    In a fast-paced, result-oriented and competitive world, more and more young people are suffering from depression, anxiety and other forms of mental health disorders that severely impact the family unit. This book is written out of a deep concern for the wellbeing of young people, in particular, Muslim children living in the West. There is no one definitive way to address this issue. Nevertheless, children learn by example. The author, Dr Aminah Mah, offers a concise one-two-three step guide to improve parents' wellbeing first and foremost and, in turn, better nurture the next generation. This guide draws on Aminah's personal experiences as a parent and teacher. It is informed by her Master's and PhD research in parenting Muslim children and wellbeing support services in Australian Islamic schools, respectively. Within this guide, Aminah offers some easy to follow steps for caregivers, Muslims and non-Muslims alike, who are seeking to adopt a simplified framework to improve their own wellbeing, that will also positively impact their parenting. The author hopes that this book will help parents raise a new generation of young people who will be better equipped to find meaning and contentment in today's confusing times.

    There has hardly ever been in my ministry a series of sermons to which I have given more time, more pain and more prayer than I did to this series from Philippians 3.A. W. Tozer called these sermons the most important he ever preached. Looking closely at Philippians 3, he describes the Christian as a modern-day Lazarus who hears the call to arise—but can't escape the grave clothes. In this new series of sermon transcriptions, Tozer shows us how to live with freedom.Toward a Deeper Faith gives us Tozer’s sermons on:Considering Perfection in the Christian LifeFour Kinds of ChristiansDiscovering the Loveliness of Jesus ChristThe Will of God and Its Relationship to Our CrossThe Obstacle of Self TrustLiving in His Righteousness . . . and more.We are heirs to the King, and Tozer wants us to reclaim our heritage. Return again and again to Tozer’s twelve sermons that will bring you into a deeper life of love and maturity in Jesus Christ.

    The future is now. Philip Jenkins has chronicled how the next Christendom has shifted away from the Western church toward the global South and East. Likewise, changing demographics mean that North American society will accelerate its diversity in terms of race, ethnicity and culture. But evangelicalism has long been held captive by its predominantly white cultural identity and history. 
     
     
     
    In this book professor and pastor Soong-Chan Rah calls the North American church to escape its captivity to Western cultural trappings and to embrace a new evangelicalism that is diverse and multiethnic. Rah brings keen analysis to the limitations of American Christianity and shows how captivity to Western individualism and materialism has played itself out in megachurches and emergent churches alike. Many white churches are in crisis and ill-equipped to minister to new cultural realities, but immigrant, ethnic and multiethnic churches are succeeding and flourishing. 
     
     
     
    This prophetic report casts a vision for a dynamic evangelicalism that fully embodies the cultural realities of the twenty-first century. Spiritual renewal is happening within the North American church, from corners and margins not always noticed by those in the center. Come, discover the vitality of the next evangelicalism.
