Written in an accessible, conversational style that incorporates numerous stories and questions, this book exposes the weaknesses of a Western worldview through a personal engagement with Indigenous theology.

This audiobook is fresh, insightful, and important, and faces head on today's most urgent challenges to Christian faith.

Meet the challenges of modern living and integrate the teachings of Christ with your everyday life!

Being an effective Christian is tough in a world that is increasingly at odds with what you believe. But living at odds with the world is not what Jesus would do. He would meet the people around Him at their point of need and minister to them in a loving and sincere way. He calls you to live this way too. But how are you to do this?

I recently spent one month in one of the leading countries of the world whose population is said to be 25 percent Christians. Yes, the claim is that one out of every four people is born again. I was also told that the divorce rate was skyrocketing. One minister even told me that the divorce rate among believers was just as high as the one among the unsaved.

Although the five books in this series are complementary and help the listener to have a more complete view of the theme, each book is complete in its own right and should be enjoyed for the profit of it. Although the books are rooted in the Word of God, they are written not merely to help listeners to know God’s point of view about the matters discussed but also to lead the believer beyond theoretical understanding into spiritual experience; for sanctification is, ultimately, not merely a doctrine but an experience.

Jesus' name with love, peace, and life. Put the two in a room together and you won't believe your ears.

If you are a child of God who still commits sin deliberately, committing the same sin over and over, it is because your eyes have never been opened to see that sin is a knife thrust willingly into God's heart; your eyes have never been opened to see the harm that sin causes in every domain of your life.
