The Bible speaks of many baptisms—ceremonial washings, John’s baptism of repentance, baptism for the dead, and more. Yet the apostle Paul declared with unshakable clarity: “One Lord, one faith, one baptism” (Ephesians 4:5). What happened to the other baptisms? Why did Paul write, “Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel” (1 Corinthians 1:17)? This book traces every baptism in Scripture, showing how each served its purpose for Israel under the law but is displaced by the one Spirit baptism for the Body of Christ today. With careful study and biblical clarity, you ...

Known for her best-selling detective novels, Dorothy L. Sayers lived a fascinating, groundbreaking life as a novelist, feminist, Oxford scholar, and important influence on the spiritual life of C. S. Lewis. Providing a blueprint for bridge-building in contemporary, polarizing contexts, Subversive shows how Sayers used edgy, often hilarious metaphors to ignite new ways to think about Christianity, shocking people into seeing the truth of ancient doctrine in a new light. 

"Red beef and strong beer" was how C. S. Lewis described his education under one of his early tutors. It was, in other words, a substantial education that engaged deeply with the intellectual tradition and challenged him to grow. Gary Selby sees Lewis' expression as an indication of the kind of transformation that is both possible and necessary for the Christian faith, and he contends that spiritual formation comes about not by retreating from the physical world, but through deeper engagement with it.

A fine collection of essays representing C.S. Lewis at his best and most brilliant. Christianity and Literature; Religion: Reality or Substitute?; The Funeral of a Great Myth; Petitionary Prayer: A Problem Without an Answer: The Seeing Eye. These are just some of the issues he tackles here. As...

Then Moses said, “Please, show me Your glory!” - Exodus 33:18(AMP) In the early 1700’s, while the Age of Enlightenment, also known as the Age of Reason, was sweeping through Europe, another movement began stirring among the English colonies in America. Led by Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefield and other charismatic leaders, the First Great Awakening served as a “wake up” call (pun intended) to people of the Christian faith to return to their first love. In the late 1700’s, beginning in New England, there was another stirring of faith among Christian believers giving birth to ...

Early in my ministry while pastoring a church that was growing rapidly a pastor of an independent church in the area asked me what we were doing that resulted in the phenomenal growth we were having. Although I had not yet written the book Your Church Can Grow, that includes 35 Critical Questions in chapter four, we discussed several of those topics, and I have since realized that I should have included at least one additional topic in that book, and that is Usher’s and Greeter’s Ministry. I have since come to realize this topic is equally as important as the 35 other questions, and ...

The novels of Australia’s Nobel Laureate Patrick White (1912–1990) are a persistent commentary on Nietzsche’s proclamation of God’s death. White knew the proclamation was not about God’s existence but about classical views of God. It presented him with the impossible task of using language to describe what language cannot describe. Because the announcement is often interpreted in antithetical ways: secular or religious, humanistic or fatalistic, White's readers can gain a better understanding of what he was trying to achieve by understanding the pattern of tropes he used to ...

In Preface to Paradise Lost, the Christian apologist and revered scholar and professor of literature closely examines the style, content, structure, and themes of Milton’s masterpiece, a retelling of the biblical story of the Fall of Humankind, Satan’s temptation, and the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden. Considering the story within the context of the Western literary tradition, Lewis offers invaluable insights into Paradise Lost and the nature of literature itself, unveiling the poem’s beauty and its wisdom.

Prophetic art is a visual form of prophecy. Prophetic artworks are visual love letters that speak straight to your heart carrying a message from the heart of God to strengthen, encourage and comfort. The ‘marriage’ of art and Spirit is the basis of prophetic art, where the artists attempt to convey messages from the Holy Spirit. In The Prophetic Artist: Raising an Army of Artists Wendy Manzo shares her lived experience as a prophetic artist in her thesis and 42 of her prophetic paintings along with the stories of their creation. She says, "I put this book together for three types of ...

C S Lewis’s philosophical defence of Natural Law (absolute morality) – without which human beings are reduced to less than fully human, and are, thus ‘abolished’. CS Lewis argues that objective value actually exists and that to believe otherwise is to create nonsense. Human beings...

For Wherever the Carcass is There the Eagles will be Gathered Together is an exposition of Matthew 24:28 and Luke 17:37. It is one of the several Messianic prophecies we find in these chapters from the Gospel according to St. Matthew and the Gospel according to St. Luke. For those who are not ardent readers of the Bible, it may sound difficult to explain because of the immediate contexts in which it appears. There are many views on the subject but the one that we find here is not only different but also sounds closer to its actual meaning. The good thing is that the contexts in which it ...

This book explores the concept of the inner voice—often recognized as intuition, divine guidance, or gut feeling—and its role in helping individuals unlock their true potential. By integrating insights from science, religion, and spirituality, the author argues that this inner guidance is a universal truth that transcends different belief systems.

The Question That Echoes Through Time Where are they now? That’s the question whispered in hospital rooms, graveside prayers, and lonely midnight thoughts. It’s the ache in the heart after a funeral. It’s the tension behind every sermon on eternity. And it’s the reality every soul must face: Death is coming—and we must know what comes after. Across centuries and cultures, religions and philosophies have attempted to answer this haunting question. Some say the dead cease to exist. Others say they reincarnate. Still others claim that everyone eventually makes it to heaven. But in ...
