Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you practice garage theology? Garage theology is common in today's churches. Some practice it without knowing what it is. A simple definition would be "going to church makes someone a Christian." This is no more logical than believing going into a garage will make someone a Cadillac. This delusional premise is convincingly debunked within this book. The lone traveler is perplexed. Why is he alone so much of the time while such crowds pack the city? Why is the wilderness the way to know God? Here is a classic retelling of the quest of all humanity-to understand the mystery of life. Our unidentified traveler has bouts of certainty interspersed with doubts. The hardships are real; the goal is eternal. He is faced with tests. He is deceived, but he recovers. He struggles to maintain the main thing as the main thing. As a journey of adventure, surprise, hardship, and ultimate triumph, it is an accurate picture of life in the spirit. Finally, the reader is confronted with the question: What is revival? Two options are presented. Which is reality? A time will come when instead of shepherds feeding the sheep, the church will have clowns entertaining the goats. -Charles H. Spurgeon 25

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up in the Midwest, being born into a large family and having a nomadic father, caused my life to be one of great adventures. My father was a preacher and a jack of all trades. He was an inventor and entrepreneur. He could not look at an empty building without wanting to start a church or a business in it. Life with him was an education, and growing up as the youngest of twelve children set the stage for lots of fun and experiences. Although I did not set out to write a life story, I suppose this is kind of what it is. It seems I have spent most of my adult life trying to get free from the hypocrisy and man-made rules of organized religion and denominations. I consider myself predenominational. I endeavor to base my beliefs and my life on the teachings of Jesus and the early church. It has been a great struggle to Escape from Religiosity.

Book excerpt: A "marvelous" (Economist) account of how the Christian Revolution forged the Western imagination. Crucifixion, the Romans believed, was the worst fate imaginable, a punishment reserved for slaves. How astonishing it was, then, that people should have come to believe that one particular victim of crucifixion-an obscure provincial by the name of Jesus-was to be worshipped as a god. Dominion explores the implications of this shocking conviction as they have reverberated throughout history. Today, the West remains utterly saturated by Christian assumptions. As Tom Holland demonstrates, our morals and ethics are not universal but are instead the fruits of a very distinctive civilization. Concepts such as secularism, liberalism, science, and homosexuality are deeply rooted in a Christian seedbed. From Babylon to the Beatles, Saint Michael to #MeToo, Dominion tells the story of how Christianity transformed the modern world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He Made a Way to Escape reveals how those who are living in an alternative lifestyle can find freedom from the lies of Satan, who has deceived scores of innocent men and women into rejecting the truth about their lives. The Word of God reveals that for every temptation of the enemy, God has made a way to escape. Only by knowing the truth can we be set free from deception, whether it is wrong thinking about ourselves or wrong thinking about others. He Made a Way to Escape liberates not only those who are being judged, but also those who are doing the judging. He Made a Way to Escape is an excellent witnessing tool to give to someone you might know who is engaged in an alternative lifestyle, because it reveals the truth of God's Word without being prideful or judgmental. The Author's ministry spans fourteen years of teaching the gospel of Jesus Christ in prisons, missions and jails in Arkansas and Tennessee. She graduated Bible College from Forward Ministries, Global Ministries and Relief, and is a long-standing member of Church of the Harvest. She has been a guest speaker on Christian radio and has spoken to men and women's groups on various Christian topics. She is also author of the book, The Immaculate Deception.

