What if salvation isn’t limited to the elect? In Hope Beyond the Elect, Jonathan Ramachandran offers a bold, thought-provoking exploration of a long-overlooked question in biblical theology: Is there any hope of salvation for those not among the elect?

"A country boy from Kentucky, a farm girl from Alabama—just ordinary people serving an extraordinary God." In 1958, Eugene and Ellamae Elder "tied the knot" and dove headfirst into full-time ministry. For the next twenty-six years, they faithfully served in churches and missions from Arizona to Mississippi to New Mexico with "Gene" as a pastor and Ellamae as a Bible teacher. But in 1986, God called the couple to their most challenging assignment yet: South Africa, a country caught in the throes of Apartheid and social unrest.

It was John Wesley who coined the phrase “agree to disagree” in a memorial sermon at the death of George Whitefield in 1770. Since that time, Wesley’s theological descendants have often seemed to disagree more than agree. Nevertheless, author Kevin Slimp believes most United Methodists aren’t as disagreeable as they might seem at first glance. In What’s Next: Twenty-Two United Methodist Leaders Discuss the Future of the Church, Slimp continues the conversation he initiated in his 2019 best-selling book, Where Do We Go From Here? Honest Responses From Twenty-Four United Methodist ...

God has instructed me to share with you how to become spiritually mature. We will look at five elements that must be present in the Christian's life in order to become a mature believer. First, we are called to live a life of faith, pleasing God. We are also called to expect God to come through and deliver what we believe Him for; we must have hope, a confident expectation in God. In addition to this, we must have agape love to go along with our faith and hope. Equally important, we are called to have patience and to be steadfast and secure until we receive the manifestation of our answer ...

The story of five best-selling novels beloved by evangelicals, the book industry they built, and the collective imagination they shaped. Who are evangelicals? And what is evangelicalism? Those attempting to answer these questions usually speak in terms of political and theological stances. But those stances emerge from an evangelical world with its own institutions - institutions that shape imagination as much as they shape ideology.

How do I know I have been forgiven? What if I am not perfect? Does God forgive terrible things I have done to others? What if I keep sinning? Is there forgiveness for my addictions?

I Am A Christian: Authentic Accounts of Christian Martyrdom and Persecution from the Ancient Sources aims to remedy this deficiency by providing a collection of the earliest and most trustworthy eye-witness accounts from Roman antiquity. The works collected in this little book are ...

When Jesus sent 70 disciples on ahead of him, part of their mission was to heal the sick. In fact, they were supposed to heal the sick before they preached the Gospel. Best-selling author Mike Aquilina calls this command the healing imperative. And it's an imperative that ushered in the world of modern medicine. In The Healing Imperative: The Early Church and the Invention of Medicine as We Know It, Aquilina reconstructs the fascinating history of a uniquely Christian institution: the hospital.

The early Church faced its share of villains - persecutors like Nero and Julian, heretics like Marcion and Arius. And what good were they? Plenty, say the Church fathers. The threat of persecution made Christians strong and bold. As noted author Mike Aquilina demonstrates in Villains of the Early Church: And How They Made Us Better Christians, the menace of heresy made Christians smarter - and deepened their knowledge of the divine mysteries. The villains of the ancient world proved the mettle of heroes like Peter and Paul, Irenaeus and Athanasius.
