    The Choice: Should the Church Affirm LGBTQ+ Identities and Ways of Living?

    $13.99
    Ron Highfield has made a significant contribution to the present-day discussion of LGBTQ+ claims by a tight focus on the work of Karen Keen. Highfield’s The Choice is a careful and erudite analysis of Keen’s work that uncovers a species of argument being offered from many quarters. First, he lays bare Keen’s postmodern substitution of feeling and rhetoric for Scripture and sound reasoning. “From the postmodern perspective,” he notes, “autobiography is argument.” In such a case, Scripture can be displaced by personal desire. Second, he skillfully explains the implications of such an approach to an orthodox view of the Bible. If only those historic demands of Scripture that pass muster with one’s self-defined notions of kindness, justice, love, secular psychology, and minimal human suffering (i.e., inconvenience, restraint of desire) are obligatory to Christians, we are back to the ancient times in Israel when every individual is a law to her/himself. Contrary to Keen’s claim to show how evangelicals can defend an “affirming” case for same-sex marriage, Dr. Highfield demonstrates that her case abandons an orthodox view of God-breathed Scripture in order to read into the Bible what our postmodern culture otherwise could only wish it had said.

  • The Fear of Eden (with study guide)

    $9.99$13.99

    The Fear of Eden is unlike any book you have read. Miller is intensely serious about living according to the Word of God. He first sets out basic Biblical narratives that tell of what God has done and how he expects humans, made in his image, to react. From here, Chuck turns to Proverbs and Psalms to discover God’s basic instructions for life. These two Biblical works contain the wisdom of God. Chuck stresses that according to the Word, fear is the beginning of wisdom. The person who really wants to know God’s way needs to approach the God of the Bible in great awe and trembling because of his majesty. The fear of God and attention to wisdom are essential for spiritual formation and growth toward spiritual maturity.

  • Why We Stayed: Honesty and Hope in the Churches of Christ

    $9.99$12.99

    The Church of Christ, at this present hour, is host to a multitude of frustrated and disenchanted ministers and scholars. From the inside of ministry, the veneer of our movement disappears and the blemishes take center-stage. Discouragement is common. In response to this state of affairs, we asked an eclectic cast of authors, ministers, and scholars to answer the question, “Why did you stay within our movement?” The result is a diverse set of answers which we hope will create some hope for the future of our people.
