Synopsis Living with Confidence in a Chaotic World by : Dr. David Jeremiah

In this updated edition of his classic book, New York Times bestselling author Dr. David Jeremiah offers biblically based, practical instruction for living a confident life in a world filled with chaos and crisis. Confidence can be hard to come by these days as millions of people experience immeasurable, unanticipated challenges. People are losing their jobs, their houses, and their life savings at an unprecedented rate. Violence, natural disasters, and moral depravity seem to be skyrocketing. In the midst of all this chaos, we need to know . . . what on earth should we do now? Bible teacher Dr. David Jeremiah brings a message of hope and confidence from the priceless counsel of the Word of God. If we rely on God's Word to advise us, calm us, and fill us with hope and trust in the One who understands what is happening, we can weather any storm. Dr. Jeremiah answers our most urgent questions, including: How can we weather this storm with a calm heart? What does it truly mean to “wait on the Lord”? What is Jesus saying to our chaotic world today? How on earth did we get into this mess? Can we take a broken world and rebuild it into something fruitful? Living with Confidence in a Chaotic World shows us all that with the power and love of Almighty God, we can live with confidence in this age of turmoil.

Synopsis In Praise of Dissent by : Ian Stackhouse

In Praise of Dissent challenges certain aspects of the Covid-19 narrative, in particular the unquestioning compliance of the public, and indeed of churches, towards the policy of lockdown. Given the seriousness of the issues at stake - civil and religious liberties, the power of the media, the growing 'cancel culture' - Ian Stackhouse challenges the passivity of the Christian community. He questions a spirituality that fails to engage politically, and in so doing he seeks to draw analogies between our own period of cultural and political crisis and that of the past. Looking particularly to historical figures such as Bishop George Bell, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Martin Luther King Jnr, and Thomas Merton, Stackhouse makes a case for religious dissent as a legitimate form of Christian witness. He also seeks to demonstrate how dissent can prove to be the most profound expression of patriotism, even though it is often branded, at the time, as treacherous. In Praise of Dissent is not a polemic. Rather, it is an exhortation to think through the relationship between Church and State, the difference between contemporary and biblical notions of social justice, the hypnotic power of the media, and the urgency of creating stable Christian communities that can withstand the 'soft' totalitarianism that is now beginning to assert itself culturally and politically, even in the West.

Synopsis Why Catholic Bibles Are Bigger by : Gary Michuta

Some differences between Catholicism and Protestantism can be tricky to grasp, but one of them just requires the ability to count: Catholic bibles have seventy-three books, whereas Protestant bibles have sixty-sis - plus an appendix with the strange title Apocrypha. What's the story here? Protestants claim that the medieval Catholic Church added six extra books that had never been considered part of the Old Testament, either by Jews or early Christians. Catholics say that the Protestant Reformers removed those books, long considered part of Sacred Scripture, because they didn't like what they contained. In Why Catholic Bibles Are Bigger, Gary Michuta presents a revised and expanded version of his authoritative work on this key issue. Combing the historical record from pre-Christian times to the Patristic era to the Reformation and its aftermath, he traces the canon controversy through the writings and actions of its major players.