This book was released on 2021-02-23 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last thirty years, conservative evangelicals have been moving to the Northwest of the United States, where they hope to resist the impact of secular modernity and to survive the breakdown of society that they anticipate. These believers have often given up on the politics of the Christian Right, adopting strategies of hibernation while developing the communities and institutions from which a new America might one day emerge. Their activity coincides with the promotion by prominent survivalist authors of a program of migration to the "American Redoubt," a region encompassing Idaho, Montana, parts of eastern Washington and Oregon, and Wyoming, as a haven in which to endure hostile social change or natural disaster and in which to build a new social order. These migration movements have independent origins, but they overlap in their influences and aspirations, working in tandem to offer a vision of the present in which Christian values must be defended as American society is rebuilt according to biblical law. This book examines the origins, evolution, and cultural reach of this little-noted migration and considers what it might tell us about the future of American evangelicalism. Drawing on Calvinist theology, the social theory of Christian Reconstruction, and libertarian politics, these believers are projecting significant soft power. Their books are promoted by leading mainstream publishers and listed as New York Times bestsellers. Their strategy is gaining momentum, making an impact in local political and economic life, while being repackaged for a wider audience in publications by a broader coalition of conservative commentators and in American mass culture. This survivalist evangelical subculture recognizes that they have lost the culture war - but another kind of conflict is beginning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inspiring book that shows how knowing and trusting Jesus enables us to do hard things rather than seeking to escape from them Almost anything that is worth doing is a struggle. Almost anything that benefits other people is tough to do. Almost anything that makes a difference in this world is hard to see through to the end. Which is why, we’ll often do almost anything to escape doing it! Yet we want to love people well, even when they’re difficult... tackle challenges that we find difficult... and keep moving forwards through times that prove difficult. Deep down we want to get on with doing hard things, fix what needs fixing and change what needs changing. This book shows us how a bigger, better picture of Jesus will transform us. Our panic and tendency to avoid difficult things can be replaced with joyful, get-things-done confidence and proactivity when we depend on God’s power. If you avoid difficult things but want to change, this book is for you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning reexamination of one of the essential tenets of Christian belief from one of the most provocative and admired writers on religion today “A scathing, vigorous, eloquent attack on those who hold that that there is such a thing as eternal damnation.”—Karen Kilby, Commonweal The great fourth-century church father Basil of Caesarea once observed that, in his time, most Christians believed that hell was not everlasting, and that all would eventually attain salvation. But today, this view is no longer prevalent within Christian communities. In this momentous book, David Bentley Hart makes the case that nearly two millennia of dogmatic tradition have misled readers on the crucial matter of universal salvation. On the basis of the earliest Christian writings, theological tradition, scripture, and logic, Hart argues that if God is the good creator of all, he is the savior of all, without fail. And if he is not the savior of all, the Kingdom is only a dream, and creation something considerably worse than a nightmare. But it is not so. There is no such thing as eternal damnation; all will be saved. With great rhetorical power, wit, and emotional range, Hart offers a new perspective on one of Christianity’s most important themes.

Download or read book Millennium written by Tom Holland and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2011-04-21 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the civilisations existing in the year 1000, that of Western Europe seemed the unlikeliest candidate for future greatness. Compared to the glittering empires of Byzantium or Islam, the splintered kingdoms on the edge of the Atlantic appeared impoverished, fearful and backward. But the anarchy of these years proved to be, not the portents of the end of the world, as many Christians had dreaded, but rather the birthpangs of a radically new order. MILLENNIUM is a stunning panoramic account of the two centuries on either side of the apocalyptic year 1000. This was the age of Canute, William the Conqueror and Pope Gregory VII, of Vikings, monks and serfs, of the earliest castles and the invention of knighthood, and of the primal conflict between church and state. The story of how the distinctive culture of Europe - restless, creative and dynamic - was forged from out of the convulsions of these extraordinary times is as fascinating and as momentous as any in history.

Download or read book 50 Simple Questions for Every Christian written by Guy P. Harrison and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2013-03-19 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in a respectful and conversational style, this unique book is designed to promote constructive dialogue and foster mutual understanding between Christians and non-Christians. The author, a skeptic and journalist, asks basic questions about Christian belief. What is the born-again experience? Why would God want to sacrifice his only son for the world? Do miracles really happen? How reliable is the Bible? What is the rapture? Why isn't everyone a Christian? Each question is followed by commentary and analysis that is skeptical and tough but never argumentative or condescending. Christians will find the book useful as a basis for developing their apologetics, while skeptics will welcome Harrison's probing rational analysis of religious claims.

Book excerpt: After his martyrdom at the hands of the Gestapo in 1945, Dietrich Bonhoeffer continued his witness in the hearts of Christians around the world. His Letters and Papers from Prison became a prized testimony to Christian faith and courage, read by thousands. Now in Life Together we have Pastor Bonhoeffer's experience of Christian community. This story of a unique fellowship in an underground seminary during the Nazi years reads like one of Paul's letters. It gives practical advice on how life together in Christ can be sustained in families and groups. The role of personal prayer, worship in common, everyday work, and Christian service is treated in simple, almost biblical, words. Life Together is bread for all who are hungry for the real life of Christian fellowship.
