motto was “Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God.” America then owed its existence to centuries of Christian political philosophy and provided a model for liberty copied by nations the world over. By the 21st century, we are precariously close to falling prey to the error that the state is, as Georg Hegel put it, “God walking on earth.” Is there still hope today for ...

In this sensitive and probing book, Matthew Ichihashi Potts explores the complex moral terrain of forgiveness, which he claims has too often served as a salve to the conscience of power rather than as an instrument of healing or justice. Though forgiveness is often linked with reconciliation or the abatement of anger, Potts resists these associations, asserting instead that forgiveness is simply the refusal of retaliatory violence through practices of penitence and grief.
