• Where does evil come from?
• If there is a sovereign creator God, as Christian faith holds, is this God ultimately responsible for evil?
• Does God's sovereignty mean that God causes each instance of sin and suffering?
• How do Satan, his demons and hell fit into God's providential oversight of all creation and history?
• How does God interact with human intention and action?
• If people act freely, does God know in particular every human decision before the choice is made?

Have you ever done something so dumb you wince at the thought of it? Well, you're not alone. The Bible is full of characters who made some shockingly dumb moves. Here are a few examples:

• A guy who sold his right to his family's estate for a bowl of soup.
• The couple who had the pleasure of having no rules, no boundaries--except one . . . a rule they decided to break anyway.
• The guy who fell in love with a woman who clearly was doing her best to have him killed.

In Big Dummies of the Bible, bestselling author Stephen Miller shows readers some...

Fifteen years ago, Tony Campolo's 20 Hot Potatoes That Christians Are Afraid to Touch pushed, pulled, and prodded Christians into serious consideration of controversial but critical issues related to the Christian life. Campolo challenged his more than 150,000 readers to re-think their convictions (and prejudices) and to do something about them

Dubbed by Christianity Today as "the positive prophet" and "a ferocious critic of Christians left and right," Campolo lives up to his reputation in this latest book examining some of today's toughest questions and issues:...

Exciting, revolutionary power is available exclusively to you as a Christian . . .

It is the supernatural power:

• To transform human nature
• To be the salt of the earth, and the light of the world
• To bring about a dramatic but peaceful revolution in those around you
• To face any crisis

You cannot buy this extraordinary power, nor can you find it by searching the earth for it. As a Christian it resides in you already, an awesome gift from God that you have only to claim and use once you know and accept its Source.

Christians are powerful...

Everything we have we've been given. Even our very lives are a gift from God, given so we can live to give, not live to get. Yet it is our tendency in life to absorb, to take in without distribution resulting in a "souring" of all that is good and a separation from all that is intended.

In The Life You Were Born to Give, David McKinley helps readers shift their focus from getting all they can out of life to giving their lives away, for Christ. Guiding them through the book of Romans, the transformational message includes:

• A Life Delivered (Romans...

At some point, everyone contemplates the "meaning of life." All over the world, people are on a quest to find answers as they search for someone or something to believe in.

In Brian Houston's book, For This I Was Born, he says that to know the Cause of Christ is to understand why you were born, to know what you are living for, and to decide what you are prepared to die for.

If you do not know the meaning of life, he says, you will never live a life of meaning. Houston desires that each of his readers come to know the cause of Christ. His Cause, he says, is the key...

Though perhaps better known for political activism through his creation of the Moral Majority, the late Dr. Jerry Falwell's personal activities confirmed his passion for being a pastor and a Christian educator. Out of this desire to teach and lead, he wrote Building Dynamic Faith so that readers would know God better and see their lives radically changed for Him.

Divided into 31 chapters, Building Dynamic Faith is perfect for a month of daily readings, but it is more than simply a devotional. Readers will progress from a simple understanding of faith, to practicing...
