Beloved by generations of readers, the Chronicles of Narnia are thought, erroneously, by some to be "mere children's stories". In this volume, Joseph Pearce thoroughly debunks the error as he skillfully explains why there is nothing "mere" about such stories.

In a culture in which science is believed to hold the answers to every question, spiritual realities like the soul are often ignored or ridiculed.

When most parenting books were written decades ago, they did not address - nor could they address - all the issues parents would face today in the era of technology and excess. Parents do not need another article that contradicts the last one they listened to; rather, they need insights, techniques, and strategies to tackle the issues of 21st-century parenting. That's what the Understanding and Loving Your Child series of books will do.

Many of us tend to live as though Jesus represents the "spiritual part" of our lives. We don't clearly see how he relates to the rest of our experiences, desires, and habits. How can Jesus, the Bible, and Christianity become more than a compartmentalized part of our lives? Highly regarded New Testament scholar and popular teacher Jonathan Pennington argues that we need to recover the lost biblical image of Jesus as the one true philosopher who teaches us how to experience the fullness of our humanity in the kingdom of God.

Culture is saturated in self-interest and self-preservation, and the church has become complacent—and complicit. Many Christians want God to move—but only if they don't have to move.

Tozer turns to Bible passages and stories like Abraham and Isaac, unpacking them to reveal spiritual truths crucial to a lifetime of fruitfulness and power: unwavering obedience.
