World Theology

Authors Craig Gross and J.R. Mahon challenge fellow Christ-followers to stop talking about being spiritual, and start being spiritual by rolling up their sleeves and serving a world desperate for the hope Christ offers.

Many people argue that the presence of evil in the world is proof that God cannot exist, or if he does exist, cannot be good or all-powerful. Greg Welty uses biblical exegesis alongside his experience as a philosopher to present a different conclusion. God, the sovereign Creator and Sustainer of the world, really does work all things for good. A must-listen for anyone struggling with this issue.

The fantasy worlds of some of our favorite books are not as far away from real life as we might think. The spiritual world of the Bible is dense. In the midst of existence is the Trinity, angels, demons, Satan, monsters, giants, supernatural gifts, the afterlife, bodily resurrection, and much more. As we gaze deeper into these biblical glimpses of the hidden world, we begin to reshape both our understanding of our everyday life and the way in which we can and should live out our faith as Christians.

When the Holy Spirit rushes or rests upon someone today, all kinds of things might happen. They might speak in tongues, experience healing, cast out demons, prophesy, and much, much more. Some find themselves quite comfortable with such manifestations, while others are unsure of what to make of them - this audiobook has something to say to both sides.

Bible teacher Mark Hitchcock, whose books have sold more than 300,000 copies, examines the following questions: Why December 21, 2012? Can we trust the Mayan alarm clock? Does the Bible say anything about 2012? What signs will tell us that Armageddon is near?This audio book provides a fascinating survey of both the historical past and the prophetic future. Listeners will discover how to effectively counter baseless speculation with biblical fact.

Many, including those who profess the Christian faith, don't have a thorough understanding of what Jesus taught on certain issues. Many seem to think that Christianity supports racism, condones slavery and the oppression of women. I wrote this book to shed light on the truth about what Jesus taught and delve into the issues that affect our society today as much as it did 2,000 years ago.

This audiobook combines a serious examination of the state of today's church and a powerful solution: reclaiming the gospel of grace found in the confessional truths of the Reformation. Though the Christian church has achieved a worldly sort of success - big numbers, big budgets, big outreaches - these are not good days for evangelicalism. Attendance is down, and it is increasingly difficult to distinguish so-called "believers" from their non-Christian neighbors - all because the gospel of grace has been neglected.

We’re not good at living with tension. It’s uncomfortable. It feels unsafe. The moment a friend, spouse, business, or political movement disagrees with us, we flee to the safety of like-minded thinkers, and dehumanize and attack anyone who thinks differently. No one wins. And if someone dares question our particular stance, we demonize them. This is killing us - families, friendships, civility, and discourse. It kills our chance to hear and be heard. We must step out of our bunkers and step into no-man’s-land....

In this provocative and thoughtful book, Gerald McDermott explores the theological concept of revelation and how evangelicals have responded to world religions. He then makes a case for God's having revealed himself outside of Israel and the church.

LaHaye and Hindson examine ancient Bible prophecies in light of today's news headlines and provide a panoramic survey of the final signs that will serve as God's global warning to the people of all nations. Jesus promised He would someday return to Earth to bring judgment and set up His kingdom. He even reveals specific details about what will happen.

What are those details? What can we expect? Will terrorism, nuclear threats, and the Middle East crisis have a part?

A US Marine fighter pilot explores life's important questions as he prepares for combat, searches for truth, and wages spiritual warfare during his mission to become a better husband and father. Jason B. Ladd grows up in a military family with loving parents but spends his young life filled with spiritual apathy.

We all crave love. We try to fill the void inside with any number of poor substitutes. We seek validation from empty outlets. We're thirsty for compliments. We change who we are to impress people who aren't looking and don't care. Yet, we are still desperately searching for a love that changes everything for us, a love that doesn't fade and doesn't fail - even when we do, That's the kind of love God shows that he has for us through the remarkable story of Hosea and Gomer.

Jesus. Love Him or hate Him, He's everywhere. On our T-shirts, bumper stickers, and even the covers of leading news magazines, year after year. We see Him on the silver screen, in the headline crawl on the TV news, and on the homemade signs held up at ball games. Hotly debated, He remains the most conspicuous figure of all time, even 20 centuries after His inglorious death.

WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING? Your answer to that questions determines how much God can do in you, through you, and for you. If you think little, believe little, pray little, and expect little, you'll receive little. But if you think big, believe big, pray big, and expect big, you'll receive big. It's all up to you. God's plans for your life are too good and too important for you to settle for little.

When it comes to God, most people live in the Someday Zone. "Maybe someday God will heal me." "Maybe someday God will deliver me." "Maybe someday God will bless me." Someday...someday...someday. Everything is always going to happen someday. The good news is that God is not a someday God. He's a right-now God. He cares about you right now and he wants to bless you right now. You don't have to wait until someday. He's ready and willing to work in your life today. Right now. Immediately.

WALKING IN LOVE. Nobody did it better than Jesus. Love ultimately led Him to the point of laying down His very own life for the sake of others. He set aside His personal preferences. He overlooked the wrongs He suffered. He was quick to forgive and quick to to restore. He prayed for those who despitefully used Him. And what a difference He made because of that. Multiplied millions of lives have been changed because this one Man dared to obey God and walk the Love Walk.

A clash between cultures has happened many times throughout history. Events from 1979 to this point is leading the Western and Muslim cultures into a crusade with no present way out. The reason for all this fighting for the past 37 years has no simple answer and history has a way of always repeating itself.

In our increasingly secular world, many claim that Christianity is oppressive and toxic. Christians are accused of standing on the wrong side of history, failing to accept human dignity, freedom, and progress. Are these accusations valid? Is Christianity actually causing more harm than good in the world? In this concise booklet, author Sharon James shows that through history and across the globe, true followers of Christ have challenged injustice and abuse, and provided care for the needy.

It’s been said that silence is golden. Not so for Christians. For Christians, Silence is sin. We have an assignment, and that assignment is to preach the gospel to all the world. We’ve been commissioned to do it. We’ve been empowered to do it. And we’ll be rewarded for doing it. So why aren’t we doing it? Fear. We’ve let ourselves be intimidated, dominated, and manipulated by the devil and we’ve retreated into silence.

All of us need wisdom to make it through life successfully. The question is, where do we find true wisdom? The Word of God plainly tells us in the book of Jeremiah that it is not in man, even man at his best, to direct his own steps. Ordering our lives requires the kind of wisdom that only comes from God. In this book, Wisdom's Winning Ways, you'll learn how to tap into God's wisdom to conquer clutter and confusion so that you can be a winner in Life!
