7 Things You Better Have Nailed Down Before All Hell Breaks Loose
Author: Robert Wolgemuth
Publisher: HarperChristian + ORM
ISBN: 1418573450
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 219
Book Description
Stephen Covey wrote, "The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing." For men and women searching for truth amid the noise and clutter, this principle could never be more crucial. And while the church is tossed about by the same uncertainty, Robert Wolgemuth's provocative 7 Things You Better Have Nailed Down Before All Hell Breaks Loose puts a stake in the ground and says, "Here's something you can count on, no matter what." In life you don't rise to the level of your circumstances; you fall to the level of your training. This strong exposition of the foundations of the Christian faith brings a calm, clarity, and confidence to train those who need something certain to claim. The seven things are: 1. God Is God; He Is the Creator-Holy, Sovereign, and Merciful 2. The Bible Is God's Word 3. Mankind Is Eternally Lost and in Need of a Savior 4. Jesus Christ Died to Redeem Mankind 5. Grace and Faith Are Gifts 6. Belief and Works Are One 7. The Church Is God's Idea

The Oracles of God... Or the Words of Men?
Author: Curtis Pillsbury
Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 1616634685
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
Why don't people believe the Bible like they used to? Do Christians themselves truly believe the Bible? Is the Word part true, part superstition? Is it fair to claim that the Bible is superior to other sacred writings? Curtis Pillsbury has encountered these controversial questions and more and has set out to answer them using biblical proof and personal experiences. If you have ever questioned Christianity, fear not. Curtis himself has battled similar doubts and has spent over twenty years disproving the myths. You will never again wonder, is the Bible The Oracles of God or the Words of Men? In a day in which postmodernism and humanism seek to dissolve absolute truth, Curtis Pillsbury has given us a tool to create a Christian worldview. The Oracles of God or the Words of Men? is a tool to combat New Age mumbo-jumbo and establish God's Word as an anchor for transformation and productivity. Curtis's work will help you wade through the minutia of philosophies combating real truth. Read this book as a key to your freedom. —Ron McIntosh, President of Ron McIntosh Ministries, Executive Director of Victory Bible Institute The Oracles of God or the Words of Men? will help secure for you a strong foundation in the Word of God and will strengthen your faith in the fact that God's Word is your final authority. With this revelation you can stand in the midst of any trial or temptation. This book will keep you in love with Jesus and his Word. —Terry Nance, author of God's Armorbearers

Perfect Madness
Author: Judith Warner
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 9781594481703
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
A lively and provocative look at the modern culture of motherhood and at the social, economic, and political forces that shaped current ideas about parenting What is wrong with this picture? That's the question Judith Warner asks in this national bestseller after taking a good, hard look at the world of modern parenting--at anxious women at work and at home and in bed with unhappy husbands. When Warner had her first child, she was living in Paris, where parents routinely left their children home, with state-subsidized nannies, to join friends in the evening for dinner or to go on dates with their husbands. When she returned to the States, she was stunned by the cultural differences she found toward how people think about effective parenting--in particular, assumptions about motherhood. None of the mothers she met seemed happy; instead, they worried about the possibility of not having the perfect child, panicking as each developmental benchmark approached. Combining close readings of mainstream magazines, TV shows, and pop culture with a thorough command of dominant ideas in recent psychological, social, and economic theory, Perfect Madness addresses our cultural assumptions, and examines the forces that have shaped them. Working in the tradition of classics like Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique and Christopher Lasch's The Culture of Narcissism, and with an awareness of a readership that turned recent hits like The Bitch in the House and Allison Pearson's I Don't Know How She Does It into bestsellers, Warner offers a context in which to understand parenting culture and the way we live, as well as ways of imagining alternatives--actual concrete changes--that might better our lives.
