The story begins with a simple grain of rice: one grain on the first square of a chessboard, two on the second, four on the third, and so on. By the 64th square, the number is staggering—over 18 quintillion grains, more than the world could produce. This ancient tale of exponential growth captures the same principle that drives multiplying groups: small, consistent actions that, over time, result in extraordinary impact. In Multiplying Groups, Josh Hunt explores how this principle has fueled some of the most dynamic movements in church history. Drawing from the groundbreaking work of ...

We live in a world that has become secularized, marked by ideology and partisanship. In such a world, how are we supposed to know what is right and wrong?

In Hitler, God, and the Bible, international evangelist and bestselling author Ray Comfort exposes Adolf Hitler's theology and abuse of religion as a means to seize political power and ultimately instigate World War II and genocide.

This fascinating study mines the depths of Hitler's beliefs and convincingly argues that without Hitler's misuse of Christianity the Third Reich would not have had its legendary rise, resulting in the deaths of more than six million Jews.

He concludes by answering common questions people raise about church government.

When they had gone a little further they sounded again and found it fifteen fathoms. Then fearing lest they should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four ...

Paul Sparks, Tim Soerens, and Dwight J. Friesen have seen—in cities, suburbs, and small towns all over North America—how powerful the gospel can be when it takes root in the context of a place, at the intersection of geography, demography, economy, and culture. This is not a new idea—the concept of a parish is as old as Paul's letters to the various communities of the ancient church. But in an age of dislocation and disengagement, the notion of a church that knows its place and gives itself to where it finds itself is like a breath of fresh air, like a sign of new life.
