Have you ever wanted to express your honest opinion about someone but didn't know how to do it kindly? Have you ever been hurt by someone? Do you ever wonder what motivates people to do what they do? We all know people aren't perfect, but why do we get mad when people make mistakes? We claim to appreciate differences, but there are times when we expect people to conform to our standards. As followers of Jesus, we are told that we are one, but why do we keep building walls based on our cultural differences, social issues, political views, personal ideologies, and past experiences? These divisions, along with the pain we carry and the disappointments we have experienced, can ruin relationships, harm individuals, and, most importantly, dishonor God. After the damage has been done, we sit and wonder what went wrong. Our divisions have the potential to ruin our witness to the world, and our behaviors can turn unbelievers away from ever-knowing Christ. In People Suck, God is Good, Dr. Malcolm Walls Jr. writes from a place of realism and vulnerability, bravely confronts division among people by breaking down the root causes of division, and highlights how our experiences, cultural differences, past hurts, values, and beliefs can easily separate the people of God. By using the Bible, he reveals why we must strive to grow in our faith, break down the walls of division, and work towards creating unity and authentic community with other followers of Jesus regardless of their backgrounds, beliefs, and brokenness. The insights shared by Dr. Walls will help people go deeper in their personal faith journey and inspire the pursuit of unity in Christ for abundant living and God's glory.

Did you ever wonder where people really stand with Christ when they are still falling desperately short? Jesus doesn't believe in people. Of course He believes they exist but he doesn't place His trust in them.(see Gen.3:24) Jesus did not come to seek people He could count on to never let Him down. He sought to save people who needed to be rescued. People who are willing to admit that they desperately need Him are people who will passionately love Him. (John 2:24) "But Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because He knew all men, and had no need that anyone should testify of man, for He knew what was in man." Jesus knows the truth; People Suck and only He can fill the Vacuum. We are called to believe in Jesus and be filled with His Holy Spirit. This book is for those who question the authenticity of other people's faith confessions based on their continuing sinful behavior. It also endeavors to answer how eternally secure can anyone really be in light of their own less than perfect condition. "PEOPLE SUCK; Jesus fills the Vacuum" makes bold assertions based not only on specific scripture but also on the continuity of the Scriptures as a whole. It makes complex issues easy to understand with vivid word imagery. The text puts to test specific verses that are often used to question the existence of a firm foundation for salvation in Christ, when works of righteousness are not obvious. "PEOPLE SUCK; Jesus fills the Vacuum" speaks to the topic of eternal security asserting that the more a child of God consumes (sucks in) the validity of God's unconditional love, the more they become partakers of God's Divine Nature. This journey in faith may very well forever change the way you view God, yourself and other people.

The Book of Job is among the other Old Testament Books both a philosophical riddle and a historical riddle. Controversy has long raged about which parts of this epic belong to its original scheme and which are interpolations of considerably later date. The doctors disagree, as it is the business of doctors to do; but upon the whole the trend of investigation has always been in the direction of maintaining that the parts interpolated, if any, were the prose prologue and epilogue and possibly the speech of the young man who comes in with an apology at the end. This work contains Chesterton's assumptions and thoughts on this mysterious scripture.

An honest, irreverent, laugh-out-loud guide to coping with death and dying from Emmy-nominated writer and New York Times bestselling co-author of Sh*tty Mom Laurie Kilmartin. Death is not for the faint of heart, and sometimes the best way to cope is through humor. No one knows this better than comedian Laurie Kilmartin. She made headlines by live-tweeting her father’s time in hospice and her grieving process after he passed, and channeled her experience into a comedy special, 45 Jokes About My Dead Dad. Dead People Suck is her hilarious guide to surviving (sometimes) death, dying, and grief without losing your mind. If you are old and about to die, sick and about to die, or with a loved one who is about to pass away or who has passed away, there’s something for you. With chapters like “Are You An Old Man With Daughters? Please Shred Your Porn,” “If Cancer was an STD, It Would Be Cured By Now,” and “Unsubscribing Your Dead Parent from Tea Party Emails,” Laurie Kilmartin guides you through some of life’s most complicated moments with equal parts heart and sarcasm.

