Book Description
Everyone in the world shares the same thought: One day, I'm going to die! Although our common faith agrees that our last breath is inevitable, we are strangely divided as to what happens next. People believe that one of the following happens when we die: 1.Annihilation 2.Reincarnation 3.Purgatory 4.All go to Heaven 5.Do more good things than bad and go to Heaven 6.Judgment 7.Whichever one you personally believe is true I've been in search of the truth since I was eight years old, when I continually dreamt of being struck by a car while riding my bicycle. As I lay motionless wondering whether I was dead or alive, I was haunted by one question: Is this all there is to life? I am now fifty-five years old. I have lived on both sides of the fence of life: not believing in God and believing that God is the creator of the world and that His Son Jesus is its Savior. I sincerely hope that after reading this book, you will be convinced to do two things: 1. Recognize that only one of the seven answers above is correct, and 2. Open the Bible, believe for yourself, and don't gamble with God! Hint! "Come, you who are blessed by My Father, inherit the kingdom." - Heaven "I never knew you; depart from me." - Hell

Of Games and God
Author: Kevin Schut
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1441240519
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
Video games are big business, generating billions of dollars annually. The long-held stereotype of the gamer as a solitary teen hunched in front of his computer screen for hours is inconsistent with the current makeup of a diverse and vibrant gaming community. The rise of this cultural phenomenon raises a host of questions: Are some games too violent? Do they hurt or help our learning? Do they encourage escapism? How do games portray gender? Such questions have generated lots of talk, but missing from much of the discussion has been a Christian perspective. Kevin Schut, a communications expert and an enthusiastic gamer himself, offers a lively, balanced, and informed Christian evaluation of video games and video game culture. He expertly engages a variety of issues, encouraging readers to consider both the perils and the promise of this major cultural phenomenon. The book includes a foreword by Quentin J. Schultze.

Category : Religion
Languages : en

Book Description
Who wants to settle for fleeting treasures on earth . . . when God offers everlasting treasures in heaven? It’s time to rethink our perspectives on money and possessions.

How can we be liberated from materialism? What should we do about debt? How much does God want us to give? How can we best help the poor and reach the lost? What about gambling? Investing? Insurance?

This practical and refreshing theology of money contains topical and Scripture indexes, a study guide, and five helpful appendices.

Christianity for Modern Pagans
Author: Peter Kreeft
Publisher: Ignatius Press
ISBN: 9780898704525
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
Peter Kreeft believes that Baise Pascal is the first post-medieval apologist. No writer in history, claims Kreeft, is a more effective Christian apologist and evangelist to today's uprooted, confused, secularized pagans (inside and outside the Church) than Pascal. He was a brilliant man--a great scientist who did major work in physics and mathematics, as well as an inventor--whom Kreeft thinks was three centuries ahead of his time. His apologetics found in his Pensees are ideal for the modern, sophisticated skeptic.
