Transformed by Love
You might think that a man who has authored several books, serves on several boards, was at one time known as an intellectual and a poet, and who eventually became president of Denver Seminary, might be intimidating and high brow. Not Vernon Grounds. In Transformed by Love, you'll discover a man who has earned the love and respect of all who know him, who persevered through some of the most turbulent years of modern evangelicalism, and who is a role model for living out faith, hope, and above all, love. Includes photographs.

Yes, But How?
A book lover once lent one of his prized volumes to a friend. The friend, upon returning it, confessed his puzzlement. As he had turned its pages, he had notice in the margins the cryptic initials YBH, followed by a question mark. YBH? So he asked his friend, "What is the meaning of that symbol you have jotted down in the margins of so many pages, YBH?"With a smile the book lover explained, "Oh, that means, 'Yes, but how?' I will be reading along, and I will agree with what the author writes, only to wonder about making his ideas work in life. 'Yes. But how?'"It's a good question, isn't it? "Yes. But how?" How do you change print into flesh-and-blood reality? How do you take a truth and translate it into action? YBH? So with ourselves. We want to be disciples of Jesus. We want to be productive Christians. We want to bear much fruit to the glory of God. We want all those gracious characteristics exhibited by our Lord to be reproduced in our own behavior.This book is intended to address ten essential principles of productivity and growth for those who take their Christian faith seriously and to answer that all-important question of application, "Yes, but how?" - Vernon C. Grounds
Where Is God When It Hurts?
Gold Medallion Book Award Winner. Over a million copies sold. An inspirational classic for more than thirty years,?Where Is God When It Hurts??honestly explores pain—from physical wounds to emotional and spiritual pain—and sheds new light on God's presence in our suffering. "How can a loving God allow this to happen? God is either all-loving or all-powerful, but he can't be both." You've heard that question, and perhaps you've even asked it yourself. When a loved one dies, we receive a terminal diagnosis, or natural disasters strike, people often wonder whether God is the?cause?of suffering and why he doesn't immediately take away the pain or fix the situation. As a result, we become ang...
Answering the New Atheists: How Science Points to God and to the Benefits of Christianity
In the face of increasing attacks on Christianity by militant new atheists, Christians should be able to robustly defend their beliefs in the language spoken by Christianity’s detractors—science. Atheists claim that science and religion are incompatible and in constant conflict, but this book argues that this is assuredly not true. In order to rebut the polemic agenda of the new atheists who want God banned from the public square, this book engages with the physical and natural sciences, social science, philosophy, and history. It shows that evidence from these diverse disciplines constitutes clear signposts to God and the benefits of Christianity for societies, families, and individuals...
Vernon God Little
“If Huckleberry Finn were set on the Mexican-American border and written by the creators of South Park, it might read something like this.” —San Francisco Chronicle Hailed by critics and lauded by readers for its riotously funny and scathing portrayal of America in an age of trial by media, materialism, and violence, Vernon God Little was an international sensation when it was first published in 2003 and awarded the prestigious Man Booker Prize. The memorable portrait of America is seen through the eyes of a wry, young protagonist. Fifteen-year-old Vernon narrates the story with a cynical twang and a four-letter barb for each of his townsfolk, a medley of characters. With a plot involving a school shooting and death-row reality TV shows, Pierre’s effortless prose and dialogue combine to form a novel of postmodern gamesmanship. “A dangerous, smart, ridiculous, and very funny first novel . . . Pierre renders adolescence brilliantly, capturing with seeming effortlessness the bright, contradictory hormone rush of teenage life.” —Sam Sifton, The New York Times
I Love Mormons
David L. Rowe asserts that many Mormons view Christian witnessing as Bible bashing. What Christians need to understand, he suggests, is that Latter-day Saints are an entirely separate ethnic group with their own history, values, and customs. Evangelizing Mormons can be so much more effective if Christians first know, understand, and respect Mormon heritage. With helpful illustrations and discussions of Mormon values and theology, Rowe calls Christians away from confrontational evangelism and instead suggests active listening and respect as a way to bridge Christian beliefs and Mormon culture. A glossary in the back of the book and discussion questions at the end of each chapter will help readers apply these concepts in their own witnessing experiences. In the end, Christians will be more approachable representatives of Christ.
