No amount of faith in a boring heaven can fill you with joy. You need imagination for the real thing. When was the last time you thought of the place Jesus is preparing for you and felt genuine anticipation? Face it, the theory of heaven just doesn’t seem to fit into our lives. Like cheap hotel art, it’s “nice”. Maybe you should fake a smile so God doesn’t feel bad about how uninspired you feel about your future. But it’s not your fault. The fix isn’t more faith in something lame. Your problem is a starved imagination.

Christianity is, by far, the most persecuted religion in the world today. The twentieth century saw more Christian martyrs than all the other centuries combined, yet this violence against Christians, in both word and deed, continues to this day.

What do their deaths demand?

"In the name of the Father, the Son, and ... the Holy Spirit." We pray in the name of all three, but how often do we live with an awareness of only the first two? As Jesus ascended into heaven, He promised to send the Holy Spirit—the Helper—so that we could be true and living witnesses for Christ.

The Qur’an issues a challenge: If it came from anyone other than Allah, its readers would find within it “much contradiction.” The Qur’an Paradox accepts that challenge. Using the Qur’an’s own words, its traditional order of revelation, and the earlier Scriptures it claims to confirm, Aynaz “Anni” Cyrus tests the text by the standard it establishes for itself. Across creation, human origin, free will, religious tolerance, salvation, sin, prophetic identity, and abrogation, she traces each claim through its later reversals, restrictions, and collapse.

Finding one's calling is not just about finding something we can do - it is about finding what we can't not do. "Let your life speak" is a time-honored Quaker admonition to live one's life as witness to the deepest truths one knows. But as Parker Palmer explains, those words can also mean "listen to your life, and let it tell you what your truth is."

Have you ever been asked by a stranger, “Are you saved?” Many Christians use this question as an opportunity to tell someone about Jesus. But a common response to that question might catch us off guard: “Saved from what?” Until this essential question can be answered, we won’t be able...

Christians know what Jesus Christ has done — but who is he? What is his deepest heart for his people, weary and faltering on their journey toward heaven? Jesus said he is "gentle and lowly in heart." This audiobook reflects on these words, opening up a neglected yet central truth about who he is for sinners and sufferers today.

Of all the books of the Bible, few have had more resonance for modern listeners than the Book of Job. For a world that over the past century has witnessed horrors the like of which could not have been imagined by earlier generations, Job’s cries of despair and incomprehension are all too...

How is it that in America the image of Jesus Christ has been used both to justify the atrocities of white supremacy and to inspire the righteousness of civil rights crusades? In The Color of Christ, Edward J. Blum and Paul Harvey weave a tapestry of American dreams and visions - from witch hunts to web pages, Harlem to Hollywood, slave cabins to South Park, Mormon revelations to Indian reservations - to show how Americans visually remade the Son of God time and again into a sacred symbol of their greatest aspirations, deepest terrors, and mightiest strivings for racial power and justice.
