Biblical Wisdom for Everyday Life: Ethical Answers to Cultural Questions offers a faithful and practical guide for navigating some of life’s most pressing moral and cultural dilemmas. Rooted in Scripture and shaped by the Christian tradition, this book is designed to help believers think clearly and live wisely in a complex world. Jesus taught that love for Him is shown through obedience—but obedience requires knowing what God has commanded.

In a moment when everyone is seeking to be “set apart” as something—successful, beautiful, talented, popular, skilled, knowledgeable, or blessed—being set apart as holy is often an overlooked (or even undesirable) pursuit. Even for believers who agree that holiness matters in the Christian life, we often feel more comfortable cultivating and assigning other godly attributes to ourselves—love, grace, mercy, justice, kindness, and so on. But holy? It is so…other.

Written in a style accessible to non-specialists, this book provides teachers, pastors, counselors, and general listeners with an ideal introduction to Christian ethics. It renews the topic of Christian ethics by showing listeners that faithful moral living is achieved through the daily practices of grace and godliness.

"Hope in Disarray" is a collection of 30 essays at the intersections of faith, race, gender, creation, and culture.

Rarely are human dilemmas out of the news. And what medical science can do and ought to do—or ought not to do—impinges on our personal lives, families and societies. John Wyatt examines the issues surrounding the beginning and end of life against the background of current medical-ethical thought. Writing out of a deep conviction that the Bible's view of our humanness points a way forward, he suggests how Christian healthcare professionals, churches and individuals can respond to today's challenges and opportunities.

Redeeming How We Talk explores what the Bible has to say about that central aspect of life and relationships - conversation. The Scriptures show us that words have remarkable power - to create, to bless, to encourage, to forgive. Imagine how we could spark change in our families, churches, and communities if we learned to use words like Jesus did. By weaving together theology, history, and philosophy, Ken Wytsma and A. J. Swoboda help us reclaim the holiness of human speech and the relevance of meaningful conversation in our culture today. 

Christ's friends were utterly transformed by His resurrection. Their friendship, their work, and even their meals together took on a new meaning and purpose. The same can happen to us today. Eugene Peterson, beloved pastor, scholar, and translator of The Message, takes you back to Jesus' time so you can experience the Resurrection through the eyes of biblical witnesses. You'll be a participant in the story, so its meaning and wonder can enliven your soul as never before.

All Christians read the Bible differently, pray differently, value their traditions differently, and give different weight to individual and corporate judgment. These differences are the basis of conflict. The question Christian ethics must answer, then, is, "What does the good life look like in the context of conflict?"

The problem isn’t sex. God designed sex; and sex is good. Sex is a powerful union that brings men and women together. But when sex is distorted by sin, the misuse of our sexuality can alienate us from one another, causing immense harm and pain. Enter pornography—the most prevalent...

You are not what you do. So often, in America, we define who we are by what we do. We introduce ourselves by our job titles. We ask, “What do you do?” to be polite in small talk. We define others by their occupation. But there are good reasons to connect what you do with your time...

We live in a society of broken homes. Having parents in the home doesn’t mean that parenting is actually happening. Parenting is a God-given task that ensures young children are protected and nurtured into maturity in the fear and admonition of the Lord. But America and the church faces a...

For 30 years Randy Alcorn has been encouraging people - young and old - to pursue the rewards of sexual purity. Too often we settle for a compromised Christianity that's just a baptized version of the world's sad existence, rather than the abundant life to which God calls us.

In a world of increasing moral relativism, there is one set of values that has not changed. In The Values of Jesus, pastor and storyteller David Crosby takes a look at the teachings of Jesus and shows us how to align our life’s values with what God holds important. What we value dictates how we spend our time, money, and energy and can distract us from or propel us toward a Christlike view in areas such as love, family, money, relationships, traditions, institutions, and more. 

In Resurrecting Justice, theologian Douglas Harink invites listeners to rediscover Romans as a treatise on justice. He traces Paul's thinking on this theme through a sequential reading of the book, finding in each passage facets of the gospel's primary claim - that God accomplishes justice in the death and resurrection of Jesus Messiah. By rendering forms of the Greek word dikaiosyne as "just" or "justice", Harink emphasizes the inseparability of personal, social, and political uprightness that was clear to Paul but is obscured in modern translations.

Drawing on over 130 interviews as well as numerous national surveys, Addicted to Lust tells us that, compared to other Americans, pornography shapes the lives of conservative Protestants in ways that are uniquely damaging to their mental health, spiritual lives, and intimate relationships. Perry demonstrates how certain pervasive beliefs within the conservative Protestant subculture unwittingly create a context in which those who use pornography are often overwhelmed with shame and discouragement, sometimes to the point of depression or withdrawal from faith altogether.

On the scale of stranger to bromance, where do your friendships land? As guys, we tend to get a bum rap when it comes to our ability to relate to other men. We talk work, sports, and buffalo wings, but struggle to move into meaningful conversation with our friends. Justin Erickson has identified seven kinds of friendships every man needs to thrive and grow as a Christian. Based on the biblical role models of men like David, Paul, and Timothy, these are the relationships that ultimately make you the man that God has called you to be. 

From the beginning of life to the end, every human life is precious. In this accessible audiobook, Wayne Grudem demonstrates that because humans were created in God’s image, life should be treasured and preserved at all stages.

Faith was never meant to be static—it is meant to flex, evolve, and transform. Yet many of us inherit beliefs that no longer align with who we are becoming. The Congruent Life offers a path through that tension, guiding listeners from dissonance to liberation. Through reflection, rhythm, and radical love, it reveals how congruent practices can transform confusion and fragmentation into peace, freedom, and wholeness. This is not a book about preserving the religion you were handed. It's about cultivating a faith that heals, liberates, and empowers.

In this updated and expanded edition, Life Issues, Medical Choices provides clear answers to difficult questions based upon fundamental principles to help concerned Catholics make morally sound choices for themselves and their loved ones.

In this book, Kevin W. Hector argues that we can understand Christianity as a set of practices designed to transform one’s way of perceiving and being in the world. Hector examines practices that reorient us to God (imitation, corporate singing, eating together, friendship, and like-mindedness), that transform our way of being in the world (prayer, wonder, laughter, lament, and vocation), and that reshape our way of being with others (benevolence, looking for the image of God in others, forgiveness, and activism).
