Is This the End? (with Bonus Content)
Author: Dr. David Jeremiah
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 0718082931
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
This eBook includes the full text of the book plus an additional chapter on Europe from Dr. Jeremiah’s book What in the World Is Going On? not included in the print book! According to the headlines, the world is falling apart! Where's God in all of the change, conflict, and chaos? Pastor David Jeremiah offers culturally relevant and biblically accurate insights on terrorism, radicalized Islam, the new Russia, the debt crisis, and more to reveal how God's hand is at work in his unfolding plan for humanity. Never have headlines been this jarring, cultural changes this rapid, or moral decay this pronounced. What on earth is happening? After each new occurrence, the most oft-heard questions are, “Will the world ever be the same again?” and “Where is God in all of this?” Over the last few decades, Dr. David Jeremiah has become one of the world’s most sought-after Christian leaders on topics that deal with biblical application and modern culture. And few would dispute that the pace at which things are currently changing is unprecedented. The time has come to accept this new normal, Jeremiah says, and understand how God’s hand is still at work on His eternal plan for mankind. Split into two sections, the book covers timely topics surrounding two important questions: Is this the end of America? and Is this the end of the world? including detailed chapters on: Terrorism in the world today ISIS and radicalized Islam The New Russia and its global impact The bleeding of America's borders and the immigration crisis Polarization and divisiveness politically and in our communities The "anything goes" society The coming of Christ and the end of the world No one can afford to ignore these warnings, but all can better understand the greater story and the role we each play in this changing world. From prophetic clues in Scripture to an understanding of the power of Christ in all believers, this book directs us on a clear path forward. Interested in learning more?

American Evangelicals in Egypt
Author: Heather J. Sharkey
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691168105
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
In 1854, American Presbyterian missionaries arrived in Egypt as part of a larger Anglo-American Protestant movement aiming for worldwide evangelization. Protected by British imperial power, and later by mounting American global influence, their enterprise flourished during the next century. American Evangelicals in Egypt follows the ongoing and often unexpected transformations initiated by missionary activities between the mid-nineteenth century and 1967--when the Six-Day Arab-Israeli War uprooted the Americans in Egypt. Heather Sharkey uses Arabic and English sources to shed light on the many facets of missionary encounters with Egyptians. These occurred through institutions, such as schools and hospitals, and through literacy programs and rural development projects that anticipated later efforts of NGOs. To Egyptian Muslims and Coptic Christians, missionaries presented new models for civic participation and for women's roles in collective worship and community life. At the same time, missionary efforts to convert Muslims and reform Copts stimulated new forms of Egyptian social activism and prompted nationalists to enact laws restricting missionary activities. Faced by Islamic strictures and customs regarding apostasy and conversion, and by expectations regarding the proper structure of Christian-Muslim relations, missionaries in Egypt set off debates about religious liberty that reverberate even today. Ultimately, the missionary experience in Egypt led to reconsiderations of mission policy and evangelism in ways that had long-term repercussions for the culture of American Protestantism.

The Oxford Handbook of Anglican Studies
Author: Mark David Chapman
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199218560
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 673
Book Description
The Anglican Communion is the third largest Christian denomination and claims a membership of some 80 million members in about 164 countries. Given that there are only around two hundred countries in the world, this makes the churches of the Anglican Communion the most geographicallywidespread denomination after Roman Catholicism. The 44 essays in this volume embrace a wide range of academic disciplines: theological; historical; demography and geography; and different aspects of culture and ethics. They are united in their discussion of what is effectively a newinter-disciplinary subject which we have termed "Anglican Studies". At the core of this volume is the phenomenon of "Anglicanism" as this is expressed in different places and in a variety of ways across the world.This Handbook covers a far broader set of topics from a wider range of perspectives than has been hitherto attempted in Anglican Studies. At the same time, it doesn't impose a particular theological or historical agenda. The contributions are drawn from across the spectrum of theological views andopinions. It shows that the unsettled nature of the polity is part of its own rich history; and many will see this as a somewhat lustrous tradition. In its comprehensive coverage, this volume is a valuable contribution to Anglican Studies and helps formulate a discipline that might perhaps promotedialogue and discussion across the Anglican world.

Sudan
Author: Abdel Salam Sidahmed
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134479476
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
Stretching between the savannah and the equator, Sudan is a microcosm of Africa, with one leg in the Arab world and the other in Africa. Sudan's development, however, has failed to address the differences within the country between its diverse ethnic communities. This has resulted in political instability and a lack of national consensus, ultimately leading to long-term civil war. This useful book provides a comprehensive introduction to contemporary Sudan, outlining the evolution of the state with emphasis on its post-independence experience. It includes chapters on the history, politics, society, international relations and economy of the country.

With God in South Sudan
Author: Oscar Momanyi
Publisher: Mereo Books, mereobook, mereobooks
ISBN: 1370697678
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 153
Book Description
Oscar Momanyi was sent to work as a high school teacher in war-torn South Sudan. This book is an account of his experience and that of other men and women who lived and worked there. Though his experiences were challenging and sometimes frightening, his story bears witness to the message of Christ in Matthew 28:19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." The author felt his assignment to South Sudan was a baptism of fire. He knew he could not face the challenges ahead of him without God's help. He trusted God would lead him every step of the way as he shared his life with the South Sudanese people.
