  Bearing Witness : What The Church Can Learn From Early Abolitionists

  $27.99

  In an era when the label “evangelical” is hotly contested and often entangled with political agendas, Daniel Lee Hill’s Bearing Witness offers a timely reexamination of what it means to live out the gospel in public life.

  Drawing on the rich legacy of nineteenth-century abolitionists David Ruggles, Maria W. Stewart, and William Still, Hill constructs a compelling evangelical framework for public witness, anchored in Scripture and the practice of lament and burden-bearing. Hill challenges evangelicals to rediscover their roots in a tradition that speaks powerfully to contemporary debates over church, culture, and the call to social justice.

  Bearing Witness will be an indispensable guide for professors, students, pastors, and laypeople committed to a faith that speaks to the public square.

  Finding Our Way Home

  $19.99 Original price was: $19.99.$11.97Current price is: $11.97.

  In an age when Christianity has been corrupted and co-opted by cultural forces and personal agendas, pastor and theologian Glenn Packiam shows how an ancient Creed can save the modern church–and might just save your faith.

  The Church today has lost its way. We’ve pursued the wrong priorities, put our hope in personalities, and elevated popularity over spiritual maturity. And it’s not just the Church that’s lost; we are too. As culture wars rage and competing voices argue, many Christians are left asking a basic question, What’s a Christian, anyway?

  But there’s hope. The church has been here before, and our spiritual ancestors crafted a powerful resource to help us find our way: the Nicene Creed. Readers who take this journey with Packiam will:

  *discover how the Creed–born in an ancient time of controversy, confusion, and disunity much like today–is not just a statement of beliefs, but a rope to lead us home;

  *experience an invitation into the mystery and wonder of God through these ancient words; and

  *rediscover a path to becoming faithful witnesses to the way of Jesus as we learn to live into the Creed’s beautiful story, stunning hope, and powerful vision of what a Christian is.

  The world yearns for Christ’s joy, peace, and hope, but the gospel is only believable if Christians live like it’s true. Join this adventure into the heart of authentic Christianity, and rediscover for yourself the fresh, timeless power of our Creed, returning to the living heart of what it means to be a Christian.

  Crisis Of Civil Law

  $22.99

  How should Christians think about law?

  In every age, this is one of the most difficult questions faced by followers of Christ. Within the modern church, there is little unity on how Scripture addresses issues like gun control, abortion, and disobedience of an unjust law. In The Crisis of Civil Law, legal scholar Benjamin B. Saunders draws from Scripture and Christian tradition to provide valuable guidance on contemporary legal questions and the role of civil government. We can gain greater clarity by wisely applying the moral law found in Scripture–as well as the universal standards of the natural law–to the changing circumstances of human societies.

  The Crisis of Civil Law includes detailed discussion of the biblical material on law as well as practical case studies that contextualize scriptural principles in modern Western society.

  How Should We Then Die

  $18.99

  “My times are in thy hand.”

  *Explains why physician-assisted death is attractive
  *Makes a case for the value of life and wrongness of killing
  *Argues from general revelation and Scripture
  *Helps Christians undercut the logic of euthanasia

  As more people accept the practice of physician-assisted death, Christians must decide whether to embrace or oppose it. Is it ethical for physicians to assist patients in hastening their own death? Should Christians who are facing death accept the offer of an assisted death?

  In How Should We then Die?, physician Ewan Goligher draws from general revelation and Scripture to persuade and equip Christians to oppose physician-assisted death. Euthanasia presumes what it is like to be dead. But for Christians, death is not the end. Christ Jesus has destroyed death and brought life and immortality through the gospel.

  New Fight For Life

  $17.99

  The battle over the constitutionality of Roe v. Wade may be over, but now a bigger fight lies ahead.

  For over half a century, pro-life advocates have fought to protect the sanctity of human life. Now that the decision the pro-life community has been waiting and praying for has finally become a reality, a question remains: Now what? How do we continue to stand for life for everyone who bears the image of God-from womb to tomb? And if abortion disproportionately impacts the poor and the marginalized, specifically Black Americans, why should we seize this new opportunity to make right what has gone terribly wrong?

  Benjamin Watson, author of Under Our Skin and a former NFL player who now serves as VP of strategic relationships with Human Coalition, a pro-life organization based in Dallas, wants to galvanize the church and the pro-life movement in this new era. In The New Fight for Life, Watson

  *leads us into a new understanding of pro-life advocacy,

  *shows how we can move past political debate and culture wars, and

  *envisions a new path forward that promotes life by committing to human flourishing and holistic justice.

  We can create a culture where abortion is both unthinkable and unnecessary. How? By relentlessly pursuing a more just world-for everyone.

  Myth And Meaning In Jordan Peterson

  $18.99

  Popular philosopher Jordan Peterson has captured the imagination of Western world.

  For some, Peterson represents all that is wrong with patriarchal culture; for others, he is the Canadian academic prophet who has come to save civilization from dizzying confusion. Regardless of how one feels about him, his influence in North America–and beyond–is difficult to deny.

  While the “Peterson phenomenon” has motivated numerous articles and responses, much of what has been written is either excessively fawning or overly critical. Little has been produced that explores Peterson’s thought–especially his immensely popular 12 Rules for Life–within the context of his overall context and scholarly output. How is one to understand the ascendency of Jordan Peterson and why he’s become so popular? Does his earlier Maps of Meaning shed light on how one might understand his worldwide bestseller, 12 Rules for Life?In Myth and Meaning in Jordan Peterson, scholars across various disciplines explore various aspects of Jordan Peterson’s thought from a Christian perspective. Both critical and charitable, sober-minded and generous, this collection of ten essays is a key resource for those looking to faithfully engage with Jordan Peterson’s thought.

  Jesus And The Disinherited (Reprinted)

  $16.00

  Beacon Press Publication

  In this classic theological treatise, the acclaimed theologian and religious leader Howard Thurman (1900-1981) demonstrates how the gospel may be read as a manual of resistance for the poor and disenfranchised. Jesus is a partner in the pain of the oppressed and the example of His life offers a solution to ending the descent into moral nihilism. Hatred does not empower–it decays. Only through self-love and love of one another can God’s justice prevail.
