Challenging Conversations: A Practical Guide to Discuss Controversial Topics in the Church
Now Available
When was the last time you had an honest, heartfelt, yet kind and productive conversation with someone about depression, mental illness, substance abuse, pornography, premarital sex, racism, divorce, abortion, LGBT issues, or politics? Our tendency is either to avoid talking about such volatile topics at all—even with other Christians—or to go on the attack, causing rifts that do nothing to encourage further discussion or growth.
But there is a better way.
Christians are called to live like Jesus. This means engaging in difficult conversations. It means pursuing truth while demonstrating unconditional love for one another. Jason Jimenez walks us through tactics help us discuss even the most difficult topics within the church.
Why You Matter: How the Quest for Meaning is Meaningless without God
Available Now
We all desire to know if our life has any meaning.
Does our value come from what we produce? Maybe from what we do for others? Or can we earn it at all?
Many might say “of course not, our value is intrinsic!” But how did they arrive at this conclusion? In a secular world, can we actually have intrinsic meaning without God?
With humor and real-life experience, pastor and author Michael Sherrard walks with readers on the quest for meaning. His conclusions may not be what you expect, but you’ll find yourself more aware than ever of our need for God.
We all long for significance. And it might only be found where we least expect it.
