Michel Onfray - Atheist Manifesto artwork Atheist Manifesto
The Case Against Christianity, Judaism, and Islam
Michel Onfray

Publish Date: April 01, 2011
Publisher: Skyhorse
Seller: Simon & Schuster Canada

This hugely controversial work demonstrates convincingly how the world’s three major monotheistic religions—Christianity, Judaism, and Islam—have attempted to suppress knowledge, science, pleasure, and desire, condemning nonbelievers often to death. Not since Nietzsche has a work so groundbreaking and explosive questioned the role of the world’s three major monotheistic religions. If Nietzsche proclaimed the death of God, Onfray insists that not only is God still very much alive but also increasingly controlled by fundamentalists who pose a danger to the nature of human morality. Documenting the ravages of religious intolerance over the centuries, the author makes a strong case against the three religions for their obsession with purity and their contempt for reason and intelligence, individual freedom, desire, and the human body, as well as their disdain for women, sexuality, and pleasure. In their place, all three demand faith and belief, obedience and submission, extolling the “next life” to the detriment of the here and now. Tightly argued, this is a work that is sure to stir debate on the role of religion in American society—and politics.

OVER 50,000 COPIES SOLD! How do we live faithfully in a country becoming more and more hostile to our faith in Christ? Like the Israelites in Babylon, we must find a way to maintain our faith in the midst of a pagan culture.

In The Church in Babylon , Dr. Lutzer answers both of these questions. He will walk you through the many parallels between the church in America and God’s people in Babylon, and embolden you to be a gospel witness. You’ll be encouraged not to compromise your faith even when under constant pressure from all corners of society. And more than all this you will have a fresh encounter with Jesus Christ, as you consider the biblical role of those in exile.

Seller: Hachette Digital, Inc.

The Impossible reveals prayer's immediate and powerful impact through the true account of a family whose son died and was miraculously resurrected. Through the years and the struggles, when life seemed more about hurt and loss than hope and mercy, God was positioning the Smiths for something extraordinary-the death and resurrection of their son. When Joyce Smith's fourteen-year-old son John fell through an icy Missouri lake one winter morning, she and her family had seemingly lost everything. At the hospital, John lay lifeless for more than sixty minutes. But Joyce was not ready to give up on her son. She mustered all her faith and strength into one force and cried out to God in a loud voice to save him. Miraculously, her son's heart immediately started beating again. In the coming days, John would defy every expert, every case history, and every scientific prediction. Sixteen days after falling through the ice and being clinically dead for an hour, he walked out of the hospital under his own power, completely healed. The Impossible is about a profound truth: prayer really does work. God uses it to remind us that He is always with us, and when we combine it with unshakable faith, nothing is impossible.

Publisher: The Crown Publishing Group
Seller: Penguin Random House Canada

During our chaotic times, discover five forgotten values that can spark internal growth and help us reconcile our Christian faith with the complexities of race, sexuality, and social justice. WINNER OF THE CT BOOK AWARD Most believers live in the state of “being a Christian” without ever being deeply formed by Christ. Our pace is too frenetic to be in union with God, and we don’t know how to quiet our hearts and minds to be present. Our emotions are unhealthy and compartmentalized. We feel unable to love well or live differently from the rest of the world—to live as people of the good news. New York pastor Rich Villodas says we must restore balance, focus, and meaning for our souls.  The Deeply Formed Life  lays out a fresh vision for spiritual breakthrough following five key values: • Contemplative Rhythms Value:  slowing down our lives to be with God. • Racial Justice Value:  examining a multi-layered approach to pursuing racial justice and reconciliation. • Interior Examination Value:  looking beneath the surface of our lives to live free and love well. • Sexual Wholeness Value:  exploring how our sexuality connects with our spirituality. • Missional Presence Value:  living as the presence of Christ in a broken world.  The Deeply Formed Life  is a roadmap to live in the richly rooted place we all yearn for: a place of communion with God, a place where we find our purpose. Praise for The Deeply Formed Life “ The Deeply Formed Life  is a book for our time. Honest, wise, insightful, funny, and—above all—deep. The way Rich and New Life Fellowship hold emotional health and racial justice together is beyond inspiring. This is spiritual formation for the future of the church.” —John Mark Comer, pastor of teaching and vision at Bridgetown Church and author of  The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry  “I’ve studied the Bible under Pastor Rich’s leadership for close to a decade. The core values he shares in this book serve as guidance, not only for how we should live as Christians in an ever-changing world but also for how we can live a life of purpose—that consistently and enthusiastically points to Jesus.” —Susan Kelechi Watson, actress from the awardwinning television series  This Is Us

Publisher: SPCK
Seller: Perseus Books, LLC

Making use of his true scholar's understanding, yet writing in an approachable and anecdotal style, Tom Wright captures the verve and sparkle of these letters. Paul wrote the letters while in prison facing possible death, but their passion and energy are undimmed. They reveal Paul's longing to see young churches grow in faith and understanding, rooted in Jesus himself, and to see this faith worked out in practice - in one case, through the rehabilitation of a runaway slave. Wright's stimulating comments are combined with his own translation of the Bible text.

