With conviction and clear thinking, Geisler and Turek guide listeners through some of the traditional, tested arguments for the existence of a creator God.

Did the historical person Jesus really regard himself as the Son of God? What did Jesus actually stand for? And what are we to make of the early Christian conviction that Jesus physically rose from the dead? In this book, N. T. Wright considers these and many other questions raised by three controversial books about Jesus: Barbara Thiering's Jesus the Man, A. N. Wilson's Jesus: A Life, and John Shelby Spong's Born of a Woman.

In his best-selling book Falling Upward, Richard Rohr talked about ego (or the False Self) and how it gets in the way of spiritual maturity. But if there's a False Self, is there also a True Self? What is it? How is it found? This book likens True Self to a diamond, buried deep within us, formed under the intense pressure of our lives, that must be searched for, uncovered, separated from all the debris of ego that surrounds it. In a sense True Self must, like Jesus, be resurrected, and that process is not resuscitation but transformation.

When Jesus began his ministry, he announced that the kingdom of God was at hand. But many modern-day Christians don’t really understand what the kingdom of God is or how it relates to the message of the gospel.

Whether you are seeking to understand the Christian faith for the first time, or looking to be reminded of the basics, John Stott offers a clear and full explanation of the Gospel.

This book materialized in response to the need for a beginner’s guide to the message of Isaiah, one that captures its main points in a single volume. This is a simple handbook—one that nevertheless has depth. Taking simplification even further, Chapter One, “Overviews of Isaiah’s Prophecy,” summarizes the main points of Isaiah’s message in itself, while the following chapters expand upon them. Of necessity, therefore, some redundancy exists as Isaiah’s prophecies are explained first in part and later more fully.

In The Great Rescue, Dr. R.C. Sproul introduces the Bible’s message of salvation. Since God is holy and we are not, we stand condemned in His presence. We have no power to remove our sin or to escape His wrath. But by sheer grace, God has provided the rescue we need through the atoning sacrifice of His Son. Seeing that Jesus alone brings salvation, one question remains: Will you trust in Him?

Signs are converging as prophetic pieces rapidly fall into place. Jesus is coming soon to remove His followers from the earth in the greatest rescue mission in history: the Rapture of the Church.

Remarriage after Divorce? A Biblical Defense of the Traditional Christian View delivers a compelling and deeply scriptural exploration of one of Christianity's most controversial topics. Author C.A. White defends the historical Christian view that while divorce may be permissible in some cases, remarriage while the original spouse is still alive constitutes adultery—without exceptions. White argues that repentance from such situations requires extraordinary steps, including separation or celibacy, as continuing in unrepentant adultery jeopardizes one's eternal soul.

In this audiobook, theologian R. Albert Mohler Jr. delves into the historical significance of the offices of prophet, priest, and king. He traces their origins in the Old Testament to their ultimate fulfillment in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Mohler presents a compelling argument: the three offices should not be compartmentalized. They are interconnected and essential for Christian faithfulness in the home, the church, and society. When Jesus Christ returns, the whole world will bow to him as Lord—Prophet, Priest, and King.

Wann sollten Christen sich aufgrund verschiedener Lehrmeinungen trennen und wann sollten sie nach Einheit streben? Diese Frage lässt sich nicht immer einfach beantworten. Gavin Ortlund schlägt in Wofür es sich zu kämpfen lohnt – und wofür nicht vor, das aus der Medizin bekannte Konzept der Triage auf die theologischen Debatten anzuwenden und so die richtigen Prioritäten zu setzen. Er verwendet dabei vier Kategorien und fordert Christen dazu auf, theologische Diskussionen in Demut zu führen, um die Verbreitung des Evangeliums dadurch zu fördern.
