After centuries of intellectual evolution, from the worship of nature to the rise of monotheism, from Augustine to Nietzsche, Western culture has now canonized a materialist worldview that insists life is an accident, and meaning is a myth. And yet, as author Grant J. Hallstrom shows, even self-proclaimed atheists exhibit religious fervour in causes like climate justice and social activism. The problem? We’ve rejected the very roots that once gave us a sense of self, morality, and destiny.

In this engaging and deeply personal book, award-winning scholar and writer Liz Bucar embarks on a quest to get to the heart of “spiritual but not religious” activities from detox diets to sound baths.

There is so much goodness in all religions. Organized religion has gotten a bad rap over the years. Religion is not about having approval from others. Religion openly shares God-given wisdom for everything that is good. It does not mean that everything or everyone associated with religion is the epitome of good. Religion has been shunned. Worse, it has been rejected. Over time, we have allowed ourselves to be part and parcel of the good of religion being canceled. Now, our children and grandchildren are being excluded from solid religious influences.

Islam will be the world’s largest religion by 2075. Why? Derek P. Gilbert, author of the groundbreaking books The Great Inception and Last Clash of the Titans, argues that Islam is too big and too successful to be the work of just one spirit. Tracing the pagan religions of the nations around ancient Israel, Gilbert makes the bold claim that the religion of Muhammad is actually a collaboration by the old gods of Mesopotamia, a desperate partnership of fallen angels who were caught off-guard by the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Most books on Christianity cater to those who see the Bible as authoritative. But there's an unnoticed group who, while skeptical of traditional beliefs, still find deep meaning in church. Robert K. C. Forman, a retired professor of religion and hospital chaplain, is one of them. Though he’s often moved to tears during services, he’s “never believed a word.” Curious, Forman interviewed many dozens of others like him across denominations and countries. The result is, Christianity Reimagined: A Mystical Approach for Doubters and the Dubious.

People are hungry for hope. They want to understand our human condition—its origin, nature, purpose, and destiny. The Christian faith offers hope for individuals and the entire universe, grounded in absolute truth. But how can we know that Christianity is true? And how can Christians confidently present their beliefs in the face of doubts and competing views? In this comprehensive text, Douglas Groothuis makes a clear and rigorous case for Christian theism.

People today encounter a dizzying array of religious options.
