Cliffe Knechtle offers clear, reasoned and compassionate responses to the tough questions skeptics ask.
It's natural for you to have questions about Christianity. What does Jesus really have to offer in a world that is so complicated, where there's so much pain? What difference could he possibly make in your life? For years Cliffe Knechtle has been fielding questions about and objections to Christianity from thousands of people. They want to know what you want to know--what does Jesus have to do with the real world, with real life? In this book Knechtle provides the answers to some of the toughest questions you have, including Don't all religions teach the same thing? Why do Christians try to impose their morality on others? What is so valuable about life? What is God's answer to evil in the world? Why can't people seem to get along with each other? Why is forgiving others so difficult? Isn't God kind of old and boring? How do I know I can trust Jesus? I still have some doubts. Can you help me believe? Life isn't easy. And what Knechtle offers you in this book are not pat answers. Rather, they are direct responses to real people with real questions. If you have questions about Christianity, Help Me Believe will grapple with them squarely, honestly and helpfully.
Does God exist? Are morals relative? Is Jesus Christ reliable - and is He God? Can I trust the Bible? Why is there so much pain and suffering in the world? These are but a few of the questions repeatedly posed to university campus open-air Christian apologist Cliffe Knechtle from Connecticut. Cliffe has criss-crossed the USA for more than 30 years fielding the toughest questions our bright young minds can throw at him. Perhaps you have seen him yourself on one of the dozens of campuses he has visited over the years, ardently defending the Christian faith. This book discusses the top questions Cliffe is asked, his answers, and their merit.
In twenty-two chapters this book touches on all practical life issues as they relate to Christian beliefs. Faith, the author, contends affects the way people spend their money and fill in their day timer. It impacts on their everyday life, their attitude at work, in play and their expectations for the future. It provides food for thought for non-believers and inspiration for Christians.
To some, the concept of having faith in a higher power or a set of religious beliefs is nonsensical. Indeed, many view religion in general, and Christianity in particular, as unfounded and unreasonable. Norman Geisler and Frank Turek argue, however, that Christianity is not only more reasonable than all other belief systems, but is indeed more rational than unbelief itself. With conviction and clear thinking, Geisler and Turek guide readers through some of the traditional, tested arguments for the existence of a creator God. They move into an examination of the source of morality and the reliability of the New Testament accounts concerning Jesus. The final section of the book deals with a detailed investigation of the claims of Christ. This volume will be an interesting read for those skeptical about Christianity, as well as a helpful resource for Christians seeking to articulate a more sophisticated defense of their faith.
What if the core arguments for atheism reveal that God actually exists? With a rising dependence on science and rational thought in today’s culture, religion is often dismissed as “outdated” or “illogical” and atheism is gaining a wider audience. But award-winning author Dr. Frank Turek provides a strong case for how atheists steal logic, reasoning, evidence and science from God in order to support their claims. A result of careful study, Stealing from God exposes the intellectual crimes atheists are committing by taking a closer look at: Causality—how did the universe originate? Reason—what does atheism mean for truth? Information & Intentionality—God’s signature in creati...
Banished for their crimes, four robots are bound to each other's fates in this sci-fi graphic novel. Each found guilty of an irredeemable crime, four robots find themselves banished from their home world and bound together by the Kill Lock–a programming link that means if one of them dies, they all will. Now a soldier, an addict, a murderer, and a child find themselves forced to protect each other while in search of a cure to survive. Their only clue is a bot known as The Axial, supposed to be the creator of the Lock and keeper of its secrets.
Just a few years ago a small group of faith-filled Christians took to the crime-ridden streets of Brixton in London. Now over 125 teams serve their communities all over Britain, involving more than three thousand Christians. More projects are starting all the time, and enquiries come from all over the world, in response to the problems of gun and knife crime, binge drinking, gang culture, loneliness, violence and fear. Les Isaac tells this compelling story with its hallmark of partnership between local government, police and churches, and points out the benefits for Christian mission and unity.
