Book Synopsis Bold Thinking Christianity by : Michael Phillips
Download or read book Bold Thinking Christianity written by Michael Phillips and published by Rosetta Books. This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by C.S. Lewis’s classic Mere Christianity, the renowned Christian author presents a bold new vision of faith in modern times. In 1952, C.S. Lewis’s Mere Christianity turned the tide of public debate surrounding the validity of Christian faith. In a series of essays, Lewis made compelling arguments for the existence of God and the divinity of Jesus, answering popular criticisms of the era. Now author Michael Phillips takes up the mantle, going beyond “mere” Christianity to present intellectually rigorous faith as an essential component of contemporary life. Once an avowed atheist, Lewis found spiritual inspiration in the spiritual writings of George MacDonald. As the leading authority on MacDonald’s work, Michael Phillips draws from the same wellspring of wisdom to provide an equally stimulating examination of Christian theology.
Book Synopsis Out of the Wardrobe by : Michael Phillips
Download or read book Out of the Wardrobe written by Michael Phillips and published by Rosetta Books. This book was released on 2018-08-17 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed Christian author shares his spiritual and intellectual journey away from received dogmas and toward a personal relationship with God. “When I began writing, I recognized that God’s primary call on my life was to speak through my writing to Christians. That call was to challenge readers to think beyond formula-faith. I desired to present no new formulas, but to point to the deeper truths toward which Jesus persistently urged his disciples about his Father. It was a call directed as much toward myself as anyone else.” Novelist and devotional author Michael Phillips takes the reader on a personal journey of faith, chronicling his quest to move beyond learned formulas of belief to an intimate knowledge of God’s Fatherhood. The Salvation Conundrum, the Hell Conundrum, and the Cross Conundrum all came under Phillips’ scrutiny as he learned what it means to be a bold thinking Christian.

But many will not obey. In The Commands of Jesus, Michael Phillips illuminates the true meaning and vital importance of heeding God’s word. He identifies 120 commands of Jesus found in the Gospels and discusses how we can incorporate each one into our daily lives.

Book Synopsis Practical Essential Christianity by : Michael Phillips
Download or read book Practical Essential Christianity written by Michael Phillips and published by Rosetta Books. This book was released on 2013-12-14 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concise yet thorough analysis of core Christian principles cuts through doctrinal debates to illuminate the essentials of faith. Much of Christendom functions on the basis of formulas, catechisms, recipes of spirituality, and widely varying lists of what is considered “acceptable doctrine.” This brief discussion simplifies the vast scope of Christian truth by identifying eight essential “principles” that can be embraced and practiced by all Christians and churches across the spectrum of belief. Devotional author Michael Phillips uses these universal truths as a springboard for investigating the fundamentals of the Christian faith for both beginner and theologian, simple yet life-changing and profound. He also includes a parallel exploration of several common pitfalls that have infiltrated the church through history as counterfeit indicators of spirituality.
Book Synopsis George MacDonald and the Late Great Hell Debate by : Michael Phillips
Download or read book George MacDonald and the Late Great Hell Debate written by Michael Phillips and published by Rosetta Books. This book was released on 2018-10-28 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The leading MacDonald scholar settles the longstanding debate about the author’s views on hell with an in-depth analysis of his thought on the afterlife. Throughout his extensive and influential writings on Christian theology, George MacDonald only hints at his perspectives on hell, atonement, and everlasting punishment. Nowhere does he clearly state a doctrinal position on the subject. As a result, a controversy has raged for more than a century about whether or not MacDonald was a universalist. Now MacDonald scholar and biographer Michael Phillips tackles the “great hell debate” head on in this authoritative book. With numerous quotes from MacDonald’s writings and his extensive knowledge of MacDonald’s work, Phillips blows the lid off the debate by illuminating the full scope of MacDonald’s afterlife vision. One of the most significant studies of MacDonald’s theological perspectives ever written, this is a must-read for all serious students of George MacDonald.

Michaels’s ambitious assistant is less than forthcoming about their new development project—or the donations it’s generating.

Christians everywhere—including Phillips himself—seem resistant the imperatives of sacrifice and obedience. Yet they remain the bull’s eye of the Christian faith.

Book Synopsis Make Me Like Jesus by : Michael Phillips
Download or read book Make Me Like Jesus written by Michael Phillips and published by Rosetta Books. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling author serves up “a marvelous, full-bodied repast for those Christians who seek God’s presence rather than any blessings he might bestow” (Publishers Weekly). Most of us want to know God more intimately. But are we willing to boldly face the challenge of what that means? Are we truly willing to pray a prayer that may be dangerous in ways we cannot anticipate? Are we willing to ask God to make us like Jesus? Author Michael Phillips shares from his own life how he has learned to take up that challenge. Then he examines key decisions in the life of Jesus Christ that illuminate what it means for each one of us to be conformed to the image of his son—to love like Jesus, think like him, pray like him, and trust the Father like him. If status-quo spirituality is for you, do not read this book. It is a dangerous book—dangerous to the flesh—for the journey toward Christlikeness may be painful and costly. Yet that journey leads to the ultimate purpose God intends for all his children: conformity to the image of his son. “This book is a gem, written from the heart by a man I have called brother and friend for twenty years. Make Me Like Jesus gives us an open, honest look at what it really means to walk truthfully with Christ.” —Jim Ryun, former Congressman, Olympian, and coauthor of Heroes Among Us “Phillips offers a much-needed corrective to several popular but superficial descriptions of the Christian life.” —Bishop William C. Frey, author of The Dance of Hope

Download or read book Bold Faith written by Ben Pugh and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-03-09 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bill Johnson, Joyce Meyer, Heidi Baker. The fame of these names is evidence enough that, though the controversies are less intense, the Charismatic Movement is alive and well today. It continues to attract thousands of adherents who find its vision of a supernatural lifestyle uniquely compelling. Now, for the first time, all that is most theologically innovative about the movement is synthesized into five distinct and original ideas. These five brand new theologies have been created, not by theologians, but by practitioners who believed their concepts were inspired by the Spirit: Inner Healing, Shepherding, Word of Faith, Spiritual Warfare, and Signs and Wonders. Plenty of studies have been written by Pentecostal scholars about Pentecostal theology, but these tend to group the very distinct approaches of Charismatics together with Classical Pentecostals. Bold Faith aims to analyze and evaluate the ways in which practitioners within independent Charismatic networks, especially in their Anglo-American expressions, have responded to the challenges of secular modernity.
