If Charles Spurgeon was the Prince of Preachers, one might say that J. C. Ryle was the Prince of Theology. Not as catchy of a title perhaps, but it’s true. While he is widely known for his book Holiness, his sermons on faith are equally as powerful, and practical. John Charles Ryle, widely known as J.C. Ryle, was a prominent figure in the 19th-century Anglican Church, renowned for his unwavering commitment to evangelical principles and his influential role as a bishop, pastor, and writer.

Critical theory and its expression in fields such as critical race theory, critical pedagogy, and queer theory are having a profound impact on our culture. Contemporary critical theory's ideas about race, class, gender, identity, and justice have dramatically shaped how people think, act, and view one another—in Christian and secular spheres alike. In Critical Dilemma, authors Neil Shenvi and Pat Sawyer illuminate the origins and influences of contemporary critical theory, considering it in the light of clear reason and biblical orthodoxy.

Peter exhorts us to be sober minded as the end of all things draws near; rather than stocking up to survive the zombie apocalypse or trying to escape the madness of this world, Scripture tells us to be disciplined for prayer and intensely love each other. As evidence of the end of the world crowds our vision, we are to serve each other, being hospitable in word and deed; we are to speak the Word of God to all people. All things must be done in the strength of God and not our own strength – and all must be done to glorify the Father and the Son and the Spirit.

In this stirring systematic theology of atonement, Owen Strachan turns our gaze to the biblical Jesus—the greater David, a mighty king who comes in the power of God to save sinners and destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). The true Jesus is the most fascinating subject in all history: he is Lamb and Lion, gentle and ferocious, divine yet a humble servant. All these graces bear down on one moment in time: the cross. The Warrior Savior brings together strands of doctrine that are too often separated, notably penal substitutionary atonement and Christus Victor.

Within this book are simple, no-nonsense, biblical answers that will help you to understand what it is to be one of God's warriors in these last days.

Cleon Skousen, who taught the Book of Mormon at Brigham Young University for many years.

Distraction isn't a new problem. We're also not the first to complain about how hard it is to concentrate. Early Christian monks beat us to it. They had given up everything to focus on God, yet they still struggled to keep the demons of distraction at bay. But rather than surrender to the meandering of their minds, they developed powerful strategies to improve their attention and engagement. How to Focus is an inviting collection of their strikingly relatable insights and advice—frank, funny, sympathetic, and psychologically sophisticated.

Reports of near-death experiences (NDEs) are flooding the media with books, articles and interviews. People describe hovering over their bodies, details of their surgeries, talking with deceased relatives, and reviewing their lives in vivid detail, often while their brains should be incapable of producing rational thought or memories.

Historical Christianity -- The Ancient Communal Faith is not merely another theology book but is the book you've been waiting for to cut through all the platitudes and self-serving egotism you have experienced when trying to understand the history of the Christian Faith.

Many people today cast doubt on the promises God gives his church in Bible prophecy, as predicted by Scripture itself: “Scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires. They will say, ‘Where is the promise of his coming?’” (2 Peter 3:3-4). Bible Prophecy Under Siege provides a thorough survey of the misunderstandings and misguided thinking people sometimes have about the last days.

Jesus told his followers that the entirety of the Old Testament’s law is encapsulated in the commands to love God and to love their neighbors as themselves. In Reforming Criminal Justice: A Christian Proposal, Matthew T. Martens argues that love of neighbor must be the animating force for true reformation of the criminal justice system, obligating us to seek the best for both the criminally victimized and the criminally accused.

Repentance is not optional. It is not left to our choice whether or not we will repent, but it is an indispensable command. God has enacted a law in the High Court of heaven that no sinner will be saved except the repenting sinner, and he will not break his own law. No one can willfully continue in sin and expect to be covered by the blood of Christ. Even if all the angels stood before God and begged for the life of an unrepenting person, God would not grant it.

Western Christianity's long-standing support of Israel has, perhaps unintentionally, nurtured a prejudice against Arab people—the descendants of Abraham's first son, Ishmael. Author Tony Maalouf contends that this bias differs dramatically from the biblical portrayal of Ishmael and the nations that have sprung from him. With meticulous research and theological astuteness, Maalouf surfaces the positive portrayal of the Arab people in ancient and prophetic history, clearly showing that the Israeli-Arab conflict is a recent development in history.

In 1975, Dr. James Moody introduced us to the enigmatic world of the “near-death experience” (NDE), where individuals touch the spiritual realm during or near the brink of death. But these remarkable encounters aren’t limited to religious believers alone; they affect us all, transcending boundaries of race, creed, and culture, weaving a puzzling tapestry of commonalities and contradictions.

Using Open and Relational Theology, Unblaming God presents alternative in- terpretations to four Old Testament stories—Noah and the Flood, God “telling” Abraham to sacrifice Isaac, Canaanite genocide, and the book of Job. These new interpretations better reflect God as love, not as a God of control.

What happens when we sidestep the notions of hierarchy and verticality in how we think about God, the world, and all things theological? How does emphasizing the expansiveness and breadth of God affect how we read/listen to the Bible and engage with topics such as salvation and the church?

The modern world doesn't acknowledge but is nevertheless haunted by spirits—angels, demons, and saints. In our time, many yearn to break free of the prison of a flat, secular materialism, to see and to know reality as it truly is. What is this spiritual reality like? How do we engage with it well? How do we permeate everyday life with spiritual presence?

This book is a pure inspiration from the Holy Spirit. I was preparing for a mother's day event we had in the ministry on Sunday 5/14/23 and as usual I didn't want it to be a drive-through event. I wanted God to make a lasting impact in the lives of these moms we intended to help with free diapers and wipes. So I was led to write a short prayer which they could use to prophesy destiny over their children. As I began to write, the Holy Spirit gave me more words and it kept flowing and flowing and I couldn't stop until I received the last sentence of this prayer handbook.
