God has some folks lined up to hear my story. Is it you? Pain took me on a journey out of this world then God healed my pain and transformed it into purpose. Have you had a pain so deep and piercing that you didn't know if you would come back from it? Or even if you wanted to? By the Grace of God I'm still here to share my story with you! While I was in the wilderness it felt as if I were in a life-time movie. "This woman that I knew to be so full of laughter, joy and love. I suddenly felt fear for her. What is so clear now, what she needed was bigger than my kind words, thoughts or encouragement. What and who she needed was God!" Michele Cruse, PhD

When Guilt Wages War, Fight for Grace Christian women repeatedly fall into the trap of self-condemnation. They choose to berate themselves in their weakness rather than fight through their pride to receive the strength only God can provide. Cheryl Brodersen, ministry leader and popular speaker, knows it’s time for women to understand the daily battle they’re facing—to pinpoint their enemies, claim their God-given weapons, and examine the true prize awaiting them. God wants His daughters to live moment by moment in His victory, but first they have to see what’s at stake when they go their own way. The truth about grace is simpler—and deeper—than you may realize. Discover how this life-saving, life-sustaining resource can be your motivation and means for living in freedom today.

In a world of heightened Middle East tensions, Christians are asking, "What is to become of Israel? Does God still have a plan for the people he once called 'the apple of my eye'?" With refreshing clarity Ian Heard proposes that God has provided, in that self-described Pharisee and zealot Saul of Tarsus, a "type"--indeed, an archetype, for his people. In his turning, under the sovereign hand of the Almighty, Saul became Paul, the great missionary-evangelist to the gentile world. In addition he became pastor, theologian, apologist, and defender of the faith. In that event and life, God has given us, in embryo, a beautiful illustration, or "type," of a far larger and greater turning for Israel. On scriptural foundations and integrity, culminating in an exciting scenario, the author shows how some of the baffling prophecies of Zechariah and others may come to a profound conclusion.

The renowned scholar, Anglican bishop, and bestselling author widely considered to be the heir to C. S. Lewis contemplates the central event at the heart of the Christian faith—Jesus’ crucifixion—arguing that the Protestant Reformation did not go far enough in transforming our understanding of its meaning. In The Day the Revolution Began, N. T. Wright once again challenges commonly held Christian beliefs as he did in his acclaimed Surprised by Hope. Demonstrating the rigorous intellect and breathtaking knowledge that have long defined his work, Wright argues that Jesus’ death on the cross was not only to absolve us of our sins; it was actually the beginning of a revolution commissioning the Christian faithful to a new vocation—a royal priesthood responsible for restoring and reconciling all of God’s creation. Wright argues that Jesus’ crucifixion must be understood within the much larger story of God’s purposes to bring heaven and earth together. The Day the Revolution Began offers a grand picture of Jesus’ sacrifice and its full significance for the Christian faith, inspiring believers with a renewed sense of mission, purpose, and hope, and reminding them of the crucial role the Christian faith must play in protecting and shaping the future of the world.

From places like John Piper's den, Al Mohler's office, and Jonathan Edwards's college, Christianity Today journalist Collin Hansen investigates what makes today's young Calvinists tick. Church-growth strategies and charismatic worship have fueled the bulk of evangelical growth in America for decades. While baby boomers have flocked to churches that did not look or sound like church, it seems these churches do not so broadly capture the passions of today's twenty-something evangelicals. In fact, a desire for transcendence and tradition among young evangelicals has contributed to a Reformed resurgence. For nearly two years, Christianity Today journalist Collin Hansen visited the chief schools, churches, and conferences of this growing movement. He sought to describe its members and ask its leading pastors and theologians about the causes and implications of the Calvinist resurgence. The result, Young, Restless, Reformed, shows common threads in their diverse testimonies and suggests what tomorrow's church might look like when these young evangelicals become pastors or professors.
