88368: Hell's Best Kept Secret Hell's Best Kept Secret
By Ray Comfort / Whitaker House Publishers

Why are so many unbelievers turning away from the message of the gospel? Doesn't the Bible tell us how to bring sinners to true repentence? If so, where have we missed it? The answer may surprise you. One hundred years ago, Satan buried the crucial key needed to unlock the believer's heart. Now Ray Comfort boldly breaks away from modern tradition and calls for a return to biblical evangelism. If you're experiencing evangelical frustration over lost souls, unrepentent sinners and backslidden "believers," then look no further. This radical approach could be the missing dimension needed to win our generation to Christ.

11586: The Lie: Evolution The Lie: Evolution
By Ken Ham / New Leaf Press (master Books)

The Bible prophetically warns that in the last days false teachers will introduce destructive lies among the people. Their purpose is to bring God's truth into disrepute and to exploit believers by telling them made-up and imagined stories (see 2 Peter 2:1-3). Such a lie is among us - that lie is evolution!

Today many laypeople, ministers and Christian educators are powerless in their presentation of the gospel. They have rejected Genesis, the foundation of biblical doctrine. They have believed the modern origins myth - evolution.

This book is for you if:
  • You believe that Genesis is not important to presenting the gospel
  • You believe that what you think about Genesis does not affect you personally
  • You believe that evolution can be made to fit the Bible
  • You are a witnessing Christian seeking to bring the gospel to this spiritually drifting world

    42199: The New Evidence That Demands a Verdict The New Evidence That Demands a Verdict
    By Josh McDowell / Thomas Nelson

    When Josh McDowell (More Than A Carpenter) was a pre-law student, he was challenged by a group of Christians to investigate the claims of Jesus from a purely intellectual standpoint. At the time, he felt supremely confident Christianity would fail such an examination, so he set out to prove that Christianity was a sham. Along the way, he discovered something else; he discovered Jesus.

    Evidence that Demands a Verdict may have started out as an attempt to prove Christianity intellectually false. What it has now become is something completely different. McDowell uncovered in his research the incredible resiliency of the Christian faith, and the strength of its intellectual claims. Thus, when he came to setting out his findings, he ended up creating one of the best Christian apologetic references available. And now he has made that reference work even better, revising it and updating it for the 21st century.

    345718: War of the Worldviews War of the Worldviews
    By Ken Ham / Answers In Genesis

    There are two competing worldviews in America today; one is based upon the infallibility of God's word, and the other upon a humanistic view of mankind. When we face the battles looming today, Christians need a rock solid foundation upon which to defend their faith; a foundation which evolutionary theory is destroying. How are we then to respond to the arguments for evolution? How do we explain to our children what their schools and universities are teaching isn't always reliable? Within these pages, you'll find the answers you need to fight the good fight; evolutionary arguments are dissected and explained, Christian 'compromise' positions elaborated upon, and a call for absolute biblical authority given.

    However, more than being merely informational, What Hollywood Believes is educational. By commenting on many of the stars' beliefs, Comfort provokingly stirs readers to examine their own beliefs against the most respected authority for spirituality, the Bible. This riveting book makes an excellent evangelistic gift.

    33571: A Dictionary of Early Christian Beliefs A Dictionary of Early Christian Beliefs
    By David W. Bercot, ed. / Hendrickson Publishers

    Interest in the ways of the early church has never been more intense. What did early Christians believe about the divinity of Christ? What did they think about resurrection? How did they regard John the Baptist? What were the beliefs of those who sat at the feet of Jesus' disciples? Now, for the first time, a unique dictionary has been developed to furnish ready answers to these questions and others like them. David W. Bercot has painstakingly combed the writings of these early Christian leaders and categorized the heart of their thinking into more than 700 theological, moral, and historical topics to create this book.

    Wonderfully suited for devotional or thematic study as well as sermon illustration, this resource offers a window into the world of the early church and affords a special opportunity to examine topically the thoughts of men like Clement of Rome, Ignatius, and Polycarp, who were students of the original apostles, as well as the thoughts of other great lights in the life of the early church such as Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, and Tertullian. For anyone interested in historic Christianity, this book cannot be overlooked. This book features:
    • Relevant comments on key Christian concepts from prominent figures such as Origen, Clement of Alexandria, Clement of Rome, and Hippolytus
    • Key biblical verses associated with each topic
    • Brief definitions of unfamiliar terms or concepts
    • A "Who's Who" of Ante-Nicene Christianity to put in context the ancient Christian writers
    • Discussion of more than 700 key theological, moral, and historical topics
    • Strategic cross-references to related topics
    • A topical index to the writings of the Ante-Nicene Fathers

    38691: Church History in Plain Language, Second Edition Church History in Plain Language, Second Edition
    By Bruce L. Shelley / Thomas Nelson

    Dr. Bruce Shelley makes church history come alive in this classic book that has become not only the first choice of many laypeople and church leaders but the standard text in many college classrooms over the nation. What separates this book from others is its clarity, both of language and organization. This book treats history as the story of people-their motivations, the issues they grapple with, the decisions they made--and the result that is history reads like a story almost as dramatic and moving as a novel. Yet there is no fiction here. The author is a respected scholar whose work is painstakingly researched and carefully crafted for historical accuracy. In this new edition of the classic text, Shelley explores contemporary phenomena such as the Religious Right, megachurches, and user-friendly worship services as well as some of the leading personalities behind these movements. On the cultural and political fronts, he points out the effects of mass media on the communication of the gospel worldwide, and the openness of socieites formerly closed to evangelical witness.
    282518: The End of Reason: A Response to the New Atheists The End of Reason: A Response to the New Atheists
    By Ravi Zacharias / Zondervan

    Ravi Zacharias has been defending the Gospel for many years, and with the rise of 'new atheism' he faces off against what some have termed 'big science' - the atheistic community's ham-fisted attempt to silence any dissent to naturalist evolution. The anti-Christian movement, promoting a sort of 'pop atheism' that usually attacks Christians themselves rather than the scientific theories of creationists, has many vocal proponents. Sam Harris, author of 'Letter to a Christian Nation', is specifically addressed in Ravi's book, with others dealt with obliquely, each taken to task for their errors. But this is not simply a reverse-attack on Harris or the others; Zacharias cuts to the core of the atheist problem and presents a case for truth resolving itself in a presentation of God in the person of Jesus Christ as the intelligence behind the universe, and the end (the culmination, not the cessation) of reason.
    065119: The Real Face of Atheism The Real Face of Atheism
    By Ravi Zacharias / Baker

Come along as he systematically examines atheistic positions on human nature, the meaning of life, morality, the "First Cause," death, and more. Insightful and thought-provoking reading! 185 pages, softcover from Baker.
    79422: Heaven Heaven
    By Randy Alcorn / Tyndale House

    As the years pass and we watch more and more of our family, friends and mentors pass away, it is only natural to ask questions about heaven. However, our understanding of heaven is often limited to a few half-forgotten Sunday school lessons and the insubstantial images provided by popular movies and T.V. Fortunately, in Heaven Randy Alcorn provides us with a thoroughly researched and biblically definitive description of heaven. As Alcorn addresses our most serious questions about heaven, including the nature of judgment, and answers a few of our less serious questions as well, including the accessibility of cafe mochas the sweet by and by, we will develop a deeper understanding of our eternal destination and will find the courage to strive for heaven while we're living on earth.

    • Lies about their marriage: If I submit to my husband, I will be miserable.
    • Lies about their emotions: I can't control my emotions.
    • Lies about their circumstances: I just can't take any more.
