We live in a culture that more and more questions authority, truth
claims, and traditional beliefs. So what are we to believe about

other religious texts? Why should we trust its claims?
In "Why Believe the Bible?," esteemed Bible teacher John MacArthur
asks--and definitively answers--these questions and many more,
including
-Is the Bible the Word of God?
-Can we prove the Bible is true?
-How did the Bible come to be?
-What does it mean that the Scriptures are "inspired?"
-What did Jesus believe about God's Word?
-Who decided which books were part of the Bible?
Skeptics, new Christians, and longtime believers will find in this
accessible book clear answers to vexing questions about the book
that has arguably had more impact on the world than all other books
combined. Includes a Bible reading plan with study tips and an
appendix with helpful tools for Bible study.

2014 Word Guild Award (Biblical Studies) Named a 2014 Jesus Creed
Book of the Year (Theology) Best Theology Book of 2014, Englewood
Review of Books Best Book of Biblical Studies for 2014, Hearts
& Minds Books In recent years, more and more Christians have
come to appreciate the Bible's teaching that the ultimate blessed
hope for the believer is not an otherworldly heaven; instead, it is
full-bodied participation in a new heaven and a new earth brought
into fullness through the coming of God's kingdom. Drawing on the
full sweep of the biblical narrative, J. Richard Middleton unpacks
key Old Testament and New Testament texts to make a case for the
new earth as the appropriate Christian hope. He suggests its
ethical and ecclesial implications, exploring the difference a
holistic eschatology can make for living in a broken world.

Approximately three fifths of the emigration from the United
Kingdom to America arrived in the 19th century. The remainder came
through Ellis Island between 1900 and 1924. Arrivals from the U.K.
began to increase in the mid-1840's with the Irish Famine that led
to very high mortality rates, rising prices and unemployment and a
massive outflow of Irish population to the U.S. In the post-Famine
period, England's industrial revolution progressed and emigration
continued to grow between the prosperous 1850's and the mid-1890's.
This series on Emigration from the United Kingdom to America
concentrates on U.K. emigration in the period 1870-1897, listing
migrants from the U.K. who arrived in New York. The original
passenger lists transcribed by shipping agents and ship's officers
and filed by all vessels entering U.S ports have been used in the
preparation of Emigration from the United Kingdom to America.
Presented in chronological order by each ship's date of arrival,
these passenger lists provide the names of ships, ports of
departure, and arrival and debarkation dates. The researcher can
also locate data regarding a person's age, sex, and occupation, as
well as village of origin and destination when reported. An
important feature of Emigration from the United Kingdom to America
is the extensive surname index of ships' passengers included in
each volume. These indexes, containing approximately 3 million
names for the period 1870-1897, will greatly facilitate the task of
finding an ancestor's family name, especially when the exact date
or port of arrival in the United States is unknown. In addition to
the passenger lists and name indexes, Emigration from the United
Kingdom to America includes an introduction to the history of the
U.K. migratory movement to the U.S. This series is an invaluable
reference work for anyone interested in studying family history or
in genealogical research.
Envy might well be termed the silent sin. Because while all of us
envy others to some extent, few of us acknowledge our problem out
loud, let alone try to overcome it and move forward. Bob Sorge
draws upon his own pastoral experience--plus the admitted burden of
his own envy--to show why and how it can adversely affect the
ministry of a church and even prevent revival in people's lives.
Sorge reveals why comparison of our ministry and spiritual gifts to
that of our fellow believers is to be avoided at all costs so that
we do not hamstring God's plan for our growth and the
accomplishment of His purposes. This is a must-read for leaders of
all churches, great and small--and anyone who wants the peace that
comes with a life free of envy.
Why do religion and science often appear in conflict in America's
public sphere? In Seeking Good Debate, Michael S. Evans examines
the results from the first-ever study to combine large-scale
empirical analysis of some of our foremost religion and science
debates with in-depth research into what Americans actually want in
the public sphere. The surprising finding is that apparent
conflicts involving religion and science reflect a more fundamental
conflict between media elites and ordinary Americans over what is
good debate. For elite representatives, good debate advances an
agenda, but, as Evans shows, for many Americans it is defined by
engagement and deliberation. This hidden conflict over what
constitutes debate's proper role diminishes the possibility for
science and religion to be discussed meaningfully in public life.
Challenging our understanding of science, religion, and conflict,
Seeking Good Debate raises profound questions about the future of
the public sphere and American democracy.
"This handsome volume, one of a group commemorating the
seventy-fifth anniversary of the University of California, caps the
prolific and extraordinarily varied publications of the most
distinguished of living American anthropologists...In this book
[Kroeber] demonstrates his control over amazing ranges of world
history. Kroeber's versatility and intellectual robustness are all
the more refreshing when viewed against the background of the
narrowness and overspecialization, the relative isolation from the
main currents of contemporary thought, and the inbred parochialism
which have, on the whole, characterized twentieth-century
anthropology. Configurations of Culture Growth deserves those
abused adjectives 'great' and 'monumental.' " From: Clyde Kluckhohn
1946 review of "Configurations of Culture Growth." (American
Journal of Sociology, vol. 51, no. 4, p. 336-341).
"There must be more to the Christian life than this-more than
church each Sunday and waving to my neighbors and giving some
clothes to Goodwill when I go through my closet each spring." These
aren't bad things, of course. But they're safe and comfortable and
easy. And there's a reason they're not satisfying your desire for
something more significant and meaningful-we're created by God for
adventure. International Justice Mission president Gary Haugen has
found that engaging in the fight for justice is the most deeply
satisfying way of life. This book shows how we too can be a part of
God's great expedition.