Finding and following the God's will for you
A.W. Tozer
Genre: Christianity
Price: $2.99
Publish Date: April 07, 2020
Publisher: GENERAL PRESS
Seller: Ingram DV LLC

An important theme in A.W. Tozer’s ministry was the subject of God’s will for each of our lives. He wrestled with it from the time he was a new Christian until the day he passed into eternity. Throughout A Cloud by Day, A Fire by Night – he discusses the battles Christians face almost every day. He frames these battles as taking place in Canaan, as he calls it – the land of promise where we are living today. Tozer could look at something so negative and find positives from a spiritual point of view. So much in life can bring us to that point of discouragement where all we want to do is quit, especially when God’s will for us is unclear. This book is about more than finding God’s will for your next step or decision in life—it is about following His will to the end. With only our human resources, following God would be impossible. But when we cross that line into the deeper life, we enter into the grace of God that enables us to do His will. About the Author: Aiden Wilson Tozer was an American evangelical pastor, speaker, writer, and editor. After coming to Christ at the age of seventeen, Tozer found his way into the Christian & Missionary Alliance denomination where he served for over forty years. In 1950, he was appointed by the denomination's General Council to be the editor of 'The Alliance Witness'. Born into poverty in western Pennsylvania in 1897, Tozer died in May 1963 a self-educated man who had taught himself what he missed in high school and college due to his home situation. Though he wrote many books, two of them, 'The Pursuit of God' and 'The Knowledge of the Holy' are widely considered to be classics.

Strength to Love includes these classic sermons selected by Dr. King.

Seller: Hachette Livre

Avec le développement spectaculaire de l'intérêt pour les religions et le mysticisme d'Orient, de plus en plus de gens sont fascinés par les montras, ces formules sacrées que l'on apprend par coeur pour la méditation en Inde, en Chine et au Tibet. Leur signification précise et la manière dont ils opèrent exactement ont été - à juste titre - longtemps tenues secrètes afin de les préserver contre les déformations et les abus. Dans ce livre, John Blofeld (1913-1987), autorité reconnue en matière de yoga contemplatif bouddhique, explique le sens et le fonctionnement de ces «mots de puissance» sacrés que les méditants psalmodient d'une voix sonore et rythmée ou répètent intérieurement, en visualisant les syllabes d'où émanent des rais de lumière éblouissante. L'efficacité des mantras pour aider à la méditation est avérée; mais de nombreuses personnes croient que ce sont les syllabes elles-mêmes qui possèdent des pouvoirs merveilleux ou miraculeux. C'est cet aspect-là, le plus controversé, que John Blofeld examine avec une grande pénétration. La majeure partie de ses connaissances provient d'une expérience directe et de la bouche même des moines et des lamas rencontrés tout au long d'une existence entièrement passée en Orient. John Blofeld (1913-1987) est connu pour ses nombreux écrits sur le taoïsme et le bouddhisme chinois. Mu toute sa vie par une quête spirituelle, il a vécu à plusieurs reprise en Chine. Il a fréquenté de très nombreux monastères en Asie ou il a reçu des enseignements du Chan et du bouddhisme vajrayana. Ses ouvrages traitent essentiellement de ces aspects.

In  Nothing to Prove  she calls us to… * Find freedom from self-induced pressure by admitting we’re not enough—but Jesus is.  * Admit our greatest needs and watch them be filled by the only One who can meet them.  * Make it our goal to know and love Jesus, then watch what He does in and through us.   As you wade into the refreshing truth of the more-than-enough life Jesus offers, you’ll experience the joyous freedom that comes to those who are determined to discover what God can do through a soul completely in love with Him. * * * * *  “These pages are what your soul is begging for" —Ann Voskamp   “ Nothing to Prove  takes us on a journey toward freedom from the need to measure up.” —Mark Batterson   We love this glorious and universally resounding message.” —Louie and Shelley Giglio   “This book will help you take your eyes off your problems and put them back on God’s promises.” —Christine Caine
