Of all the gods, gurus, and good people out there, why Jesus? Why follow some ancient carpenter-turned-philosopher from a Podunk town in the Middle East? A man whose own people didn't believe in him for the most part. It just doesn't make any sense.

God is on a mission to make all things new: from the fashion industry to the business community, from politics to education, and from entertainment to media and the arts. God’s burning desire is to bring restoration to every sphere of society. Starting in Genesis and working through the Scriptures, All Things New will take you on a journey into the very heart of God and his relentless passion to redeem lives, heal the nations, rewire the culture, and bring renewal to all of creation.

This book offers pastors, other congregational leaders, and seminary students a thought-provoking biblical theology of worship, followed by a look at how three very different traditions of churchmanship might move from this theological base to a better understanding of corporate worship. Running the gamut from biblical theology to historical assessment all the way to sample service sheets, Worship by the Book shows how local churches in diverse traditions can foster corporate worship that is God-honoring, Word-revering, heartfelt, and historically and culturally informed.

Some churches advocate one-on-one discipling, others try getting everyone into a small group, while still others training through mission trips or service projects. Yet others focus all their efforts on attracting people to a large group gathering to hear biblical teaching and preaching. But does one size really fit everyone? Based on careful biblical study and years of experience making disciples in the local church, Bobby Harrington and Alex Absalom have identified five key relationships where discipleship happens in our lives.

Religion says, "Change and you can join us." Jesus says, "Join us and you will change." There's a huge difference. Being a sinner doesn't disqualify anyone. Being an unbeliever doesn't disqualify anyone. In fact, following Jesus almost always begins with a sinner and unbeliever taking one small step. In this eight-session audio Bible study (guide sold separately), pastor and best-selling author Andy Stanley takes small groups on a journey through the Gospels as he traces Jesus' teaching on what it means to follow.

For all who earnestly seek to accept the Lord Jesus Christ’s loving invitation to come unto him and partake of the fruit of the tree of life, there is tremendous need for us to understand how literally and directly the adversary is endeavoring to defeat our discipleship by tampering with our thoughts. Cunningly disguised as our own mental processes, Satan’s meddlings go way beyond what most people recognize as temptations. Thoughts that tear down our sense of worth, foster negative feelings toward others, and fill us with fear, doubt, and discouragement are also of satanic origin.

Jesus is Real is the story of how a normal guy was found by Jesus. Discover the real and tangible love of God in your own life as you follow Aric's supernatural story. Dare to believe that God really does love you and has an extraordinary plan for your life.

Most of us don't want to spend our lives being time-wasters, space-takers, binge-watchers, or game-players. We want to be difference-makers. But how do we do it? By revealing the way Jesus valued people, best-selling author Kyle Idleman shows us the Jesus way of changing the world - by loving people one at a time.

All of Grace is C.H. Spurgeon's easy-to-understand presentation of salvation through Christ’s grace alone. Known as the “Prince of Preachers”, Spurgeon's messages transcended denominational lines. And they have also reached millions of spiritually hungry souls for generations since his death. We share Spurgeon's hopeful confidence that your listening of this book is but the first step on a path set before you by the Holy Spirit, leading back to Him. To that end, we have slightly modernized the text.

A lo largo de los siglos, muchas de estas cuestiones desconcertantes han frustrado el cumplimiento de la Gran Comisión. En este libro, espero abordar cuatro categorías principales que, en mi opinión, han perjudicado nuestros esfuerzos por cumplir el mandato directo del Señor. Estos Enigmas de la Gran Comisión se refieren a la financiación, la política, la responsabilidad y la filosofía.

The Book of Acts is a great story of the early church Jesus started and left in the tiny nation of Israel. He left his unlikely group of disciples with the enormous task of spreading what they knew about Jesus and their experience with him to the entire world. They were successful and not only reached their world, but generations into the future. Approximately 2,000 years after he returned to Heaven, the church exists in places like South America, Asia, and the remotest islands of the Earth.

In 2003, Cindy McGill created the Freedom Lounge theme camp at the Burning Man festival in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada. From there, her efforts evolved to reaching young women and men within porn conventions, using dream interpretation as a tool to reach those living a life they have settled for instead of the one they are made for. From pagan festivals, new age events, film festivals, adult entertainment arenas, gay pride events, gothic cultures, and just about any place, people are starving for truth, Cindy and her teams are there.

Never before has humanity existed in a culture that rejects belief in a transcendent power. Previous cultures - even when rent by disagreements - shared a common belief that a greater force stood above the material realm. But when one side acknowledges an ultimate source of truth while the other side denies it, debate is dead and mutual understanding is impossible. It is ordinary men and women who become extraordinary heroes in this the battle against Satan, explains Fr. Longenecker. Only by the light of our lives will we defeat this darkness. Debate and dialogue are now pointless.

Breakout author James Finke is back to help you cut through the noise and get at the structural integrity of the faith. Listeners say it’s like having a friend personally explain it to you. For Christians who are new to or perhaps have never even heard the term Christian Apologetics, get ready to level up. Your personal faith, and your ability to share the good news of Jesus Christ with others, will never be the same.

Your life is leading up to something vital. You are going somewhere. But the overall success or disaster of your path hinges on what you do with some crucial details. For many centuries of human history, varied prophets saw such threads of a master plan taking shape. Then in the first century of our era, a man was born to fulfill the most sacred of their prophecies. That man, Jesus of Nazareth, sought to break our chains and free the human spirit forever. What makes his teachings so revolutionary? Were the prophets correct?

What will it take to accomplish Christ's mission in our lifetime? That's the question evangelicals have been asking for over a century, but our efforts to reach the unreached and finish the task have often sacrificed the important for the immediate. The greatest challenge in evangelical missions isn't a lack of urgency, but a lack of discernment. As we've prioritized movements that are simple and reproducible, the gospel and faithful churches are now threatened. In Mission Affirmed, Elliot Clark seeks to reshape our motivation by considering the example of Paul the missionary.

During his time at Oxford, a friend asked Paget Wilkes one day, “I say, Paget, do you tackle everyone who comes into your rooms about his soul?" “Yes," answered Paget, “if he comes in alone." Wilkes was convinced that even the humblest Christian is responsible for bringing men to Christ. “If we have been forgiven and know it, if we have been made new creatures in Christ Jesus, then we...are commissioned to minister this same salvation unto men and to witness of all these things which Jesus our Savior has revealed to us. Hallelujah!"

From the young Vietnamese girl who turned down freedom in order to share the gospel in her Communist homeland, to the Australian missionary who spread the message of forgiveness and healing across India after her husband and sons were burned alive, these women overcame Extreme adversity to become leaders and ministers of the underground church in Pakistan, India, Romania, the former Soviet Union, China, Vietnam, Nepal and Indonesia.

Christianity sounds compelling on the surface. But is it really as good as its marketing material? Can it actually deliver on its promises? Maybe you grew up in church and are starting to have doubts. Maybe you left church because it lacks authenticity. Or maybe you don't believe in Christianity at all and you're trying to figure out why anyone would. If you relate to any of those perspectives, then what you are looking for can be answered with these questions: What is Christianity when you strip it down to its core, and is it worth following?

Christians have some navigating to do. The culture we live in hates the message we cherish. We know the gospel we share is offensive, but sometimes we make it more offensive by our behavior. Is there a way to share an offensive message to an offended culture while not being gratuitously offensive? Blake Long challenges evangelicals: Let the gospel do the offending, not us. The gospel is offensive enough. Our attitude - our smugness - shouldn't make the gospel harder to believe. Long helps us find the problem and points us to the solution: Jesus Christ.
