Cultural Christians in the Early Church, which aims to be both historical and practical, argues that cultural Christians were the rule, rather than the exception, in the early church. Using different categories of sins as its organizing principle, the book considers the challenge of culture to the earliest converts to Christianity, as they struggled to live on mission in the Greco-Roman cultural milieu of the Roman Empire.

In this crazy world it can seem like God is far off or indifferent. His failure to act makes no sense. Why do some people prosper and other people suffer? By unpacking each chapter of Habakkuk, Miller helps us see that when life is shaking you like a leaf in a storm, you can hold on to the unshakeable God who controls the storm. Listen in on a perplexed prophet’s intense interchange with God himself. In the face of injustice and violence, Habakkuk cries out, “WHY?” Journey with the prophet • from confusion to confidence • from frustration-driven questions to faith-filled ...

For most of my life I have been telling Bible stories to children. I’ve told the historical accounts of God’s people and the miracles the LORD worked time and time again. I love God’s Word. I love each and every historical account. I could tell them all day long and in my sleep! They are the most riveting and inspiring stories ever…and most importantly, they are the foundation of our confidence of the Lord’s sovereignty, his great power, and his great love for humanity.

Cultural conceptions of Jesus today present a man who is virtually unrecognizable. He is not known, above all, for whom he loves or how he loves. In contrast to this misconfiguration, the Jesus of the Gospels is far more beautiful, and loves more broadly and deeply, than many have imagined. The humble, suffering love of Jesus is uncanny, radiantly beautiful, and in the end transformative. There is nothing like it across the religious landscape or current ideological offerings. In Jesus the Stranger, Ken Collins invites the listener to see Jesus in a new way.

In the summer of 1883, Moses Wilhelm Shapira - archaeological treasure hunter and denizen of Jerusalem's bustling marketplace - arrived unannounced in London claiming to have discovered the world's oldest Bible scroll. When news of the discovery leaked to the excited English press, Shapira became a household name. But before the British Museum could acquire them, Shapira's nemesis, French archaeologist Charles Clermont-Ganneau, denounced his find as a fraud.

How should Christians conduct themselves in an increasingly secular society? Jesus answered this troubling question on the eve of His death with some of the most poignant, powerful teachings in His entire ministry. During those hours, Jesus taught His apostles and, consequently, all believers throughout history, How to Survive in a World of Unbelievers.

The Rapture is coming! One day Jesus will appear in the sky for the entire world to see and all Christians will be instantly changed and caught up to meet the Lord in the clouds. As a Christian, even though we cannot know the day or hour of the Lord’s return, God does want us to know when, in the sequence of end times events, that The Rapture will occur. There are many end times theories and ideas being promoted in the world today. How do you know what to believe? God’s word is truth and gives us the answers that we are looking for. The Rapture Theorem presents a Biblical proof that ...

In a world that cries out for peace, which will prevail - Jesus or Jihad? Bible-believing Christians wonder: What does Islamic extremism mean in terms of Bible prophecy? Do today's turbulent events have prophetic significance? In Jesus, Jihad and Peace, Dr. Michael Youssef provides answers that are concise and biblically accurate, explaining how trends within Judaism, Christianity, and Islam fit into prophetic history.

The purpose of this 10-day devotional is to shine a light on the lesser-known characters of the Bible and spotlight how their faith created a ripple effect. Through their obedience, they not only changed the course of their lives but history as we know it. I like to think most of us can relate well (if not more) to characters in the Bible who lived behind the scenes. These men and women weren't the wealthiest. They weren't hailed chosen leaders of their nations, famous athletes or commerce leaders. And most certainly, they didn't get a book of the Bible named after them. They were mediocre ...

Do you constantly compare yourself with others? On social media, in your neighborhood, at church, or in the school drop-off lane, do you push yourself to prove that you measure up...and then feel ashamed when you don’t? Measuring yourself against others isn’t healthy. And it isn’t God’s plan. In fact, the way of Jesus is completely upside down from this measure-up world. He invites us to follow him and be restored to freedom, confidence, and joy.

Reverend Richard A. Morrisey (born 1858) was an African-American biblical scholar, a Doctor of Divinity, and the pastor of a number of churches in the South and in Pennsylvania. In 1915, he published Bible History of the Negro, with the hope of inspiring a greater desire to read the Bible which he describes as giving "the Negro a place among the foremost races of the world, in wealth, in education, in honor and in religion, a history to which every member of the race may point with great pride and profound gratitude to Almighty God today”.

Unbeknownst to many, the new catechism published in 1992 is far from the only catechism. St. Peter Canisius wrote the first catechism in 1555. Less than a decade later in 1562, the Roman Catechism was commissioned by the Fathers of the Council of Trent, who saw the need for an authoritative explanation of the Faith for the universal Church. Prepared under St. Charles Borromeo’s supervision and issued by Pope St. Pius V in 1566, it remains the most authoritative catechism in print. For modern readers however, the Roman Catechism is rather verbose and hard to read. To remedy this, over one ...

A nineteenth century French priest discovers something in his mountain village at the foot of The Pyrenees which enables him to amass and spend a fortune of millions of pounds. The tale seems to begin with buried treasure and then turns into an unprecedented historical detective story - a modern Grail quest leading back through cryptically coded parchments, secret societies, the Knights Templar, the Cathar heretics of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries and a dynasty of obscure French kings deposed more than 1,300 years ago.
