However, he did come to faith and now leads a large church in Boston, MA. In the tradition of C.S. Lewis's "Mere Christianity", "Not the Religious Type" explores the reality of faith in a postmodern world, and suggests a new, unexpected way of seeing the world and our place in it.

Defending Your Faith: An Introduction to Apologetics
R.C. Sproul
Retail Price: $19.99
CBD Price: $14.99
( In Stock )
Excerpt
The defense of the Faith is an old and honorable Christian tradition, and should be part of every Christian's repertoire. To aid both fledgling apologists and seasoned veterans in this, R. C. Sproul (The Holiness of God) has produced a book both simple in language and complex in depth to speak to the Church as a whole. Divided into 6 sections, each addressing crucial elements in the study of apologetics, Sproul brings the reader through the full spectrum, from the role apologetics plays in a saving faith through foundational studies of knowledge, reason, and the existence of God, discussing how secular philosophers have misunderstood the Faith, and finally to a presentation of a case for biblical authority. In a manner honed by years of being on the forefront of applied apologetics and a heart for equipping the Church, Defending Your Faith clearly illustrates the need for authentic and fearless defenders of the Faith.

Letters from a Skeptic: A Son Wrestles with His Father's Questions About Christianity
Dr. Gregory A. Boyd, Edward K. Boyd
Retail Price: $16.99
CBD Price: $12.99
Buy 38 or more for $12.34 each.
( In Stock )
Excerpt
Greg Boyd is an apologetics professor at Bethel College. When he became a Christian, his father, Ed, thought he had joined a cult. For fourteen years, Greg tried to talk to his father about Christianity, with little success. Then, in what he saw as a last ditch effort, Greg invited his father participate in a dialogue through letters in which Ed could express all his doubts and questions and Greg could attempt to answer them, and prove the validity of his own views. To Greg's surprise, his father agreed. This book is the collection of those letters.
Who is this book for? It has a wide potential audience. Its a great example of the power of apologetics, and could be used in a classroom setting to stimulate discussion. Its also a hopeful example for those who have loved ones not yet saved (Ed became a Christian after three years of dialog with Greg). But its also valuable for people who are already Christians, on two fronts. One, its helpful for those seeking answers to questions provided by friends and loved ones. Two, its a wonderful exposition of basic Christian beliefs, and can help believers strengthen their faith.
Honest, thought-stimulating, intelligent, well-written. A good addition to any library.

Who Moved the Stone?
Frank Morison
Retail Price: $10.99
CBD Price: $8.99
Buy 48 or more for $8.54 each.
( In Stock )
Excerpt
The strangeness of the Resurrection story had captured Frank Morison's attention, and, influenced by skeptic thinkers at the turn of the century, he set out to prove that the story of Christ's Ressurrection was only a myth. His probings, however, led him to discover the validity of the biblical record in a moving personal way. Who Moved the Stone? is considered by many to be a classic apologetic on the subject of the Resurrection. Morison includes a vivid and poignant account of Christ's betrayal, trial, and death as a backdrop to his retelling of the climactic Resurrection itself.

John MacArthur

( Available to ship on or about 12/15/09. )
Right now, Truth is under attack and much is at stake. In a postmodern culture, Christians are caught in the crossfire of alternative Christian histories, emerging faulty texts, and a cultural push to eliminate absolute Truth altogether. As a result, many churches and Christians have been deceived. Worse still, they propagate the deception that poses itself as Truth! In The Truth War, John MacArthur reclaims the unwavering certainty of God's Truth and anchors Christians in the eternal, immovable promises found in His Word.
