Think Biblically Second Edition (Revised)
$39.9923 Essays Demonstrate How God’s Voice Guides Every Area of Life, from Science and Economics to Marriage and the Arts
What we think shapes who we are. That’s why the Bible tells us, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind” (Romans 12:2a). In a time of differing voices competing for our allegiance, we must learn to “think biblically” so we can distinguish good from evil.
In this collection of essays, John MacArthur and other teachers from the Master’s College confront the false worldviews that dominate our postmodern world. The authors provide models for cultivating a biblical mindset on worship, psychology, gender, science, education, history, government, economics, and literature. This second edition includes new chapters on hermeneutics, mental illness, complementarianism, and Christian liberal arts. Written for students as well as teachers and pastors, Think Biblically helps us navigate today’s culture with our thoughts and lives centered on Christ.
*Biblical and Practical: Edited by John MacArthur and Abner Chou, these theologically profound essays guide readers to discern God’s will and obey his word
*Comprehensive: Covers a wide range of issues, including psychology, gender, science, education, and economics
*Accessible: A great resource for high school and college students, as well as laypeople, pastors, and counselors
*Replaces ISBN 978-1-4335-0398-6

Set Me Free
Original price was: $22.99.$13.97Current price is: $13.97.Do you feel like you live life looking in from the outside? From the way you speak, to the color of your skin, to the way you vote, or the way you pray, you don’t fit the mold. And yet you find yourself still trying to prove yourself to others. In Set Me Free, New York Times bestselling author Lecrae invites you on a poetic and artistic exploration of how you can persevere against the lies of unworthiness to experience the freedom given to you in Jesus.
Under the weight of America’s racial history, church traditions, and cultural pressures, Lecrae found himself trapped in the belief that he had to earn his freedom or prove his right to be on the stage, or even in the pews of a church. As he learns to shed these old ways of thinking, Lecrae beckons you to step out of the beliefs that are holding you captive and to reconstruct your faith.
Within this inspirational collection of poetry and essays, you will experience:
*Raw, lyrical expressions of what it means to be unfree in America
*Confessional essays explaining Lecrae’s personal journey to claim his freedom and his faith
*Empowering words to help heal your wounded soul
*A testimony of God’s unfailing love and eternal acceptance
This book is perfect for:
*Followers of Jesus who feel disillusioned or who are deconstructing from their church experience
*Spiritual seekers who feel on the outside of modern religious institutions
*Fans of Lecrae’s music and album art
This dynamically designed collection is perfect to display on a coffee table or shelf. Provocative, vulnerable, convicting, and inspiring, Set Me Free is a poetry collection for our time.
