We have forgotten what it means to be human. American men and women are feeling the despair of a counterfeit culture, one where polarization has replaced conversation, pornography is chosen over true intimacy, and marriage and family are postponed indefinitely. The resulting isolation has forced us to confront the truth: individualism and worldly systems cannot take the place of God's design for humanity.

El mundo espiritual es real, activo y determina lo que sucede en la tierra. Pero solo aquellos que aprenden a depender del Espíritu Santo pueden discernirlo y operar en él con autoridad.

Everyday our Christian faith is attacked and watered down. Those who are zealous for the faith are few in number or choose to stay silent. Many young people are leaving the faith of their childhood to chase the dream of this world. If we look carefully at the Bible, we find that God gives us hope through an ancient prayer. This prayer unlocks the door to forgiveness and God’s favor in our lives. The origin of this prayer goes back to Solomon and the dedication of a Temple in Jerusalem. Most often, however, the key ingredient is left out–Facing Jerusalem.

There was a time when Christians pioneered the future-from business to church, mathematics to justice reform. Along the way, that redemptive, adaptive movement began to gild in gold the victories of the past, leaving us change averse and frozen in time. But ready or not, the invitation is for kingdom leaders to reclaim their calling to innovate. Weaving together stories with surprising twists, studies with striking conclusions, and spellbinding cultural analysis, Doug Paul unlocks the five phases of kingdom innovation.

We often view authority as something oppressive, stifling, even fearful. And sometimes—perhaps too often—those impressions bear out in reality. We live in an era of overstepped boundaries and abuse in many fields of life, so that authority has become the enemy. We may also have a limited idea of what authority means. Even with legitimate authority, we may believe that only people who reach a certain “level” in life can exercise leadership, not thinking we could ever be called to a place of authority ourselves. In Understanding the Purpose and Power of Authority, best-selling author Dr.

How do we make sense of the world's different religions? In today's globalized society, religion is deeply intertwined with every issue we see on the news. But talking about multiple religions can be contentious. Are different faiths compatible somehow? And how can we know whether one religion is more true than another? In this creative thought experiment, Peter Kreeft invites us to encounter dialogues on the world's great faiths.

Explorers Lewis and Clark had to adapt. While they had prepared to find a waterway to the Pacific Ocean, instead they found themselves in the Rocky Mountains.

Drawing from his extensive experience as a pastor and consultant, Tod Bolsinger brings decades of expertise in guiding churches and organizations through uncharted territory.

Audiolibro de Juan Carlos de la Cruz sobre la Biografía de Charles Spurgeon, su vida ministerial y los sucesos más remarcados de sus más de cuatro décadas. Escribir una biografía es una tarea compleja para intentar dibujar en unas pocas hojas con palabras la vida de alguien, y tarea complicada cuando hay poca información documental y testimonial del biografiado. Pero analizar la vida de un personaje del cual existe tanta información, como el caso de Carlos H. Spurgeon, probablemente complique más la situación.

Biblical womanhood - the belief that God designed women to be submissive wives, virtuous mothers, and joyful homemakers - pervades North American Christianity. From choices about careers to roles in local churches to relationship dynamics, this belief shapes the everyday lives of evangelical women.

Compassionately explaining what true religion is and isn't, Scougal shares biblical practices that lead to real spiritual transformation. In The Life of God in the Soul of Man, Scougal cuts through false ideas about religion and demonstrates how to pursue true unity with God.
