Book excerpt: If God is good, why do bad things happen? Is God in total control of life on earth? Does everything happen for a divine reason? Does God punish us? Is God testing us? What about the judgment of God? What about Job's suffering and Paul's thorn? When does God answer prayer? Isn't it time to get the right answers about God and eliminate those big, nagging question marks? Yes, it is time. In God, Why? Chas Stevenson presents powerful, precise, scriptural logic that eradicates popular spiritual myths and flawed teaching that has misled and confused people about God's character and God's good will. You're about to make a delightful discovery of Bible truths that will clear the hazy image of God and bring the reality of who he is and how he works into plain sight. If you have a personal relationship with God already, God, Why? will bring relief to your soul, strengthen your faith, and empower you for life. If you aren't sure about God, it will resolve the spiritual inconsistencies that may have obstructed your view of God. And for everyone, God, Why? will end the confusion by accurately answering the tough questions. At last, a solid explanation of why things happen that will leave you happy...with hope and certainty about God Almighty!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With two in seven American families affected by disability, the body of Christ has a great opportunity for ministry. This new anthology uniquely points the way, training churches, caregivers, pastors, and counselors to compassionately respond. The book's contributors—ranging from Joni Eareckson Tada and others living with disabilities, to seminary professors, ministry leaders, and medical professionals—do more than offer a biblical perspective on suffering and disability; they draw from very personal experiences to explore Christians' responsibility toward those who suffer. The volume addresses various disabilities and age-related challenges, end-of-life issues, global suffering, and other concerns—all the while reminding readers that as they seek to help the hurting, they will be ministered to in return. This unprecedented work, which includes a foreword by Randy Alcorn, belongs in the hands of every Christian worker and caring individual who is seeking a real-world, biblical perspective on suffering.

Book excerpt: We live in an age of skepticism. Our society places such faith in empirical reason, historical progress, and heartfelt emotion that it’s easy to wonder: Why should anyone believe in Christianity? What role can faith and religion play in our modern lives? In this thoughtful and inspiring new book, pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller invites skeptics to consider that Christianity is more relevant now than ever. As human beings, we cannot live without meaning, satisfaction, freedom, identity, justice, and hope. Christianity provides us with unsurpassed resources to meet these needs. Written for both the ardent believer and the skeptic, Making Sense of God shines a light on the profound value and importance of Christianity in our lives.

Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller people can believe in—by "a pioneer of the new urban Christians" (Christianity Today) and the "C.S. Lewis for the 21st century" (Newsweek). Timothy Keller, the founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, addresses the frequent doubts that skeptics, and even ardent believers, have about religion. Using literature, philosophy, real-life conversations, and potent reasoning, Keller explains how the belief in a Christian God is, in fact, a sound and rational one. To true believers he offers a solid platform on which to stand their ground against the backlash to religion created by the Age of Skepticism. And to skeptics, atheists, and agnostics, he provides a challenging argument for pursuing the reason for God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neal Randall Steinberg was born on August 28, 1986. He died on May 26, 2013. This is the story of his life, as told by his father, Dr. Mark Steinberg. As seen through his father's eyes, Neal's story is filled with joy and accomplishments, pride and deep love, sorrow and tragedy. The worth of a life is not measured by its longevity, for we all pass away like flowers in a field. And death ends a physical life, not a relationship. When God Takes Away tells the touching story of Neal Steinberg-his brilliance and loneliness, his family and those to whom he mattered, his development as a young star with so much promise, and, ultimately his decline into drug addiction. It is the story of a father's profound love for his son, the close bond they shared despite conflicts, and the helplessness of losing a child. More than the personal story of a family and its tragedies, When God Takes Away is a handbook for living with the realities of loss, a universal experience that everyone must endure. Revealing the depth of his personal despair and speaking from his decades of professional experience as a clinical neuropsychologist, Dr. Steinberg candidly discloses how loss affects our most core emotional and spiritual foundations. He bares his soul to connect with the reader's soul and share how losses reflect our capacities to attach emotionally with other beings and how to let go when it is time to do so. When God Takes Away is a compassionate and uplifting guide to dealing with the inevitability of loss and its integration into what really matters in your life. Steinberg tackles the difficult issues of mortality and relationship loss, as well as the seldom addressed realities of losing body functions, possessions, opportunities, and innocence. How each of us accepts and copes with loss reflects a developmental underpinning of how we learned to form emotional attachments and how we deal with trauma. Steinberg explores these truths with meaningful and practical explanations, bridging the psychological impact of loss with emotional comfort and coping tools. Living is intertwined with losing. How can we face loss without succumbing to weakness, hopelessness, and a losing attitude? When God Takes Away is a beacon in the darkness. This book shows how to cultivate and exercise determination, perseverance, and hope while maintaining an identity and security that neither resides in nor depends upon the gifts and possessions that are, in reality, temporary. If you are ready to give up your hurt and the stubbornness of sorrow, this book will light the path toward living with loss and surrender.
