  Faithfully Different : Regaining Biblical Clarity In A Secular Culture

  $17.99

  Welcome to Your Place in a Worldview Minority

  In an increasingly secular society, your biblical worldview now places you in a shrinking minority at odds with the dominant culture. Your desire to be faithful to God’s Word will be met with increasing pressures on what you believe, how you think, and how you live out your faith–yet it’s also a unique cultural moment in which opportunities abound to shine Christ’s light into a darkened world.

  Faithfully Different will help you regain biblical clarity in the haze of today’s secularism so you can live out your faith with conviction, discernment, and courage. This book will enable you to…

  *identify and respond biblically to secular pressures that are commonly challenging Bible-believing Christians

  *recommit yourself to living out God’s Word while learning to engage graciously with a world that rejects and resents biblical truth

  *defend your heart from the world’s misguided influences and live as a positive witness for the Lord

  When your identity is in Jesus, there’s no doubt you’ll look different than the world, and there’s no doubt it will often be hard. But the payoff for faithful endurance will be everlasting. Faithfully Different will give you the wisdom and encouragement you need to believe, think, and live biblically no matter what today’s shifting society upholds as truth.

  Not A Chance (Revised)

  $18.99

  Despite claiming unbelief in God or any higher power that may have designed or created the world and all that is in it, modern scientists often write and speak of chance as some kind of being or force that can actually cause things to happen. In one breath they push the evolution agenda and in the next they say that creatures were “designed” with specific traits. In this classic book, R. C. Sproul and Keith Mathison call the scientific world to employ logic and clarity in their discourse, to leave the word chance as an abstract concept to describe mathematical possibilities rather than an ontological being that can actually cause change. This expanded edition includes a new chapter dealing with the most recent attempts to defend irrational scientific statements. Two new appendices answer critics and review other literature on scientific discoveries that support belief in a Creator God.

  Additional Info
  What was clear to the original readers of Scripture is not always clear to us. Because of the cultural distance between the biblical world and our contemporary setting, we often bring modern Western biases to the text. For example: When Western readers hear Paul exhorting women to “dress modestly,” we automatically think in terms of sexual modesty. But most women in that culture would never wear racy clothing. The context suggests that Paul is likely more concerned about economic modesty–that Christian women not flaunt their wealth through expensive clothes, braided hair and gold jewelry.Some readers might assume that Moses married “below himself” because his wife was a dark-skinned Cushite. Actually, Hebrews were the slave race, not the Cushites, who were highly respected. Aaron and Miriam probably thought Moses was being presumptuous by marrying “above himself.”Western individualism leads us to assume that Mary and Joseph traveled alone to Bethlehem. What went without saying was that they were likely accompanied by a large entourage of extended family. Biblical scholars Brandon O’Brien and Randy Richards shed light on the ways that Western readers often misunderstand the cultural dynamics of the Bible. They identify nine key areas where modern Westerners have significantly different assumptions about what might be going on in a text. Drawing on their own crosscultural experience in global mission, O’Brien and Richards show how better self-awareness and understanding of cultural differences in language, time and social mores allow us to see the Bible in fresh and unexpected ways. Getting beyond our own cultural assumptions is increasingly important for being Christians in our interconnected and globalized world. Learn to read Scripture as a member of the global body of Christ.
