Pulpit Science Fiction
$16.18
To keep the Christian message relevant in our rapidly changing times, it’s vital that churches come to terms with how modern technology and scientific knowledge have changed the way we understand the world. And because preaching is the church’s primary mode of communication (especially with adults), it offers a significant opportunity to shape how we think about the larger questions of our existence.
One innovative way for preachers to address these concerns is through popular science fiction. Because many of the genre’s stories deal with the impact of science and technology on individuals and cultures, they often have implicit religious implications. Pulpit Science Fiction is a fascinating collection of creative story sermons that shows how you can use elements drawn from science fiction to boldly proclaim the Christian faith. In addition to 14 imaginative “science fiction parables,” a pair of essays are also included that illustrate how references to science fiction films and stories can be utilized in preaching.
Story titles include:
* Improving The Species — Genesis 6:1-4
* Exiles — Ezekiel 34:11-16, 23-24
* Time Travel — Mark 1:12-15
* The Aliens Are Puzzled — John 10:11-16
* Burying The Seeds — John 12:20-33
* The Signal — Ephesians 3:7-12
* erhero: Sort of a Sequel — Hebrews 12:1-2
…and seven more!

Simply Jesus : A New Vision Of Who He Was What He Did And Why He Matters
$15.99In Simply Jesus, bestselling author and leading Bible scholar N.T. Wright summarizes 200 years of modern Biblical scholarship and models how Christians can best retell the story of Jesus today. In a style similar to C.S. Lewis’s popular works, Wright breaks down the barriers that prevent Christians from fully engaging with the story of Jesus. For believers confronting the challenge of connecting with their faith today, and for readers of Timothy Keller’s The Reason for God, Wright’s Simply Jesus offers a provocative new picture of how to understand who Jesus was and how Christians should relate to him today.