Thor Ramsey (hereafter known as the Jon Stewart of the theological world) defends the essentials of the Christian faith in this volume of comedy for the thinking person. Armed with only a laptop and a rapier wit, he defends the inspiration of the Bible ("all Scripture is inspired by God"—in other words, when you tell someone off, quote the Bible), the doctrine of total depravity (calling someone out for their sins is a tricky business, especially if you don't know how to operate a bullhorn), and the supremacy of Christ (or why Thor's God is bigger than your god), along with a host of other essential doctrines of the Christian faith. Packed with funny stories and hard-hitting truths, this comprehensive collection of biblical insights and personal anecdotes will surprise readers, destroy their misconceptions and leave them wanting more. For readers looking alternatives to the conversation of traditional faith, or those who have a taste for fearless (and hilarious) honesty, A Comedian's Guide to Theology will permanently change how we all look at Christianity—or at least offer a good-hearted shove out of the box (or back in the box, if that's where you need to be). "What a supreme pleasure to read a book that I find powerfully honest, theologically kapow dead-on, and incredibly and ACTUALLY funny funny funny funny! This book is so brilliantly funny and dead-on that if I weren't a very mature Christian I might be jealous." —Eric Metaxas, New York Times best-selling author of Amazing Grace: William Wilberforce and the Heroic Campaign to End Slavery, and former editor of The Yale Record.

While atheists such as Richard Dawkins have now become public figures, there is another and perhaps darker strain of religious rebellion that has remained out of sight--people who hate God. In this revealing book, Bernard Schweizer looks at men and women who do not question God's existence, but deny that He is merciful, competent, or good. Sifting through a wide range of literary and historical works, Schweizer finds that people hate God for a variety of reasons. Some are motivated by social injustice, human suffering, or natural catastrophes that God does not prevent. Some blame God for their personal tragedies. Schweizer concludes that, despite their blasphemous thoughts, these people tend to be creative and moral individuals, and include such literary lights as Friedrich Nietzsche, Mark Twain, Zora Neale Hurston, Rebecca West, Elie Wiesel, and Philip Pullman. Schweizer shows that literature is a fertile ground for God haters. Many authors, who dare not voice their negative attitude to God openly, turn to fiction to give vent to it. Indeed, Schweizer provides many new and startling readings of literary masterpieces, highlighting the undercurrent of hatred for God. Moreover, by probing the deeper mainsprings that cause sensible, rational, and moral beings to turn against God, Schweizer offers answers to some of the most vexing questions that beset human relationships with the divine.

If we're honest, most of us feel bored, distracted, or discouraged in prayer. We look for resources to give us the "right" words or teach us the "right" technique and are disappointed when they don't seem to help. What we fail to realize is that prayer isn't a place for us to be good or right, and it isn't a place for us to perform or prove our worth. It's a place for us to be honest, present, and known--a place for us to offer ourselves and receive God. Spiritual formation experts Kyle Strobel and John Coe want to show you what you've been missing when it comes to prayer. In this down-to-earth book, they show you how to fearlessly draw near to a holy God, pray without ceasing (and without posturing), and delight in the experience of being fully known and fully loved. Each chapter ends with prayer projects or practices to help you see a difference in your prayer life, starting now.

Does it really matter? Does it matter if we have free will? Does it matter if Calvinism is true? And does what you think about it matter? No and yes. No, it doesn't matter because God is who he is and does what he does regardless of what we think of him, just as the solar system keeps spinning around the sun even if we're convinced it spins around the earth. Our opinions about God will not change God, but they can change us. And so yes, it does matter because the conversations about free will and Calvinism confront us with perhaps the only question that really matters: who is God? This is a book about that question--a book about the Bible, black holes, love, sovereignty, hell, Romans 9, Jonathan Edwards, John Piper, C. S. Lewis, Karl Barth, and a little girl in a red coat. You've heard arguments, but here's a story--Austin Fischer's story, and his journey in and out of Calvinism on a trip to the center of the universe.
