Download or read book Simply Good News written by Tom Wright and published by SPCK. This book was released on 2015-03-19 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gospel means good news, but what makes it news? If the message has been around for 2,000 years, what could possibly be newsworthy about it? And what makes it good? Surely not the stories we hear of damnation, violence, and an angry God. Tom Wright believes many Christians have lost sight of what the ‘good news’ of the gospel really is. In Simply Good News, he shows how a first-century audience would have received the gospel message, what the ‘good news’ means for us today and how it can transform our lives.

Book The Good News Club

    Book Details:
  • Author : Katherine Stewart
  • Publisher : PublicAffairs
  • Release : 2012-01-24
  • ISBN : 1610390504
  • Pages : 306 pages

Download or read book The Good News Club written by Katherine Stewart and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2012-01-24 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2009, the Good News Club came to the public elementary school where journalist Katherine Stewart sent her children. The Club, which is sponsored by the Child Evangelism Fellowship, bills itself as an after-school program of "Bible study." But Stewart soon discovered that the Club's real mission is to convert children to fundamentalist Christianity and encourage them to proselytize to their "unchurched" peers, all the while promoting the natural but false impression among the children that its activities are endorsed by the school. Astonished to discover that the U.S. Supreme Court has deemed this -- and other forms of religious activity in public schools -- legal, Stewart set off on an investigative journey to dozens of cities and towns across the nation to document the impact. In this book she demonstrates that there is more religion in America's public schools today than there has been for the past 100 years. The movement driving this agenda is stealthy. It is aggressive. It has our children in its sights. And its ultimate aim is to destroy the system of public education as we know it.

Book The Power of Good News

    Book Details:
  • Author : Hal Urban
  • Publisher : Berrett-Koehler Publishers
  • Release : 2021-05-11
  • ISBN : 1523092793
  • Pages : 169 pages

Download or read book The Power of Good News written by Hal Urban and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The media's bias toward stories of conflict, violence, and division is bad for your health. In this book, Hal Urban shows how to find the positive and uplifting all around us. The news media thrives on bad news. In recent years, the political climate has become vitriolic and divisive, our country seems more polarized than ever, and news feels inescapable because technology has significantly increased its reach. People who like to stay informed need a lift. Most people are aware that what they eat greatly impacts their physical health: junk food is bad, vegetables are good. Hal Urban argues that we can nourish our minds by choosing how we consume news, and that when we surrender all that choice to media and external forces, we give up our growth, freedom, and mental health. Countless signs of progress and acts of kindness exist all around the world if you know where to look. And there are positive aspects in our own lives—family, friends, simple beauties, and everyday generosities—that we take for granted. This book helps readers understand that, as the late Zig Ziglar said, "You are what you are because of what goes into your mind."

Book The Good News We Almost Forgot

Download or read book The Good News We Almost Forgot written by Kevin L. DeYoung and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If there is "nothing new under the sun," perhaps the main task now facing the Western church is not to reinvent or be relevant, but to remember. The truth of the gospel is still contained within vintage faith statements. Within creeds and catechisms we can have our faith strengthened, our knowledge broadened, and our love for Jesus deepened. In The Good News We Almost Forgot, Kevin DeYoung explores the Heidelberg Catechism and writes 52 brief chapters on what it has shown him. The Heidelberg is largely a commentary on the Apostle's Creed, the Ten Commandments, and the Lord's Prayer, and deals with man's guilt, God's grace, and believers' gratitude. This book is a clear-headed, warm-hearted exploration of the faith, simple enough for young believers and deep enough for mature believers. DeYoung writes, "The gospel summarized in the Heidelberg Catechism is glorious, its Christ gracious, its comfort rich, its Spirit strong, its God Sovereign, and its truth timeless." Come and see how your soul can be warmed by the elegantly and logically stated doctrine that matters most: We are great sinners and Christ is a greater Savior!

Book Good News to the Poor

  • Author : Tim Chester
  • Publisher : Crossway
  • Release : 2013-07-31
  • ISBN : 1433537060
  • Pages : 226 pages

Download or read book Good News to the Poor written by Tim Chester and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Help them or tell them? Be like Jesus or talk about Jesus? Social action or gospel proclamation? It seems the two are often pitted against each other, as if they are mutually exclusive. But the New Testament paints a different picture where both aspects are valued. In this plea for a renewed understanding of the Christian calling, Chester argues that faithfulness to the gospel necessitates a commitment to evangelism and social involvement. To that end, he structures the book around three basic theses: 1.) evangelism and social action are distinct activities, 2.) proclamation is central, and 3.) evangelism and social action are inseparable. Responding to Christians in both camps, Chester helps people to talk the talk and walk the walk.

Book The Good News Is Better Than You Think

Download or read book The Good News Is Better Than You Think written by Robert J. Wieland and published by Cfi Book Division. This book was released on 2023-09-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good news spoken to a despairing person may do more lasting good than drugs. Then why doesn't the Gospel of Jesus solve the world's problems of discouragement and despair? Through the nearly two millennia since Christ's apostles' wrote letters containing the Good News to early Christians, accretions of Bad News have attached themselves to the Gospel like barnacles on a ship. Intelligent human beings are confused. Their natural common sense can't help but perceive contradictions between what the Bible proclaims and what many churches teach. Only a small amount of arsenic ruins an otherwise good meal, and the Gospel can be nullified by man-made Bad News. This book courageously cuts through the Bad News that has mysteriously infiltrated the Gospel, and restores the pure New Testament ideas. That pristine Good News once "turned the world upside down" (to quote the enemies of the apostles in Acts 17:6). Surely the time has come for the world again to hear such Good News proclaimed in clarity.

  • Author : Scot McKnight
  • Publisher : Baylor University Press
  • Release : 2005
  • ISBN : 1932792295
  • Pages : 462 pages

Download or read book Jesus and His Death written by Scot McKnight and published by Baylor University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent scholarship on the historical Jesus has rightly focused upon how Jesus understood his own mission. But no scholarly effort to understand the mission of Jesus can rest content without exploring the historical possibility that Jesus envisioned his own death. In this careful and far-reaching study, Scot McKnight contends that Jesus did in fact anticipate his own death, that Jesus understood his death as an atoning sacrifice, and that his death as an atoning sacrifice stood at the heart of Jesus' own mission to protect his own followers from the judgment of God.

  • Release : 2017-03-23
  • ISBN : 9781946245021
  • Pages : 136 pages

Download or read book I Have Some Good News written by Preston Condra and published by . This book was released on 2017-03-23 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gospel of Christ is a message which claims to save from damnation those who believe it. This "good news" message purports to reveal who saves, what he did, why we need it, how we get it, and where to find reliable information about it. The Gospel, however, is widely doubted, disputed, and denied. Many wonder: - Does Jesus have to be who Christians claim he is? - What did his death accomplish? - Why would God send me to hell? - Can faith really be all there is to it? - Do I need to trust the Bible? Using Bible verses, "I Have Some Good News" addresses objections to the Gospel, and allows Christianity's source book to speak for itself.
