  Accidental Pagans - Untangling...

  We were never meant to be afraid of God―but many of us are.The ancient world of the New and Old Testament was saturated with this kind of fear. And as strange as this might seem to us, today’s Christians are not so different. We agonize over the exact wording of our prayers to try and make sure God responds a certain way. We push ourselves to do all the right things in the hopes that a distant, unpredictable God might be impressed enough to side with us. But this is not the God we encounter in the Scriptures and in the life of Christ. This sort of fear-driven faith is more like ancient paganism, the religious environment the Apostle Paul found in Athens. Accidental Pagans uses illustrative examples from pagan mythology to draw parallels between pagan ideas of gods and our modern-day understanding of God.In Accidental Pagans, pastor Ryan Lokkesmoe will:unpack the difference between a healthy fear of the Lord and an unhealthy fear-based relationship with himilluminate the ways that we Christians accidentally view God in our theology like the ancient pagans viewed their deitiesshow how we Christians mistakenly embrace this fear-driven perspective, living like accidental pagans in the processlook to the Bible to remind us of what is true about God’s character and learn practical ways to live in the freedom he offersRediscover who God really is―and live in freedom and faith over fear.

  The spark that ignited the writing of HE IS!  is Hebrews 11:6: “But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him” (NKJV). 
  In his deepest trials of life, Mark embarked on an adventure to know God more fully and intimately through prayerful meditation on the Scriptures. He confesses that he has been a part of three main groups in this world: those who deny that God exists, those who don’t know if there is a God, and those who believe in God. He shares some of his own spiritual awakening in the Preface and stories from his life that help devotional theology to be practical and relatable to life. 
  If you are considering beginning your own Hebrews 11:6 quest to know God more personally and intimately, this devotional theology listen will be of great help as it is filled with Scriptural quotations that reveal who God says HE IS! 
  Each meditation includes reflection questions that ask readers to consider topics such as whether they find comfort in sometimes not understanding God, how they feel about awesome truths regarding God, and how knowing a particular attribute of God might change the way they think and act. 
  Ignite your faith, learn more about who God is, and help spread the Word with this book of devotional meditation by inviting others to join you in a group study.

  Mere Sexuality - Rediscovering...

  What do Christians believe about human sexuality? 
  In Mere Sexuality, author and pastor Todd Wilson presents the historic Christian consensus about human sexuality, the Great Tradition of the church for centuries as taught in each of its major expressions - Orthodox, Catholic, and Protestant. Wilson highlights the stunning shift of opinion on issues of sexuality in the evangelical church and why this break with the historic church is problematic for the future of Christianity. Along the way he provides ordinary believers with an introduction to the historic Christian vision of sexuality, yet does so in conversation with some of the twenty-first century’s leading challenges to this vision. 
  In a culture that is deeply confused about human sexuality, Wilson believes it is time for evangelicals to retrieve the historic Christian tradition and biblical teaching on the question of sexuality. Mere Sexuality seeks to guide readers back to the beauty and coherence of this vision of sexuality in the face of an aggressive and all-consuming pagan and secular worldview.
