  Never Beyond Hope

  $13.99

  For over three decades, LifeGuide Bible Studies have provided solid biblical content and raised thought-provoking questions–offering a one-of-a-kind Bible study experience for individuals and groups.

  Christianity And Pluralism

  $8.99

  Are the world’s great religions ultimately all the same?

  Christianity and Pluralism is a collection of concise yet thoughtful essays by J. I. Packer and Ron Dart, interacting with and responding to the four traditional models used to answer the existence of multiple faiths (exclusive, inclusive, pluralist, and syncretist), but focusing particularly that form of syncretism which claims that all faiths find commonality through their mystical traditions. Written in response to key events in the history of the Anglican church, Packer and Dart’s analysis gives us a perennially relevant model for how the church ought to respond to our own pluralistic culture with integrity and kindness – and how to uphold the distinctiveness of the gospel. Christians directly or indirectly engaging our pluralist world will find their ideas enriched by this short yet powerful book.

  Evangelism And The Sovereignty Of God

  $19.99

  Foreword
  Preface
  Introduction
  1. Divine Sovereignty
  2. Divine Sovereignty And Human Responsibility
  3. Evangelism
  4. Divine Sovereignty And Evangelism

  Additional Info
  If God is in control of everything, can Christians sit back and not bother to evangelize? Or does active evangelism imply that God is not really sovereign at all?

  J. I. Packer shows in this new edition to the popular IVP Classics how both of these attitudes are false. In a careful review of the biblical evidence, he shows how a right understanding of God’s sovereignty is not so much a barrier to evangelism as an incentive and powerful support for it.

  With over 100,000 copies in print, Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God is truly a classic that should be read by every Christian.
