"Like never before, ideas and information travel at the speed of a click, a send, or a share. How do we separate "good news" from "fake news?" Information from misinformation? Sound teaching from false teaching? And how do we unravel this little book's confusing texts about women's role in the church and the home? Nearly two thousand years ago, the Apostle Paul faced similar problems. False teachers threatened the faith of new believers living in a city known for Artemis worship, magic, and the occult. Paul wrote the letter we call 1 Timothy to instruct his young protâegâe to create order out of the chaos of the day. Because Scripture "is alive and active" (Hebrews 4:12), his ancient words hold timeless truths for us today. Join Sue Edwards and Rebecca Carrell on a journey to combat chaos in an upside-down world"--

"The book that bears the prophet Jeremiah's name does not merely document the past but looks forward to God's future and final work in Christ. Perhaps more than any book of the Old Testament, Jeremiah attests to the process of its own writing, transmission, and editing, and these internal clues confirm its original purpose as a book for all time and for every nation. Michael Shepherd carefully lays out Jeremiah's far-reaching message with passage-by-passage translation and up-to-date commentary. The themes of judgment and restoration certainly concern Israel's historical judgment at the hands of the Babylonians and their subsequent return, but also the eschatological judgment of all worldly opposition to God and a final restoration and flourishing in the land of the covenant." -- back cover

"The four knitters of the Heavenly Hugs Prayer Shawl Ministry are stuck . . . in a stagnant church, a comfortable mold of ministry, and the points of pain that hold each of them back. Until, that is, Father Pete shakes them up by insisting that they meet not at church but in public at the local mall (for heaven's sake) where anything can happen-this while the Lady's Chapel where they normally meet is painted. The church needs more than a face-lift, however. The congregation is dwindling to the point that the bishop has charged Father Pete with either reviving Hope of Glory or closing it by year's end"--

To read the Greek text of James is to face a rugged style and brief phrasing that match the fervency of the letter's meaning. The book of James powerfully exhorts the earliest Christian believers to faithful living. Biblical Greek experts Herbert W. Bateman IV and William C. Varner lay out the linguistic and grammatical features unique to James--such as his specialized vocabulary and prolific use of imperatives--to show how the book's many strong statements connect to one another in this masterwork on living according to the teachings of Jesus.

Faithful retelling of the Christmas story

Drawing from Scripture, social sciences, and history, David J. Hesselgrave tackles the most pressing issues facing missionaries today. The author and contributors show how theological issues have real impact on missions, and they present arguments on both sides of the fifteen subjects of debate while also offering their own biblically informed perspectives on the subjects. Despite rapid global changes, Hesselgrave holds that much of traditional theory, practice, and theology is still valid, if not essential, for the future of Christian missions. Current and prospective missionaries, pastors, seminary students, missions committee members, and laypeople interested in world Christianity will all benefit from the discussions covered in this book, including: Sovereignty and free will: An impossible mix or a perfect match? Common ground and enemy territory: How should we approach adherents of other faiths? Business as mission: When is it mission and when is it not? Harvest missions and pioneer missions: Discipling the masses or reaching to the margins? This updated and expanded edition includes five more questions along with new applications and reflections on the ten questions presented in the first edition. --

What if the loving relationships of the Trinity are the ultimate, objective source for living morally? Adam Lloyd Johnson injects a fresh yet eternal reality into the thriving debate over the basis of moral absolutes. While postmodernism's moral relativism once temporarily disrupted the footing of classic moral theories like natural law and divine command, many nontheistic philosophers assert that morality must rest on something real and objective. Divine Love Theory proposes a grounding for morality not only in the creator God but as revealed in the Christian Scriptures--Father, Son, and Spirit eternally loving one another. Johnson contends that the Trinity provides a remarkably convincing foundation for making moral judgments. One leading atheistic proposal, godless normative realism, finds many deficiencies in theistic and Christian theories, yet Johnson shows how godless normative realism is susceptible to similar errors. He then demonstrates how the loving relationships of the Trinity as outlined in historic Christian theology resolve many of the weakest points in both theistic and atheistic moral theories.

"After a tailspin in her late teens, Lauren Anderson's life is finally back on track. Her battle with bulimia is under control, her career is taking off, and she's surrounded by a loving family. Then a chance meeting with Carter Douglas, her first love and the man who broke her heart, leads to old feelings returning with new strength. And suddenly her well-balanced world is thrown off kilter. Now a TV meteorologist, Carter is determined to make amends with Lauren. After all, she still owns his heart.
