Are you aware of the underlying assumptions that determine your values? Have you given much thought to how assumptions about basic reality influence and shape our culture? Assumptions That Affect Our Lives examines the roots of the modern conflict between Christianity and secular humanism by comparing ancient Greek and Hebrew culture; going beyond values to examine the underlying worldview that shapes them. It is a process critically important for understanding ourselves, others and the times we live in.

The current tension between evangelical Christians and the non-biblical ideas present in this age is an old conflict. By viewing the current situation in the context of the ancient Greeks and Hebrews, contemporary Christians can be better equipped to deal with the challenges of living in a predominately ancient Greek-based culture today.

This is a ground breaking book.

Discussion questions included at the end of every chapter.

Germany, WW2, was a desperate and dangerous place where evil had bullied its way into power and controlled the daily lives of almost every individual. But not all. This book is the true story of Maria Zielfle’s struggle to raise her children free from the hate-filled grip of the Nazi regime. It is a powerful portrayal of the courage and determination of a Christian parent to remain obedient to God in spite of the enticements and assaults of a hostile culture.

And its a struggle that continues today. Our secular culture, filled with enticing messages and explicit images, applies relentless pressure on our children. If you’re tempted to give up and give in, you’ll find encouragement and strength in this inspiring story of how God, who is greater than any culture or government, honours the committments of those who are faithful to Him.

A truly touching and inspiring book, one which you will treasure.

Each year another class of high school graduates moves into a new phase of life. For those who come from faithful households, helping them remain faithful must be a top priority for their parents and churches. As these young people make decisions about education, career, finance, and marriage, they need to keep in mind the Biblical principles that should guide their adult lives.

In his book, Make It Your Ambition, 26-year-old John Notgrass expresses optimism about the role young adults can play in building strong families and strong communities of faith. Instead of following the example of those who leave the church and make unwise decisions after high school, they can set an example for others by their devotion to the way of the Lord.

Subtitled “Encouraging Young People to Live for God’s Glory,” John’s book is a call to action. Read the rest of this entry »
