For readers of all denominations and backgrounds, Not So Black and White equips us to engage together in the intentional work of dismantling racism, just as the gospel calls us to do.
Highly regarded preacher and teacher Bryan Chapell shows readers how he has prepared expository sermons according to the principles he developed in his bestselling "Christ-Centered Preaching." This companion volume provides concrete examples of how a redemptive approach to Scripture is fleshed out in various types of sermons and various genres of the Bible. The example sermons not only demonstrate different approaches but also are analyzed for pedagogical purposes, helping readers move from theory to practice. In essence, the book allows students and preachers to look over Chapell's shoulder as he prepares these messages to learn how to construct their own expository sermons that communicate grace and truth from both the Old and New Testaments.
Everywhere you look these days, there's sex, violence, and depravity perverting our minds, infecting our hearts, and corrupting our souls. It's coming through the internet, television, magazines, and music, invading our schools, our churches, our communities, even our homes. Mothers, fathers . . . it's time to fight back. And Rebecca Hagelin's bold new book "Home Invasion "tells you how. This brave and bracing book is your weapon in the struggle to preserve childhood as a place of innocence for your young children, and to help your teens tower above the culture that seeks to rob them of strong character and their best future. Providing much-needed support and encouragement, Rebecca Hagelin― |
