Is there a new reformation happening in the church? It depends on who you ask. The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is a popular and fast-growing new movement of Christians who emphasize signs and wonders, and teach that God is giving new revelation through new apostles and prophets. But is this biblical Christianity? In Counterfeit Kingdom, apologists and NAR experts Holly Pivec and Douglas Geivett show how the NAR’s key tenets distort the gospel, twist the Scriptures, are influenced by New Age practices, and lead faithful Christians to shipwreck their faith.

The development of meaningful relationships, where every member carries a significant sense of belonging, is central to what it means to be the church. So why do many Christians feel disappointed and disillusioned with their efforts to experience authentic community? Despite the best efforts of...

We live in an age defined by disruption—artificial intelligence, digital tribalism, decentralization. In our post-truth culture too many leaders cling to outdated models, unsure how to engage a world that has already moved on. Is this the end—or the beginning of something new? Terry Parkman, DMin, recognizes the opportunity within the chaos. With today’s cultural, technological, and spiritual paradigms shifting faster than ever, this moment demands more than a few tweaks. It demands transformation.

When peace seems far from us and when true rest doesn’t come, we don’t need more to-dos on our list or a set of step-by-step instructions to help us get there on our own. True peace, hope, and rest only comes by spending time in the presence of God. Spend 90 days in His Word focused on who God is and what He is like and find that He is worthy to be trusted at every twist or turn of life. He is better than our minds can imagine, in control of all things, and infinitely good.

​Every Member Matters is a small and accessible book that lays out the important role that every member plays in the mission of the local church. This book is written by two pastors leading in different contexts in the same community, one a church planter and the other a pastor of an established church.

We live in a season when church attendance is still building back to what it was before the pandemic. Many Christians have been separated from their church communities. How do we resume and re-prioritize church life and join back together? Why do we even need to—especially when online church fits so neatly around our schedules? Gathered for Good addresses this felt need with empathy and authority and encourage believers to commit to their local church community as a way to deepen their spiritual growth and invest in treasure that will last.

The Roman Catholic Church is the largest religious institution in the world with approx. 1.3 billion Catholics world-wide. Although Roman Catholicism seems to be a single unified belief system, not all Catholics believe the same things or act in the same way. Regardless, all Roman Catholics feel connected to their church's traditions and rituals. Unfortunately, the church of Rome does not hold the Bible as the highest authority or teach that salvation comes by faith alone.

In this audiobook, theologian R. Albert Mohler Jr. delves into the historical significance of the offices of prophet, priest, and king. He traces their origins in the Old Testament to their ultimate fulfillment in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Mohler presents a compelling argument: the three offices should not be compartmentalized. They are interconnected and essential for Christian faithfulness in the home, the church, and society. When Jesus Christ returns, the whole world will bow to him as Lord—Prophet, Priest, and King.

Our millennial children, as well as non-churchgoing millennials, are both the church's greatest challenge and its most exciting new opportunity. There is a fundamental frame of reference shift in American society happening right now among young adults. You may think of this group as millennials...

It's hard to know a God we don't understand, and it's hard to love a God we don't know. But our God wants to be known and loved, and He’s told us a lot about Himself in the pages of His Word—particularly that He is a “three-in-one” God. Although it is a crucial and classic Christian teaching, understanding the Trinity can be intimidating at first. But it doesn’t have to be! Join bestselling author, Bible teacher, and podcaster Tara-Leigh Cobble as she walks you through the triune nature of God: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

In Recovered, pastor and author Robby Gallaty tells the story of how God radically saved him from his addictions and called him into a life of discipleship. Robby grew up in a very religious Catholic family who attended church every Sunday and confession on Saturday if needed. Very rarely did he miss a Saturday night dinner and a movie with his parents and sister Lori. You can imagine how devastated they were when Robby stole $15,000 from them to fuel his drug addiction.

A church member came up to me after a church service and said in the course of our conversation 'I hope I never live to see the last days of the church. I would like to just skip all the problems that generation will face.' Many Church members when faced with the biblical subject of the last days feel the same way. Too many churches have failed to prepare God's People for the end times.

Even a cursory scrolling of social media may lead you to the conclusion that you have to be angry to do theology. Sadly, our day is characterized by theological fighting—complete with harsh words, exaggeration, biting sarcasm, and the spirit of tearing down our brothers and sisters in Christ. But it does not have to be this way. In fact, it should not be this way. Ronni Kurtz swims upstream to counter this prevailing problem. Instead of theology leading to anger, division, and discord, this book shows that the life of the mind can actually lead to the fruit of the Spirit

He challenges those who, through allegorical methods, treat passages of Scripture intended for the nations of Israel and Iraq (ancient Babylon) as if they are applicable to the United States. Allegorical methods are open to the whims of people’s imaginations and become disconnected from the plain meaning of scripture, whereas the method of using Scripture to unlock Scripture demonstrates that the United States and other modern nations, such as Russia and China, are identifiable, and their fates can be ascertained.Paul encourages the reader to look beyond the coming judgement on the United States toward its future repentance and restoration. Christians who grasp the magnitude of our country’s fate will be better prepared for the coming shaking.

In his third book in a series that includes The Timing of the Rapture and Is the United States Mentioned in Bible Prophecy: With A Treatise on the Ezekiel 38 and Psalm 83 Wars, Paul Wild addresses the incorrect views regarding the Antichrist’s origin and characteristics. Much of the speculation regarding the identity of the pivotal person in end-times prophecy has hinged more on identifying powerful, influential men who are perceived as evil rather than uncovering the subtle details of his persona.

In a culture that views absolute truth as a fixture of the past, it is necessary to have a deeper explanation of the hope available to us in Jesus. If this explanation is indeed plausible and the Bible is true, then the implications for how we live are nothing short of profound!

In this four-session audio Bible study, Andy Stanley unpacks four questions that will help you make sound decisions with God’s help. Throughout our lives, we’re confronted with decisions we never anticipated having to make – relational, career, financial, parenting – the list goes on and...

Within each prophetic leader is the ability to shape the future of the kingdom here on earth, to direct currents and trends, to advance the objectives of the Savior, and to promote prosperity and health. When someone is given a mandate by God, they are given a set of orders to fulfill and the authority to fulfill them. You are given the plan and the power to implement that plan.
