Book Description
Dr. Norman L. Geisler has been called the "father of evangelical Christian philosophy." He has written more than one hundred books and taught at universities and top seminaries for some fifty-six years. He was the first president of the Evangelical Philosophical Society and the founder and first president of the International Society of Christian Apologetics. He has spoken or debated in more than two dozen countries and held pastoral/pulpit ministries in four states. Many view him as a cross between Thomas Aquinas and Billy Graham. No one has done more to communicate the modern challenges of the Faith to the "average" Christian, to the church, and to the academy. This volume offers creative and constructive essays from twenty-three contributors, all notable in their own right, who preserve and propagate Dr. Geisler's ideas and express appreciation for his influence. Those who know him best say he is "true, faithful, and blessed by God!"

Book Description
Now in its third edition and featuring a new foreword by New York Times best-selling author David Platt, pastor Mark Dever’s classic book is not an instruction manual for church growth. Rather, it is a wise pastor’s recommendation for how to assess the health of a church using nine crucial qualities often neglected by many of today’s congregations. Church leaders and church members alike will resonate with the principles outlined here, breathing new life and health into the church at large. In this newly revised edition, fresh arguments have been added (for example on expositional preaching, about the nature of the gospel, on complementarianism), illustrations have been updated, appendices have been changed, and cover has been improved.

Book Description
LOS ANGELES TIMES AND ECPA BESTSELLER • Kerry and Chris Shook’s grandson Jude lived for only one day after he was born. That one day changed the way they live every day. Now they share their lessons of faith and hope. Jude Samuel Shook lived through only one sunset and one sunrise. Just one rotation of the planet . . . and he went home to be with God. Yet the way Jude unwrapped the divine gift of his one day changed the way his grandparents now live every day. A little boy who lived on this earth for just a handful of hard-fought hours caused Kerry and Chris to wonder, How many of our days make a breath of difference to those around us? Their personal journal of loss, longing, and love eventually became known as the Miracle Book, a record of the ways God showed up in the midst of this hard and unexpected heartbreak. From this book, Kerry and Chris have gleaned fourteen life-altering truths, such as: • When Tomorrow Is Too Much, Pray Just for Today, Lord • You Are Dependent on God for Every Breath • Hard Isn’t the Opposite of Good • Fear and Faith Can’t Occupy the Same Space • There Is a Hidden Gift in Every Hurt These lessons have forever changed the way the Shooks approach each new day. And no matter your current situation, they can do the same for you. Join Kerry and Chris Shook on the journey of making every day matter!

Book Description
PAUL'S LETTER TO THE PHILIPPIANS provides the reader with an explanation of Scripture that is detailed and up-to-date with modern scholarship, faithful to Scripture as the inerrant, infallible Word of God. It is a trusted resource for Bible study. Each commentary volume offers straightforward, clear, trustworthy, practical, and applicable explanations written by conservative, evangelical scholars. This verse-by-verse commentary makes every volume easy to understand and beneficial to your Christian life today. Yet, it also gives the reader a more in-depth understanding of God's Word. The author does not provide you with what he thinks, feels, or believes. Instead, he gives you what God said and what the Bible author meant by the words that he used. The reader will also be given the historical context, Bible backgrounds, and any Bible difficulties.

Book Description
How Does God Really Want Us to Prove Christianity Christian apologetics is the endeavor to prove "There is salvation in no one else [but Jesus Christ] (Acts 4:12). The most popular approach is an intellectual one that marshals scientific, historical, and philosophical arguments to defend the Christian faith. However, this book makes the following claims: - Intellectual apologetics has no biblical support, including the often quoted 1 Peter 3:15. - The Apostle Paul actually denounced the use of intellectual apologetics for evangelism. - Virtue apologetics, which proves the Gospel by the superior love and holiness of Spirit-indwelled believers, is repeatedly commanded in Scripture and demonstrated in real life and history. - Claims to Christian immorality in both history and modern research are not true. - While there are a multitude of books on intellectual apologetics, this author could not find a biblical study that explains, defends, and encourages virtue apologetics. So he wrote one.

Book Description
The Catholic Comparative New Testament features eight complete Catholic New Testaments, translated by dedicated scholars and gathered into a single convenient volume. This edition includes both "word-for-word" translations of the scripture as well as "thought-for-thought" translations. Readers can compare verses at a glance with facing-page translations (four translations per page) in a clear, easy-to-read typeface. The CCNT features four "word-for-word" translations - Douay-Rheims, Revised Standard Version Catholic Bible, New Revised Standard Version Catholic Bible, and the New American Bible. These translations follow as closely as possible the New Testament's original wording, making them perfect for close readings of the text. The Jerusalem Bible, the Good News Bible, the New Jerusalem Bible, and the Christian Community Bible represent the "thought-for-thought" school of Bible translation. These translations emphasize the intended meaning of the original vocabulary, adapting it to English syntax and grammar, making it easier to understand for the lay reader. The Catholic Comparative New Testament offers the most unique and informed way of reading scripture with its eight different translations. Beautifully printed on the highest quality material, the CCNT is an excellent study guide for the value.
