What is God like? A punishing judge? A doting grandfather? A deadbeat dad? A vengeful warrior? 'Believers' and atheists alike typically carry and finally reject the toxic images of God in their own hearts and minds. Even the Christian gospel has repeatedly lapsed into a vision of God where the wrathful King must be appeased by his victim Son. How do such 'good cop/bad cop' distortions of the divine arise and come to dominate churches and cultures?

Satan's most dangerous lies aren't found in obvious attacks on Christianity. They're hiding in your church's traditions, worship services, and the practices you've never questioned. In Deceived: Exposing Satan's Lies to the Church, Lew exposes eleven critical deceptions that have infiltrated modern Christianity across all denominations. Drawing from over 20 years of theological study and a journey from cultural religion to authentic faith, he reveals how the enemy doesn't just destroy the church from the outside, he corrupts it from within.

“Keep your heart” (Proverbs 4:23). “Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling” (Philippians 2:12). “Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). Scripture beckons Christians toward obedience and maturity, but many modern approaches to spiritual formation are less than biblical. In A Heart Aflame for God, Matthew C. Bingham studies God-ordained spiritual practices modeled by the 16th- and 17th-century Reformers.

We live in an age defined by disruption—artificial intelligence, digital tribalism, decentralization. In our post-truth culture too many leaders cling to outdated models, unsure how to engage a world that has already moved on. Is this the end—or the beginning of something new? Terry Parkman, DMin, recognizes the opportunity within the chaos. With today’s cultural, technological, and spiritual paradigms shifting faster than ever, this moment demands more than a few tweaks. It demands transformation.

Most Christian parents share a silent fear: When my child leaves home, will their faith leave them? In a culture of viral deconstruction, "just have faith" isn’t enough. If we don’t give our teenagers a map of what they believe and why, the world will happily provide a different one.

Many Christians believe deeply, yet struggle to explain what they believe or how the pieces of faith fit together. When hard questions come, or when life becomes painful or confusing, that uncertainty can quietly weaken confidence. Systematic theology may sound academic, but its purpose is simple: to gather what the whole Bible teaches about a subject and understand it clearly, faithfully, and in context. Systematic Theology for Beginners 5-in-1 was written for listeners who want clarity without complexity.

What does Jesus say and do within the narrative worlds of the New Testament gospels that, through the ages, enabled innumerable gory horrors and immense systemic violence to be perpetrated with his presumed permission? That is the question driving this book. Its compound title, Jesusviolence, simultaneously denotes: first, the violence inflicted on the gospel Jesuses in their narrative worlds; second, the violence enacted by the gospel Jesuses in their narrative worlds; and third, certain of the violence enacted in Jesus's name in our histories and worlds.

As far back as the beginning of time and within every major culture of the ancient world, the astonishingly consistent story is told of gods who descended from heaven and materialized in bodies of flesh. From Rome to Greece and before that, to Egypt, Persia, Assyria, Babylonia, and Sumer the earliest records of civilization tell of the era when powerful beings known to the Hebrews as Watchers and in the book of Genesis as the b'nai ha Elohim ('sons of God') mingled themselves with humans, giving birth to part-celestial, part-terrestrial hybrids known as 'Nephilim.'

The global movement of mystical-miracle enthusiasts have put a modern face on historical heresies. Men and women posing as prophets and apostles make millions preying on the sick, poor, and emotionally fragile. Behind a veil of glamour, many self-proclaimed pastors mask their spiritual abuse with claims of special power from the Holy Spirit. Defining Deception pulls back the curtain to reveal the truth behind this lucrative industry.

After thirty years building a technology company and fifty years as an evangelical churchman, Jonathan Bentley could no longer reconcile his faith with the God he'd inherited — unchanging, all-controlling, untouchable. So he did something he couldn't fully explain. He walked 120 miles through Italy following the Way of Saint Francis, from Florence to Assisi to Rome. On the trail, accompanied by a mysterious Italian guide named Franco who asked questions Bentley couldn't answer, something unexpected happened. The old certainties fell away — and what replaced them was better.

The tell-tale signs of the impending collapse of Western civilization are all around us: out-of-control national debt; corruption at every level of governmental bureaucracy; every major city suffering from rampant crime and lawlessness; general breakdown of Western education systems; and open borders allowing a tsunami of illegal drugs and human trafficking to flood our nations. Everywhere we look, there is an existential danger just waiting to upend centuries of civilization-building.
