Book Description
Take a journey from doubt to belief It can be hard to share your faith with others, especially when people can't agree on whether there is even any actual truth. With that in mind, Chad Meister has developed a simple, logical way for you to help others move past relativism to a place where Christian belief makes sense: the Apologetics Pyramid. In Building Belief, Meister leads you up each step of the pyramid, beginning where many find themselves today--doubting if anything is really true. From there, he powerfully builds a case for absolute truth, the existence of God, universal morals and values, the reliability and divine inspiration of the Bible, the resurrection of Christ, and ultimately, the good news that Jesus is the Son of God who offers salvation to the world. "Join Chad Meister in this concise, clear, and compelling book as he builds a persuasive case for the truth of Christianity."--Lee Strobel, author, The Case for Christ and The Case for Faith "An excellent book to lead earnest enquirers from doubt to conviction about the basic truths of the Christian faith."--Norman L. Geisler, dean, Southern Evangelical Seminary and Bible College "Chad Meister is a force to be reckoned with, and this delightful little book is a timely resource to be studied by Christians and given to non-Christians."--J. P. Moreland, distinguished professor of philosophy, Talbot School of Theology; author, Love Your God with All Your Mind "Building Belief is thoughtful, fresh, and full of personal and practical illustrations. Meister strikes just the right balance, providing a model for how apologetics ought to be done."--Paul Copan, Pledger Family Chair of Philosophy and Ethics, Palm Beach AtlanticUniversity "Meister offers both the tools and the method for making discussions with skeptics more fruitful."--Jay W. Richards, research fellow, Acton Institute; coauthor, The Privileged Planet

Book Description
WHAT MAKES A COMMUNITY EXTRAORDINARY? When people live in community moved by the gospel and marked by the Spirit, great things happen. They commit to one another. They grieve together, sing together, eat, pray, and play together. They love, serve, honor, encourage, and provide for each other gladly. And they live on mission together. Hearts are healed, walls come down, and outsiders come in. No competition. No pretense. No vain conceit. Just full hearts breaking bread and giving freely. It is nothing short of amazing. Most of us live in a shadow of what God intended for us. Life in Community calls us into the light. Reclaiming Scripture’s stunning vision of gospel-centered community, it inspires us to live in love unbounded. Read it, live it, and join the movement: Help unleash the power of extraordinary community. 6-Week group study included.

Book Description
Do you have a desire... To transfer Biblical values to your children and teens so that they embrace them as their own? To equip your young people to live their lives in relationship to God and others so that they maximize the opportunity for His blessing? In a day when large numbers of young adults are abandoning the faith altogether and many more are living their lives in accord with the values of the world instead of the Word of God, there is a great need for parents to understand the factors that will enable them to transfer Biblical values to their children. It is important for parents to employ these factors so that their children as young adults will embrace the values they were taught. This book seeks to isolate those factors. Additionally, if our young people are going to live out the values of the Word of God, they must know what those values are. If there is one portion of the Bible that is written specifically for young people, it is Proverbs. Its purpose is to equip them to navigate life in relationship to God and others in accordance with His values so that they maximize the opportunity for His blessing. This book seeks to provide a topical study of Proverbs that can be used by parents to build some of its vital values and skills into the hearts and lives of their children. David denHartog pastored a church in Iowa for five years before moving to Texas where he has pastored the same church for more than three decades. He is a graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary (Th.M.) and of Phoenix Seminary (D.Min.). He is married to his wife Beth and they have five adult children and an ever growing number of grandchildren.
