The Trauma of Doctrine is a theological investigation into the effects of abuse trauma upon the experience of Christian faith, the psychological mechanics of these effects, their resonances with Christian Scripture, and neglected research-informed strategies for cultivating post-traumatic resilience. Paul Maxwell examines the effect that the Calvinist belief can have upon the traumatized Christian who negatively internalizes its superlative doctrines of divine control and human moral corruption, and charts a way toward meaningful spiritual recovery.
The internet is full of "experts" trying to make a buck on your desire to get in shape. Be honest: in your most desperate moments, what would you pay to feel like you have a real shot at getting your body into shape again? This book is meant to cut through all the B.S. of online fitness gurus and give you the commonsense principles that can bring you from "average" to "shredded" in 12 weeks. Stop paying for the Instagram Model's monthly rent by purchasing their "meal plans." Read this book, and realize you have all the resources to get fit on your own. To get your body in amazing shape, you don't need: "the secret carb/fat ratio" "this full-body workout machine" "my 30-Day meal plan" "our special fat-loss powder" "this special ab cruncher" Ignore all that garbage. It's meant to keep you in a cycle of purchasing fitness products over and over again that never work. Think about it: the fitness industry has an interest in you never getting in shape. But you can leave despair behind. Change your body, and change your life, with this simple realization: Getting Shredded Is Simple.

Hodges Supreme Court decision in 2015, sexual identity has dominated both public discourse and cultural trends—and yet, no historical phenomenon is its own cause.

In The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self, Carl Trueman carefully analyzes the roots and development of the sexual revolution as a symptom, rather than the cause, of the human search for identity. This timely exploration of the history of thought behind the sexual revolution teaches readers about the past, brings clarity to the present, and gives guidance for the future as Christians navigate the culture's ever-changing search for identity.
When Your Twenties Are Darker Than You Expected explores the darkest, most unmanageable emotions that your twenties grow in your gut: Depression, Suicidality, Regret, Grief, Doubt, Dissatisfaction, Anxiety, Loneliness, and Lust.
