Dialogue and Antithesis: A Philosophical Study on the Significance of Herman Dooyeweerd's Transcendental Critique is a comprehensive examination of the philosophy of leading Dutch Christian philosopher Herman Dooyeweerd (1894-1977).

Is a doctrine of everlasting punishment in hell consistent with God's perfect love and perfect justice? And what implications does this traditional doctrine carry for the nature of divine grace and mercy. In Hell in a Nutshell Charles Watson, Sr., argues that we should not allow a received doctrine, such as the doctrine of hell, to determine our understanding of God's justice, love, and mercy; instead, we should allow a biblically informed understanding of these divine attributes to shape our understanding of every received doctrine, including the doctrine of Hell.

What if by using the principles of logical argument, we can identify a true religion? Could we then not identify its existence from among the world's religions? And should we not promote that religion as the one and only true religion? The idea of a Utopian religion shouldn't scare anyone, but rather it should be sought after and embraced. The idea that we as a people can identify a true religion means that we must discard false or illogical religion and religious concepts.

Do you ever struggle with matters of faith? Or wonder why you believe what you do (or don't), and whether it really matters? Are we always (or ever) able to simply choose what we believe? If not, what impact does that have on our ability to have faith, if any? Must genuine faith always be free from doubt? What if you're just honestly unsure about it all? Can one truly be both a Christian and an agnostic at the same time? If so, how? And what does it really mean to have faith, anyways? In Faith Seeking Belief, Bryan N. Smith presents an academic treatise in analytic philosophy of religion which seeks to wrestle with precisely such questions while also offering a fresh approach to answering them.

In this audiobook, Pendleton dramatically investigates the sciences, religions, and philosophies with a view toward dignifying the human experience and provides a frame work in which the individual listener may validate his/her own life and dreams relating to the whole. Don's slant into the material is unique; often humorous; the findings evocative; conclusions satisfying for the rationalist; inspiring; and, perhaps, even transformational for the true seeker.

This Will Make an Atheist Shit Their Pants is not your average spiritual book. It's short, it's sharp, and it doesn't waste your time. It won't try to convert you. It won't ask you to believe anything. It just lays the cards on the table and lets the chips fall where they may. It's part comedy, part cosmic wake-up call, and all JJ. This book is for anyone who's ever looked up at the sky and thought, "Wait... is this all there is?" It's for the ones who know there's something more but don't quite have the words for it yet. Spoiler Alert: You're not crazy. You're just waking up.

Have you seen a flying saucer? Have you ever wondered what they come here for? I used to think that only odd people saw UFOs, but I have changed my mind. People from all walks of life have reported them! They cannot all be wrong.

The spiritual power of the Feminine shines forth in this psychological study of four Old Testament heroines from Jesus’ family tree. Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, and Bathsheba are the only women mentioned by name in the Gospels’ genealogies and, for Ann Belford Ulanov, this indicates that they impart something essential to the lineage of Christ. By exploring their brave and unconventional lives, she demonstrates how salvation enters the world in the feminine mode of being human, through these women’s embodiment of such powerful and deeply feminine qualities as ingenuity, audacity, ...

We humans know that we're going to die. We hope that we will have some form of afterlife. But we know that our bodies decay. Therefore in order to have an afterlife there must be some part of us that survives death. We have come to believe in the concept of the soul. This book describes a possible scientific explanation for the soul and describes the ongoing tests by NASA and others that may lead to proof of some of the elements of the scientific speculations described in this book.

Arnold examines God and the Bible from a Rationalist's point of view.

Many individuals are not aware that there is a God. I am here to tell you, there is truly a God. God found me broken, in pain, and fragile. I almost lost my life at the hands of a violent partner in 2018 and then, after that, I was sexually assaulted as an adult-keep in mind I had been sexually assaulted by two individuals when I was eight. However, God spoke to me and told me to remember to never give up. And, because of my faith in God, I did not give up, and I will never give up.

WALKING IN LOVE. Nobody did it better than Jesus. Love ultimately led Him to the point of laying down His very own life for the sake of others. He set aside His personal preferences. He overlooked the wrongs He suffered. He was quick to forgive and quick to to restore. He prayed for those who despitefully used Him. And what a difference He made because of that. Multiplied millions of lives have been changed because this one Man dared to obey God and walk the Love Walk.

In Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita, the narrator offers a memorably brief account of his mother’s death: 'picnic, lightning'. Picnic Comma Lightning similarly opens with the death of Laurence Scott's parents, and the definitive ending of their death raises for him one fundamental question: how much of what we live through is truly real? With humour and insight, Scott transforms this personal meditation on loss into an exploration of what it means to exist in the world now.
