Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If one word evokes discomfort when spoken to Christ-followers and non-Christ-followers alike, it would be the word “evangelism.” For the Christ-follower, this word brings feelings of guilt, shame, and inadequacy. They know that, at some level, they should be participating in evangelistic activities, but they are not. My passion is to see Christ-followers intentionally engaging people in spiritual conversations. I wrote this book to educate and encourage Christ-followers in the beauty of sharing the love of Jesus with others. Speak Good News aims to change the less-than-favorable reputation associated with evangelism. This book will encourage and equip Christ-followers to confidently engage in spiritual conversations with individuals they experience life with. I do this by taking a historical look at evangelism, its purest meaning, and offering a fresh lens for the Church to view evangelism. I identify misconceptions and barriers that keep faithful Christ-followers from sharing the wonderful story of Jesus with others. It nudges believers into the shallow end of the “gospel pool” while encouraging them to engage in simple spiritual conversations about Jesus with others.

Book excerpt: Where is Jesus when we need him most? An influential pastor shares how despair can lead us to discover true hope and a deeper relationship with God, helping us emerge stronger and more joyful from times of crisis. “May this careful look at pain in the context of Jesus’s life open up avenues of discovery and healing.”—Mindy Caliguire, cofounder and president of Soul Care We all experience difficulties and hardships. But how can we learn to live richly in the midst of them? And even grow spiritually because of them? The answer is found in the hopeful humanity of Jesus. As the Son of God, Jesus wasn’t exempt from suffering, disappointment, or injustice. He lived in the real world as a real person. He wept for those he loved. He felt hunger and thirst. He endured temptation, betrayal, and ridicule. He died after being unjustly tortured. And somehow through it all, he embodied hope—by defeating death and opening a new world of life for us. In Echoing Hope, influential pastor and blogger Kurt Willems reveals how understanding the humanity of Jesus can radically transform our identity and empower us to step into our pain-filled world in a new way. Combining rich theological insight with personal stories and practices for response, he shows how we can overcome despair and encounter the beautiful potential of our lives.

Book excerpt: Oneness is hard to achieve. Let the kingdom unity of Scripture point the way. Today’s world is torn apart. Tension is everywhere. Brother is pitted against brother, sister against sister, citizen against citizen, even Christian against Christian. It’s so hard to find agreement—much less real harmony—in our polarized society. Can there be a way forward? Tony Evans knows how elusive unity can be. As a black man who’s also a leader in white evangelicalism, he understands how hard it can be to bring these worlds together. Yet he’s convinced that the gospel provides a way for Christians to find oneness despite the things that divide us. In the Word of God, we find a kingdom-based approach to matters of history, culture, the church, and social justice. In this book, you’ll get: A Biblical Look at Oneness A Historical View of the Black Church A Kingdom Vision for Societal Impact Although oneness is hard to achieve, the Christian must never stop striving. It’s a kingdom imperative. As Tony reminds us, “Glorifying God is our ultimate goal. Oneness exists to enable us to reach our goal.”

Book excerpt: The 2020 murder of George Floyd ignited a racial firestorm throughout America, provoking lament and grief over a long history of tragedy. The widespread protests gave way to a heated discussion about terms such as systemic racism, white privilege, and Critical Race Theory, all framed by the slogan “black lives matter.” The beginnings of a helpful dialogue on diversity became a heated battle, one that quickly spread to the church. Drawing on forty years of ministry experience, Tony Evans writes with a fearless and prophetic voice, probing to the heart of the issue and pointing to God’s Word as the solution. Kingdom Race Theology helps people and churches commit to restitution, reconciliation, and responsibility. His penetrating and practical ideas will help pastors and church leaders sort through the conflicting theories, finding sensible solutions in the form of individual and collective action plans. Christians can work together across racial lines to repair the damage done by a long history of racial injustice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why the Law of Moses was given To The children of Israel, especially if true salvation could only come through Christ? Have you ever been confused regarding the status of the Old Testament laws in the new covenant? If God's law commands that an adulteress be stoned, why did Jesus not condemn the woman caught in the act of adultery? These are only a few of the questions that haunt Christians that attempt to rectify the old covenant with the new. Jesus himself proclaimed that he did not come to destroy the law but to fulfill it. Follow Kurt, a seeker for truth, who finds himself immersed in a conversation with the Law of Moses in A Chance Encounter with the Law.

However, with faith that all Scripture is inspired, Kurt is answered with patience, insight, and wisdom.

Noted New Testament scholar Richard Bauckham challenges the prevailing assumption that the Jesus accounts circulated as "anonymous community traditions," asserting instead that they were transmitted in the names of the original eyewitnesses. In this expanded second edition Bauckham is adding a new preface, three substantial new chapters that respond to critics and clarify key points of his argument, and a comprehensive new bibliography.

Book excerpt: Based on a true story, this humorous retelling of the life of Jesus, focuses on the human nature of Jesus as he comes to grips with his divine nature. Was the wine at Cana a French vintage or was it from California? Did Jesus smoke cigars? Did the Magdalene compose the Serenity Prayer? Did Mary, the Mother of Jesus, confect the grilled cheese sandwich? Did Jesus have a dog? Did one of the Apostles have Cerebral Palsy? Did Thaddeus really pluck his eye out? Does G-d have a La-Z-Boy recliner-rocker throne?These and other life-shaking questions are addressed that cast a new spin on the Gospel stories. In fact, G-d himself recommends that you read this book. Jesus and the Holy Spirit also give the book two thumbs up.
