Review–A Conversation With God

Image
  Book Description   A front row seat to a fascinating conversation between God, Jesus, and other biblical characters answering important questions about life and faith. A Conversation with God allows readers a one-on-one dialogue with God, his son Jesus, and other important men and women from the Bible as they respond to questions and concerns relevant to the Christian faith. The questions, in some cases hard-hitting, cover issues that have troubled believers and seekers since the beginning of time. Each answer is based on Scripture and written with the warmth and intimacy of a Heavenly Father relating to His child. Categories and sample questions include: *God, how can we believe that You created us? *Why weren't all early writings included in the Bible? *How should we prepare for the end of the world? *Jesus, can I lose my salvation? *What will we look like in heaven? *God, does choice extend to abortion?

Early Review–Counterfeit Gospels

Book Description   The biblical gospel is like a three-legged stool: a story that climaxes with an announcement which births a community.  Deny one or more of these components and you have a counterfeit. Counterfeit Gospels exposes six common versions of the "good news" that fail to do justice to the biblical portrait and thus leave us impoverished rather than empowered for ministry. By exposing the counterfeits and explaining the biblical gospel, this book will help Christians gain clarity on the gospel and challenge them to accept no substitutes. Book Review   Just as passing counterfeit currency around can undermine a government, passing around counterfeit gospels can undermine Christianity. Trevin goes on to explain the three prongs of the gospel and how to truly understand the true gospel.  He points towards Biblical references to show how certain gospels that people take as being true are in fact counterfeit gospels.  And he shows us how to find the truth.
