Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Biblical Literacy Project recently released a report that once again underscores just how little young Americans know about the Bible.

Further, as a churchman and an active observer of the local church scene, he is persuaded that many people who have been in church all their lives have somehow failed to gain a basic understanding of essential Christian words. In 52 Words Every Christian Should Know, Easley provides a Bible verse in which each word or concept is used, a succinct definition, and helpful articles further explaining the significance of each entry.

Download or read book Real Peace written by Warren W. Wiersbe and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2003-03-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Real Peace, Warren Wiersbe's practical, Scripture-based teaching helps Christians develop a life of peace and freedom. A combination of two Wiersbe classics, Enjoy Your Freedom and Meet Your Conscience, it shows why true freedom does not come from living as we wish, but from living in relationship to God. Wiersbe also shows how, in Christ, readers can receive freedom from sin, the law, and material things, and become all that God intended them to be. Real Peace explores conscience as a gift from God that helps guard our freedom, approving when we do right and convicting when we do wrong. Wiersbe examines the different types of consciences and explains how a conscience not exercised by obedience to God's Word will gradually become unreliable. Informative and compelling, this guide will delight Wiersbe fans and anyone looking for a vibrant and accessible definition of freedom and peace.
