  Leading Bible Scholars Explore Why the Theory of Theistic Evolution Conflicts with Christian Doctrine
  Even Christians strongly debate Scripture's account of creation, with some declaring that major events in the book of Genesis—from the origin of Adam and Eve to God's curse on the world—were purely symbolic. Several respected scholars endorse this theory, but is it consistent with the Bible's teaching?
  In A Biblical Case against Theistic Evolution, condensed and adapted from Theistic Evolution, Wayne Grudem and other leading scholars challenge the belief that Genesis is mostly symbolic, rather than a true, historical narrative. Grudem examines 12 specific events in Genesis 1–3 and explains why acknowledging their historicity is critical to understanding the rest of Scripture. He also emphasizes several foundational doctrines, including God's ongoing involvement in creation, the beginnings of mankind, and the origin of sin and death, to show readers how the theory of theistic evolution undermines essential truths throughout the Old and New Testaments.
  
  - Defends the Biblical Account of Creation: Explains why theistic evolution is incompatible with the teachings of the Old Testament 
  - Written by Leading Theological Scholars: Contributors include John D. Currid, Guy Prentiss Waters, Gregg R. Allison, and Fred G. Zaspel
  - An In-Depth Look at Genesis: Examines 12 key biblical events in the first 3 chapters of the Bible

  Christianity Today Book Awards Finalist—Marriage, Family, and Singleness
  Family discipleship is one of the most basic ways God has ordained to build his kingdom—and yet most parents struggle to do it consistently.
  Amid our busyness, the multitude of different approaches, and our own self-doubts, the deck seems stacked against us. But Brian Dembowczyk isn't here to pile on the guilt or to make us feel like failures. As a parent himself, he knows this struggle firsthand.
  In Family Discipleship That Works, Dembowczyk says that the goal of discipling our kids isn't just passing along head knowledge. It's teaching them to act like Jesus. The Bible itself is not just a story but a drama in which we ourselves participate, and our kids have roles to play too. Dembowczyk offers practical advice and a wealth of ideas for teaching our kids to imitate the character traits of Jesus himself as we "act out" the Christian life together.
  As parents, we are indeed called to disciple our children to know and act like Jesus. By God's grace, that's a task we can do—not out of guilt but with joy and good hope.
  Family Discipleship That Works . . .
  
  - Invites parents into more active family discipleship without judgmentalism, but with grace and understanding
  - Presents "imitating Jesus" as a new model for understanding and enacting family discipleship
  - Includes practical, achievable advice for parents to live out these principles in their homes

  What are you willing to cry out for? 
   
   
   
  Bartimaeus knew Jesus was his only hope for healing, for a better life. So even as the crowd jostled him, scolded him, told him to be quiet, he unleashed a desperate plea and shouted louder. This time Jesus stopped and said nine words that changed the trajectory of his life—and will change yours: "What do you want me to do for you?" 
   
   
   
  Unpacking this unforgettable encounter between Bartimaeus and Jesus with his unique humor, storytelling, and fist-pumping motivation, Chuck E. Tate shows how it can also be your story. Revealing faith-building biblical truth and wisdom, he shows how to overcome obstacles to boldly approach God; rise above resistance to receive from God; dream big and believe in God for the impossible; and move from desperately calling for Jesus to passionately following Him. 
   
   
   
  God always does exceedingly more than we can ask or imagine. So go ahead and shout—and receive all he has for you.
