Stealing From God
$11.66Add to cartIf you think atheists have reason, evidence, and science on their side, think again! Award-winning author Dr. Frank Turek (I Don’t Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist) will show you how atheists steal reason, evidence, science, and other arguments from God in trying to make their case for atheism. If that sounds contradictory, it’s because it is! Atheists can’t make their case without appealing to realities only theism can explain. In an engaging and memorable way, Stealing from God exposes these intellectual crimes atheists are committing and then provides four powerful reasons for why Christianity is true.
Truth Matters : Confident Faith In A Confusing World
$8.69Add to cartIn an interview with Christianity Today in 2012, Ed Stetzer shared that according to LifeWay research among young adults who had attended church regularly for at least a year in high school, 70% stop attending regularly for at least a year between ages 18-22. However, 35% of these had returned to attending twice a month or more by the time they were surveyed for the study. This means that about 4 out of 10 kids leave the church and NEVER RETURN.
Here is how leading experts describe our church kids today: They are unarmed and incapable of defending their faith. They possess a faith that cannot withstand the scrutiny of trials or intellectual questions. They have a shallow belief system. They lack a robust faith. They haven’t learned how to think. They are embarrassingly ignorant of our faith.
Truth in a Culture of Doubt is written directly to this audience, arming them with well-reasoned responses to the accusations that are most likely to appear in their lives, either as upcoming lecture notes and test questions or as inner qualms and questions. Things like: What gives the Bible any authority or credibility? Where is God in a world full of suffering? Why should Christianity be any more believable than any other religious system? And many, many more.
Easy to read yet loaded with meat and substance, this book is a level-headed reaction to those who equate Christian faith with blind faith, even those whose subtle or stated goal is to separate students from their religious traditions. Readers will discover the kind of historical information and thinking skills that build a sturdy backbone of confidence in high schoolers and young adults, making them able to defend by reasoned faith what the Bible claims as truth.
Loosely organized around the theological skepticism of New York Times bestselling author (and southern college educator) Bart Ehrman, this jam-packed counterclaim is a book that parents will want to buy for their kids, a book that youth and student leaders will want to work through one-on-one and in discipleship groups-a book that could prove a lifesaver for young minds and hearts everywhere.
Can We Still Believe The Bible (Reprinted)
$23.00Add to cartChallenges to the reliability of Scripture are perennial and have frequently been addressed. However, some of these challenges are noticeably more common today, and the topic is currently of particular interest among evangelicals
.
In this volume, highly regarded biblical scholar Craig Blomberg offers an accessible and nuanced argument for the Bible’s reliability in response to the extreme views about Scripture and its authority articulated by both sides of the debate. He believes that a careful analysis of the relevant evidence shows we have reason to be more confident in the Bible than ever before. As he traces his own academic and spiritual journey, Blomberg sketches out the case for confidence in the Bible in spite of various challenges to the trustworthiness of Scripture, offering a positive, informed, and defensible approach.Case For A Creator
$11.99Add to cartA Journalist Investigates Scientific Evidence That Points Toward God ‘My road to atheism was paved by science…but, ironically, so was my later journey to God.’—Lee Strobel
During his academic years, Lee Strobel became convinced that God was outmoded, a belief that colored his ensuing career as an award-winning journalist at the Chicago Tribune. Science had made the idea of a Creator irrelevant—or so Strobel thought. But today science is pointing in a different direction. In recent years, a diverse and impressive body of research has increasingly supported the conclusion that the universe was intelligently designed. At the same time, Darwinism has faltered in the face of concrete facts and hard reason. Has science discovered God? At the very least, it’s giving faith an immense boost as new findings emerge about the incredible complexity of our universe. Join Strobel as he reexamines the theories that once led him away from God. Through his compelling and highly readable account, you’ll encounter the mind-stretching discoveries from cosmology, cellular biology, DNA research, astronomy, physics, and human consciousness that present astonishing evidence in The Case for a Creator.
Strange Fire : The Danger Of Offending The Holy Spirit With Counterfeit Wor
$16.19Add to cartDr. John MacArthur teaches about the Holy Spirit and reveals how some parts of the Charismatic movement dishonor God.
When Nadab and Abihu offered a strange fire to the Lord (Leviticus 10:1-3), when the Pharisees attributed the Spirit’s work to Satan (Matthew 12:22-37), and when Ananias and Sapphira lied to the Holy Spirit (Acts 5:1-6), each was an affront that brought severe consequences even unto death. The Bible is clear that affronting the Holy Spirit is no laughing matter. Yet millions do it every day.
The Charismatic movement, with more than half a billion members worldwide, is the fastest growing religious movement in the world. It boldly plasters the Holy Spirit’s name on unbiblical worship like barking, jumping, laughing, trance-like states, extra biblical revelation, incomprehensible speech, inaccurate prophecies, and ineffective healings. To the misguided many, these are the works of the Holy Spirit, but they are not from God at all.
Strange Fire offers a biblical message to make right what has been wrong, help believers discern true worship, and free those who have been swept up in false worship. With thorough exegesis, historical context of the Charismatic movement, and pastoral guidance, this book reclaims the true power and import of the Holy Spirit for evangelicals and rebuffs those in the Charismatic movement who tempt God’s wrath with strange fire.

Global Flood : Unlocking Earths Geologic History
$13.99Read moreFor some, the thought of a worldwide flood is ludicrous. But for serious scientists who research the various formations of the earth and the catastrophic processes that shaped the world we see around us today, the evidence of a global flood is indisputable. The Global Flood presents that evidence in a way that clearly demonstrates why the biblical account of the Flood matters to all who want to understand and communicate the truth with confidence. The Global Flood helps to meet a great need today. It is comprehensive and aimed at those who are not experts in the earth sciences. Now the Christian world has no excuse-if they ever had any-for adding millions and billions of years to earth history. Color illustrations throughout.

Defenders Guide For Lifes Toughest Questions
$9.99Add to cartRay Comfort has collected some of the toughest questions people will face in defending their faith, and offers sound biblical responses. Each issue is one that has been raised by genuine atheists. When faced with a world trying to twist and confuse your understanding of biblical truth, could you answer these candid challenges? If God exists, why didn’t He kill Hitler before he killed six million Jews? The Bible not only condones slavery, it encourages it! Evolution scientifically disproves the Bible. The God of the Old Testament ordered Israel to commit genocide. The Old Testament doesn’t even mention Hell. It’s mythology, invented by Christianity to rule by fear. How come God never heals amputees?
With the influx of new atheism, multitudes of professing Christian youth are going to college and leaving their faith. This is because they are not equipped to give an answer to every man that asks the reason for believing in a bronze age book of fables, especially in the light of what is said to be the scientific nature of Darwinian evolution.
The Internet has given the average skeptic the ability to cut and paste the cream of anti-Christian atheistic arguments, and become an instant Richard Dawkins clone, who can eloquently stump the average believer with seemingly tough questions. However, even the toughest of questions has an answer. This book will place that answer in your hands and confirm to you that the foundation of the Christian faith is as solid as a rock.
