Reading Augustine presents concise, personal readings of St. Augustine of Hippo from leading philosophers and religious scholars. Todd Breyfogle's On Creativity, Liberty, Love and the Beauty of the Law introduces readers to Augustine's understanding of law as an arena in which the possibilities of creative freedom are reconciled with the needs of natural and civil order. It places Augustine's conception of law in the broader mosaic of his ideas about how human beings are bound together individually, socially, and spiritually. Seasoned readers of Augustine will see this fundamental element of his thought in a different light, even as those less familiar with Augustine are introduced to the thrill of following how he makes sense of the complexities of nature, history, and the human spirit.

Living Confidently in God's Unfailing Love Grace is amazing because it is God's provision for when we fall short of His standards. Unfortunately, too many of us embrace grace for our salvation but then leave it behind in our everyday lives. We base our relationship with God on our performance rather than on His love for us, even when we intuitively know that our performance cannot earn us the love we so desperately crave. Isn't it time to stop trying to measure up and begin accepting the transforming power of God's grace? The product of more than ten years of Bible study, Navigator author Jerry Bridges's Transforming Grace is a fountainhead of inspiration and renewal that will show you just how inexhaustible and generous God's grace really is. This edition includes the full study guide, which was formerly available as a separate product (ISBN 9781600063046).

The battle for the soul of our nation is not figurative. It is real. It is relentless. It is as fierce as the battle for our own souls and is being orchestrated by the same principalities of darkness. The Jethro Project serves as a national impetus for Christian engagement in American politics and highlights the urgency with which believers must fight the culture war being waged in our states and communities by serving across the full political spectrum. This approach is modeled on a biblical passage in Exodus chapter 18, where Jethro, Moses’s father-in-law, instructs Moses on the most effective way to lead the Israelites after the Exodus—by implementing a representative construct of governance composed of honorable and wise leaders. Author Scott Jenkins explores the merit of our biblically based representative government, the Christian influence that drove our founding in 1776, the true constitutional design and intent of the First Amendment regarding the relationship between church and state, the manner in which America has strayed from these fundamental principles to our own detriment, and the need to return to the original intent of our Founders who established this one nation under God. This commentary presents a call to action for Christians to come to the defense of their God-given liberties and secure the freedoms won for them by the patriots of 1776 through active participation in local, state, and national politics.
