Having the Street Smarts to Talk about God

New book helps Christians to converse about tough issues.

Written by John Stonestreet and Kasey Leander | Monday, September 25, 2023

In ‘Street Smarts’, Koukl teaches the kinds of questions that are most effective while also providing sample conversations on the most common topics, which is another very important contribution of this book. In addition to answering the misconceptions about faith that people often have—from God’s existence to the divinity of Jesus—Street Smarts helps believers engage... Continue Reading

Cessationist: The Film

The stakes are high, which means we do well to deepen our understanding and sharpen our convictions.

Written by Tim Challies | Monday, September 25, 2023

Does ‘Cessationist’ offer a valid defense of its position? While admitting that I am by no means unbiased, I believe it does. Before it offers any substantial critique, it explains why there is solid evidence within Scripture that God meant for the extraordinary gifts of the Spirit to operate for a time, but then to...

What Qualifies As Evidence? Everything!

When skeptics say the case for Christianity is weak because it can’t be built with scientific, testable, physical, forensic evidence, they simply don’t know how criminal cases are tried every day in America.

Written by J. Warner Wallace | Friday, September 22, 2023

For more information about the nature of Biblical faith and a strategy for communicating the truth of Christianity, please read Forensic Faith: A Homicide Detective Makes the Case for a More Reasonable, Evidential Christian Faith. This book teaches readers four reasonable, evidential characteristics of Christianity and provides a strategy for sharing Christianity with others.    Last... Continue Reading

How C.S. Lewis Predicted the Forced “Pronoun” Push — and Showed Us How to Respond

The famous British author and Christian apologist C.S. Lewis never lived to see the days of “ze/zir” descend on Western civilization. But in his prescience, he articulated the stakes of speaking truthfully, even if the culture demands otherwise, in the book A Horse and His Boy.

Written by William Wolfe | Friday, September 22, 2023

Why should we, as Christians, talk “slaves’ and fools’ talk”? For that’s exactly what these twisted pronouns are: The talk of slaves to gender ideology and the utterances of fools who go along with it. Bree also gets at another important aspect of the debate — men who want to be referred to as “she/her” aren’t...

Is the Tide Turning on Religious Belief?

Despite the dour statistics about declining church attendance, religious faith seems to be experiencing a revival. What role did the New Atheists ironically play in it? And what is its future?

Written by Gene Edward Veith | Thursday, September 21, 2023

After tides ebb, they flow. Low tides are followed by high tides. This is the central metaphor in Justin Brierley’s new book, The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God. “In this book I will make a bold proposition—that Matthew Arnold’s long, withdrawing Sea of Faith is beginning to reach its farthest limit and that we...

The Neighborhood Church Returns: Making the Comeback a Reality

The Surprising Return of the Neighborhood Church, just released! What might it look like if such a comeback were to occur?

Written by Sam Rainer | Thursday, September 21, 2023

It’s time for the neighborhood church to make a comeback. The stigma of small churches is fading. Fostering is becoming more common. Pastors should feel free to leave the islands of their campuses and make friends. The opportunity to revitalize neighborhoods is as big as ever. The neighborhood church movement is primed for a relaunch.... Continue Reading

The Entanglements of Science and Religion

What we think about science and religion often says more about us—our views on what it means to be human and who gets to decide—than it does about science and religion.

Written by Jamie Boulding | Wednesday, September 20, 2023

Spencer’s book is based on deep historical insight and research, it is written with elegance and energy, and it achieves the rare feat of being scholarly and serious as well as accessible and engaging. It will be an important resource for anyone who wishes to understand the scientific and religious entanglements that have shaped, and... Continue Reading

Comprehending the Love of God

Is there anything grander than God and his love?

Written by Bill Muehlenberg | Tuesday, September 19, 2023

“Love cannot be satisfied. Once you know this Person and begin to love Him, you feel that all you have received is not enough, you want more and more. This is what Paul is praying for these Ephesians. He longs for them also to know Christ, because to know Him is to know His love.... Continue Reading

Five Lies of Our Anti-Christian Age Foreword

Don’t follow the great dragon; that’s what this book is about. He has already been defeated.

Written by Kevin DeYoung | Monday, September 18, 2023

We believe that if God is for us, no one can stand against us (8:31). We believe that we are more than conquerors through him who loved us (8:37) and that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us...

No True Christian: Part Two

For those who are redeemed, perhaps the greatest act of doing true good unto others is to call them to repentance from sin and point them to Jesus, to call upon Him.

Written by Don and Joy Veinot | Monday, September 18, 2023

We decided to answer the claims of Russell Moore and the Woke crowd by turning back a century in time to another person who fought this very same battle with liberals in his day. J. Gresham Machen’s book Christianity and Liberalism came out one hundred years ago in 1923, and his response to the out-of-context... Continue Reading
