Dumb Things Smart Christians Believe
Author: Gary D. Kinnaman
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1441266534
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
Gary Kinnaman contends that many Christians are blinded by what he calls "popular and nonbiblical notions" of God. Applying personal anecdotes, stories from the lives of others, and a large dose of humor, the author challenges ten beliefs that are obstacles to the experience of God's love and providence. With a lighthearted touch, the author rescues readers from stubborn religious lies, such as God grades on a curve; the better you are, the bigger the blessing. And whoppers, such as if God leads you to something, everything will work out just great. Witty and engaging, Kinnaman may offend Christians of all traditions as he provokes them to think more deeply about their faith and their behavior.

We must avoid becoming a culture of Christians in name alone so we can bear fruit and reflect Christ in our daily lives.

Learn to thrive in your relationship with God, strengthen others in their faith, and discern how to resist Satan with the guidance of this book.

Troublemakers in the Church
Author: Mark Atteberry
Publisher: Hendrickson Publishers
ISBN: 1496471555
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
Most people would agree that the church is an amazing concept--the idea that people who share faith in Christ can worship and serve together and enjoy sweet fellowship that has love, forgiveness, and mutual support as its hallmarks. But the reality is often quite different. When people who are part of the church behave in ways that are thoughtless, selfish, and even vicious, then that shining ideal dims drastically and people get wounded, sometimes never to recover. Suddenly, the one place in the community that should symbolize hope and light becomes a house of horror. Why does this happen? The easy answer is to point an accusing finger at Satan, but what about our own culpability? Troublemakers in the Church: Dealing with the Difficult, the Dangerous, and the Deadly identifies twenty-five types of troublesome church members and offers insights on how to deal with them, while also offering a specific plan for how to build a church culture that manages and minimizes trouble.
