What Do the Five Points of Calvinism Really Mean? Many have heard of Reformed theology, but may not be certain what it is. Some references to it have been positive, some negative. It appears to be important, and they'd like to know more about it. But they want a full, understandable explanation, not a simplistic one. What Is Reformed Theology? is an accessible introduction to beliefs that have been immensely influential in the evangelical church. In this insightful book, R. C. Sproul walks readers through the foundations of the Reformed doctrine and explains how the Reformed belief is centered on God, based on God's Word, and committed to faith in Jesus Christ. Sproul explains the five points of Reformed theology and makes plain the reality of God's amazing grace.

Winning Souls Starts With Loving People Christian evangelism has too often focused on "winning souls" to the exclusion of meeting real, everyday needs. Yet Jesus' earthly ministry followed a different pattern: He reached for people on the margins. He touched people no one else would touch. He spoke hope to people consumed by despair. And as the Lord extended Himself in compassion to meet the needs of the sick, the lost, and the hopeless, people turned their hearts to Him. Love Like Jesus will help you follow Jesus' pattern for changing lives. You will learn the importance of placing your confidence in Him alone, of staying faithful through seasons of unfruitfulness, of facing your fears with courage, and much more. Most of all, you will catch a vision of God's unfathomable love for every person, and get the tools you need to share it with people in need of a Savior.

The earliest of the four Gospels, the book portrays Jesus as an enigmatic figure, struggling with enemies, his inner and external demons, and with his devoted but disconcerted disciples. Unlike other gospels, his parables are obscure, to be explained secretly to his followers. With an introduction by Nick Cave

DOES YOUR LIFE HAVE PURPOSE?Mine didn't. Although I had the American Dream pretty much all wrapped up by the time I was 30, my life was still completely pointless, meaningless, and empty. Before you open this book, you need to know that this is not a prosperity book, it's not a self-help book, and it's definitely not a religious book. This is a book about finding out just what our purpose for living is. And that purpose, is Jesus.Through my personal life story, I'll share with you very intimate details about how to find your real reason for walking this planet, which is ultimately found in a close relationship with Jesus Christ. Sound weird? It's really not. I'll show you.Through practical tools and heart-felt advice, I'll teach you that God is not interested in how "religious" you behave, or don't behave. Instead, He is interested in the shape of your heart, and just how much love and respect you have for Jesus.In these pages, I get into some pretty nasty stuff about my former life. Even as a "good man," I was still full of pride, selfishness, greed, addiction, frustration, and fear - ALL OF THAT GARBAGE - Christ wanted gone! He personally taught me how to get rid of it and I want to show you the same! How did He teach me this? Simple. By me, getting to know Him, personally, for myself. Once you truly get to know Jesus, it is absolutely impossible to NOT love Him.So no matter where you are at in life, I want you to know there IS hope! There IS a victorious, powerful, STRONG way of living, and it's found IN Jesus! I'm going to teach you that any temptation, distraction, discouragement, or tragedy can be used by God for GOOD! And, FOR YOUR PURPOSE! If you let Him, if you will come to know Jesus, personally...Thank you so much for joining me. Let's begin! -Matt McMillen

To Christians worldwide, the man Jesus of Nazareth is the centerpiece of history, the object of faith, hope, and worship. Even those who do not follow him admit the vast influence of his life. For anyone interested in knowing more about Jesus, study of the four biblical Gospels is essential. The second edition of Four Portraits, One Jesus has been updated throughout to meet the needs to today's students. It is a thorough yet accessible introduction to the four biblical Gospels and their subject, the life and person of Jesus. Like different artists rendering the same subject using different styles and points of view, the Gospels paint four highly distinctive portraits of the same remarkable Jesus. With clarity and insight, Mark Strauss illuminates these four books addressing the following important areas: First he addresses the nature, origin, methods for study, and historical, religious, and cultural backgrounds of the Gospels. He then moves on to closer study of each narrative and its contribution to our understanding of Jesus, investigating things such as plot, characters, and theme. Finally, he pulls it all together with a detailed examination of what the Gospels teach about Jesus' ministry, message, death, and resurrection, with excursions into the quest for the historical Jesus and the historical reliability of the Gospels. This textbook together with its workbook, video lectures, and laminated sheet gives students everything they need for a thorough and enriching study of Jesus and the Gospels.

A number of years ago I came to realize that most Christians I knew had misunderstood the message God had revealed to Jesus the Messiah (Isa al-Masih in Arabic). I desperately wanted to find out why Jesus said God had sent him. As I carefully read the Gospel (Injil in Arabic) with new eyes, I observed Jesus constantly spoke about the kingdom of God and welcomed people of all races and religions to be part of it. I also noticed that Jesus is primarily portrayed in the Gospel as God's Messiah-Servant-Prophet (Al-Masih- 'Abd- Al-Nabi in Arabic), titles also used for him in the Quran. This surprised me. Could a focus on understanding these titles for Jesus help build bridges of understanding between Muslims and Christians? This book shows how Christians have strayed from the message God revealed to Jesus. It shows how human rights and social justice are embedded in the message of Jesus, and cannot be optional add-ons. This book shows how actively doing good for our enemy (or, those we perceive to be our enemy) is integral to believing in Jesus. The book shows how Jesus was more concerned with how people treated others, than in how they performed their religious rituals. It explains why those in power opposed Jesus and why he at times deliberately provoked them by violating their laws. It shows how God used the sufferings of Jesus the Messiah to win a victory over evil and deliver us from fear. In short, this book shows how Jesus planted the seed for how we can join him in recreating our damaged world. What was it about the message God gave Jesus that caused those who heard him to spontaneously praise God, write poetry, sing and dance? What caused their communities to come alive and live in peace? What have we missed? Writing this book has been a hard but enriching journey. It is not easy to question your beliefs. Daring to questions some of what you have been taught, and being open to new ways of understanding, can cause stress within you and create conflict with those around you- even those closest to you. Nevertheless, the rewards of seeking for what it means to be fully human, alive to God and his purposes in the world, are worth it. Enjoy your journey. I still do.
