Reconciling the existence of God and evil has been a long-standing conundrum in Christian theology, yet a philosophical approach—rather than a theological one—dominates the discussion. Turning to the Bible's grand storyline, Scott Christensen examines how sin, evil, corruption, and death fit into the broad outlines of redemptive history. He argues that God's ultimate end in creation is to magnify his glory to his image-bearers, most notably by defeating evil through the atoning work of Christ.

"Jesus' advice ruined what I planned to write." It was the recipe for a great book. John and his wife—both financial experts—had cut their income by 80% to pursue more meaningful lives. Within six years they had two kids, were debt-free, went on several vacations, and doubled their net worth. John was ready to share the biblical principles that made this possible. But he couldn't.

In Sabbath Gospel, G. P. Wagenfuhr and Amy J. Erickson invite us to consider Sabbath as much more than a cessation from work. Sabbath is a grand exodus from tiring economic regimes and the empty promise of self-actualization.

In A Beautiful Vision, pastor and author Mick R. Murray invites listeners to recover a restorative, biblical vision of human sexuality, one that transcends shame, fear, and confusion. Drawing from Scripture, theology, philosophy, and personal experience, Murray shows that God’s design for our bodies, desires, and relationships is not repressive but redemptive. In a culture where sexual identity and gender expression dominate the headlines, and where the church too often responds with silence or judgment, this book offers a third way: truth with tenderness, conviction with compassion.

"I have deep feelings for this guy, but he says I'm like a sister to him. What should I do?" "Why should a man still be expected to initiate romance?"

In Quest for Love, Elisabeth shares many of these letters and responds with sound, biblical guidance that will speak to your heart and your situation.

Was bedeutet es, Jesus konsequent nachzufolgen – auch wenn es etwas kostet?

“The call of the church is ptoxocracy, either as a witness and practitioner or as its ideal standard-bearer in the world.” To have a meaningful stake in the lives of the poor, argues M. C.
