If In Doubt - By Rhys Stenner

“Sometimes doubt is lack of assurance in an uncertain outcome,” writes Rhys Stenner in his new book If In Doubt? But doubt can be the result of lazy thinking or deliberate obfuscation of the facts. It can be positive in building one’s views if it sparks valid questions and cause you to investigate issues in order to discover truth. In this book, Stenner focuses on the fundamental questions of human existence. These are questions every sentient being should and must be asking and searching for answers. Why? Because eternity is a long time to be wrong! Some of these questions that Stenner presents in this book are: Did God make the world? Is there right and wrong? Is the Bible reliable? Is Jesus God? Did Jesus rise from the dead? Is there life after death? Is Jesus coming back? Stenner does not merely give the standard Christian response to these probing questions but provides alternative views and arguments as well. This allows the reader to discover if the Christian answer is tenable or not. Both believers and skeptics should read this book.

The Stream by James Robison

“It is hard these days not to wonder whether we are still seeing the sunrise or sunset,” writes James Robison in his latest book The Stream, “when it comes to freedom as we have been blessed to know it in America.” His attempt in this book is that Americans must experience a change of heart and mind and it must come sooner rather than later or it is going to see the downfall of freedom of this great nation. If we fail to realize this foolishness and the danger imposed by the hatred of success, blessings, and prosperity we’re going to be unable to meet any legitimate needs in the future of those we love. The Stream provides some refreshing and life-giving wisdom that must begin to disseminate freely if we are going to restore freedom and rebuild America. The renewal of America falls largely on the restoration of Christian principles and biblical foundations that has been the blue print of not only the United States but of Western civilization. Other have warned about this including Os Guinness and Vishal Mangalwadi and it is a warning that we must heed.
