Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Confident Faith, Mark Mittelberg assures Christians that we can be confident in our beliefs. There's no reason to be timid about what we believe, because our beliefs can stand up to the test. Truth isn't dependent on how a person feels or one's own point of view, as so many assert. On the contrary, we can determine truth through our five senses, and that truth reliably points to a deeper and unseen reality. Mark walks readers through twenty arrows that point towards Christian beliefs: from the intricate design of the universe to archaeological proofs, from the consistent testimony of changed lives to the reliability of the ancient documents of the Bible. After studying these arrows, you'll put this book down with a renewed confidence in what you believe and why it matters for eternity.

The book first looks at the top challenges facing Christianity in the twenty-first century. It then delivers a detailed and practical examination of Scripture that uncovers Paul's apologetics approach, briefly contrasts it with other apologetics systems, and shows how Paul's methods can be easily transported into our current culture to combat the key issues Christianity faces today. A Confident Faith will help you: - Deepen your own faith with a crystal-clear understanding of why Christianity is true- Confidently engage non-Christians using the approach of Paul- Easily overcome the distractions, emotional obstacles, and bad philosophies that keep people from JesusA Confident Faith is perfect for Christians who are interested in proactively defending the faith today against its challengers. This naturally includes pastors, high-school and college ministerial staff, and seminary students, but also all Christians in general who participate in (either formally or through their everyday witness) lay evangelism and apologetics outreach.

Download or read book Confident Pluralism written by John D. Inazu and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2018-08-03 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the three years since Donald Trump first announced his plans to run for president, the United States seems to become more dramatically polarized and divided with each passing month. There are seemingly irresolvable differences in the beliefs, values, and identities of citizens across the country that too often play out in our legal system in clashes on a range of topics such as the tensions between law enforcement and minority communities. How can we possibly argue for civic aspirations like tolerance, humility, and patience in our current moment? In Confident Pluralism, John D. Inazu analyzes the current state of the country, orients the contemporary United States within its broader history, and explores the ways that Americans can—and must—strive to live together peaceably despite our deeply engrained differences. Pluralism is one of the founding creeds of the United States—yet America’s society and legal system continues to face deep, unsolved structural problems in dealing with differing cultural anxieties and differing viewpoints. Inazu not only argues that it is possible to cohabitate peacefully in this country, but also lays out realistic guidelines for our society and legal system to achieve the new American dream through civic practices that value toleration over protest, humility over defensiveness, and persuasion over coercion. With a new preface that addresses the election of Donald Trump, the decline in civic discourse after the election, the Nazi march in Charlottesville, and more, this new edition of Confident Pluralism is an essential clarion call during one of the most troubled times in US history. Inazu argues for institutions that can work to bring people together as well as political institutions that will defend the unprotected. Confident Pluralism offers a refreshing argument for how the legal system can protect peoples’ personal beliefs and differences and provides a path forward to a healthier future of tolerance, humility, and patience.
Download or read book Every Believer Confident written by Mark J. Farnham and published by AuthorLoyalty. This book was released on 2021-02-06 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the average Christian who longs to share their faith effectively but doesn't know where to begin, Every Believer Confident is the ultimate guidebook. All believers are called to make disciples and "give an answer" when objections are raised against the faith. Most Christians want to share and defend their beliefs, but they often feel ill-equipped. They desire to reach friends, family, coworkers, and classmates with the good news of Jesus Christ, but lack confidence and skill. They want to be like Jesus and effectively engage the lost with the powerful truth of the gospel. They just don't know how. What's needed is a way to simplify apologetics and make it accessible to the average church member who will never study philosophy or science. If every church member was indeed a skilled evangelist, churches would not have to depend on come-and-see events to reach the community, because every member would be practicing the go-and-tell approach Scripture assumes. Every Believer Confident: Apologetics for the Ordinary Christian simplifies the basic principles of apologetics and provides effective strategies for use in actual encounters with unbelievers. It provides a structure whereby any Christian can engage anyone they meet, move the conversation to spiritual matters, answer objections raised against the Christian faith, and present the gospel of Christ in all its glory and rationality.

Download or read book Grounded Faith for Practical People written by Mike Taylor and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to have confident faith in God? Are you skeptical of the belief that God is real? Or did you grow up hearing that God was real but now you find yourself doubting? This book will give you a simple and visual guide to overcoming doubts and strengthening your confidence in God so you can live boldly knowing what you believe and why you believe it. 90% of people in America believe that there is a God or at least a "higher power," yet only a little over a quarter of people say they believe God is in control of their life all the time. In other words, almost everyone knows there's something or someone out there, and some of us even call Him God, but very few people actually trust and live confidently connected to the one true loving God. That's a serious problem, and it's exactly why most of us experience a chaotic internal existence with little to no genuine peace. I grew up in church, but I never knew what I truly believed and why, so I spent roughly 15 years doubting God's existence. But when my wife and I had our first child, one thought kept me up at night: What am I going to say when this kid grows up and asks me if God is real? For the next few years, I researched everything I could about whether or not God was real. What I learned during that time forever changed my life and strengthened my faith. In this book, I'll simplify and share what I found so you can confidently know the love of your Creator. Whether you're religious, spiritual, or completely without faith in God, you'll see evidence in this book that serves as the foundation for grounded faith in the loving God - the kind of confidence that can and will change your life.
Download or read book Brave by Faith written by Alistair Begg and published by The Good Book Company. This book was released on 2021-05-01 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn from the book of Daniel how to live confidently for Christ today. What does it look like to live with joy in a society that does not like what Christians believe, say or do? It’s tempting to grow angry, keep our heads down, retreat or just give up altogether. But this isn’t the first time that God’s people have had to learn how to live in a pagan world that opposes God’s rule. In this realistic yet positive book, renowned Bible teacher Alistair Begg examines the first seven chapters of Daniel to show us how to live bravely, confidently and obediently in an increasingly secular society. Readers will see that God is powerful and God is sovereign, and even in the face of circumstances that appear to be prevailing against his people, we may trust him entirely. We can be as brave as Daniel if we have faith in Daniel’s God! "The message of Daniel is incredibly relevant for us in our generation. Not because it maps out a strategy for how to deal with our new lack of status ... or because Daniel was a great man and we need to follow his example. The reason is that it will help us to believe in Daniel’s God." Alistair Begg, author.
Download or read book Unbelievable written by Malcolm Duncan and published by Monarch Books. This book was released on 2014-03-21 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians face a tough task. In a world without consensus, all truth claims are regarded dubiously. The Gospel does not change, but what aspects should be highlighted in our rapidly changing culture? How do we speak 'into' the culture, instead of just mirroring that culture? Malcolm Duncan constructs his case around the core statements of the Apostles' Creed. If we believe in as God as Creator, what does that mean about our treatment of His creation? If we accept Christ as Saviour and Lord, in what sense are we rescued, redeemed, remade? If we accept the Holy Spirit as Guide, where are we going and what are we here for? We face an unbelievable task: playing our part in the world's regeneration. But God has confidence in us. If we can be confident of what He has done for us, then we can also be confident of what He wants to do through us.
