Though the title mentions letters of the alphabet, this book is not a children's book. No! It is a book for everyone because we all can learn more about Jesus. Names of Jesus from A to Z was written to give readers a better understanding of God the Father and Jesus, His beloved son. In the Baltimore Catechism #1, the question "Why did God make me?" is answered with the response, "God made me to know Him, to love Him, to serve Him in this world, and to be happy with Him forever in Heaven." It is our responsibility to know God. Scripture tells us in Peter 3:18, "But grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." Knowledge leads to love. Through Names of Jesus from A to Z we have a simple way to learn about God. The names and titles given to Jesus in Scripture provide a good description of God's love and mercy for mankind. Joseph G.

The 1960's brought Seth and Payton all they'd fantasized about—perfect friendships, a successful four-man band, and most importantly, each other. Together they embarked on a tour that brought them stimulating highs and shattering lows, and they prospered and suffered in one another's arms. The two men carried each other and carried a group that created both a history and a future for rock. But at some point their music blurred with the news of their love and the world was faced with the choice to embrace its heroes or revert back to its deep-rooted prejudices.

Move over Boomers, Xers, and Millennials; there's a new generation--making up more than 25 percent of the US population--that represents a seismic cultural shift. Born approximately between 1993 and 2012, Generation Z is the first truly post-Christian generation, and they are poised to challenge every church to rethink its role in light of a rapidly changing culture. From the award-winning author of The Rise of the Nones comes this enlightening introduction to the youngest generation. James Emery White explains who this generation is, how it came to be, and the impact it is likely to have on the nation and the faith. Then he reintroduces us to the ancient countercultural model of the early church, arguing that this is the model Christian leaders must adopt and adapt if we are to reach members of Generation Z with the gospel. He helps readers rethink evangelistic and apologetic methods, cultivate a culture of invitation, and communicate with this connected generation where they are. Pastors, ministry leaders, youth workers, and parents will find this an essential and hopeful resource.

Have you ever asked yourself, who is Jesus? I am pretty sure if you asked every Christian who Jesus is to them, you would get many different answers. Everyone has their own reasons for thinking who Jesus is to them. This book provides you a way to share everything that you have learned about Jesus. Your journey through this book will also open new concepts of who Jesus is to you, and it will help others understand as well. The idea of this book first originated in the front row at my church on a typical Sunday morning. The pastor was giving his lecture on "Who Is Jesus to you?" When I heard that, I sat back thinking what a great concept that is. Something that seemed so simple resulted in an in-depth and thought-provoking study suitable for any everyday Christian. The process of travelling through this book will help you explore the depths of your faith. I first had to make sure that this concept was not already published. I exhausted the research and was ready to tackle this adventure. Once my decision was made, it was time to order a dictionary since I did not own one at the time. I went through and highlighted every word that could be used relating to Jesus. Next step was writing the definition and my own example sentences. The example sentence had to include that word and its association with Jesus. That, my friend, is the idea of this book. Take the word that is given and incorporate the name Jesus with that word in a sentence. You will have a better understanding on who he is and on what he has done in your life. This book is for you and you alone to grasp a deeper personal relationship with him over time. This does not have to be done in a hurry. I encourage you to see the word and write down a true meaning about Jesus and how he interacts in your life. My purpose for this book is for you, as the reader, to have a better understanding of Jesus on a personal level. Even as Christians, sometimes we can have doubts about our faith. We have to endure spiritual battles every day. So I do hope you enjoy this and that you pass on to others what you might learn. You never know whose life you will affect.

Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The “paradigm-influencing” book (Christianity Today) that is fundamentally transforming our understanding of white evangelicalism in America. Jesus and John Wayne is a sweeping, revisionist history of the last seventy-five years of white evangelicalism, revealing how evangelicals have worked to replace the Jesus of the Gospels with an idol of rugged masculinity and Christian nationalism—or in the words of one modern chaplain, with “a spiritual badass.” As acclaimed scholar Kristin Du Mez explains, the key to understanding this transformation is to recognize the centrality of popular culture in contemporary American evangelicalism. Many of today’s evangelicals might not be theologically astute, but they know their VeggieTales, they’ve read John Eldredge’s Wild at Heart, and they learned about purity before they learned about sex—and they have a silver ring to prove it. Evangelical books, films, music, clothing, and merchandise shape the beliefs of millions. And evangelical culture is teeming with muscular heroes—mythical warriors and rugged soldiers, men like Oliver North, Ronald Reagan, Mel Gibson, and the Duck Dynasty clan, who assert white masculine power in defense of “Christian America.” Chief among these evangelical legends is John Wayne, an icon of a lost time when men were uncowed by political correctness, unafraid to tell it like it was, and did what needed to be done. Challenging the commonly held assumption that the “moral majority” backed Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020 for purely pragmatic reasons, Du Mez reveals that Trump in fact represented the fulfillment, rather than the betrayal, of white evangelicals’ most deeply held values: patriarchy, authoritarian rule, aggressive foreign policy, fear of Islam, ambivalence toward #MeToo, and opposition to Black Lives Matter and the LGBTQ community. A much-needed reexamination of perhaps the most influential subculture in this country, Jesus and John Wayne shows that, far from adhering to biblical principles, modern white evangelicals have remade their faith, with enduring consequences for all Americans.
