Education for Human Flourishing
Discipleship & Christian Education
“Spears and Loomis take us on a careful and detailed journey through Western philosophic history and its forever-diminishing impact on the classical Judeo-Christian ideals of education. They trace the decline from the optimism of the Enlightenment, unable to engage metaphysical truth, to the narcissism of scientific naturalism, to the skepticism and confusion of today's postmodern chatter. Fortunately they do not leave us here but begin to reestablish the ideas around which we can rebuild an education for true human and cultural flourishing.”
Apologetics
“Brian Morley has produced a remarkable volume on Christian apologetics that begins with an insightful schema of the foundational tenets of ten distinct approaches to apologetics, followed by chapters detailing the principles and primary proponents of a good number of them. As if this were not enough, Morley treats us in the beginning to a rich chapter on the history of apologetics, beginning in the first century and concluding in the present, as well as an introduction to apologetics in the Bible revealing that the call for us to 'be always ready' existed from the very beginning when God first created apologetics.”
Apologetics
“He sees what made us strong in the past and the consequences of our rejection of Biblical truths in shaping our lives and our nation. May we have ears to hear and eyes to see.”
Evangelism & Missions
“Luke Cawley's book is a brilliant resource for anyone interested in any form of Christian apologetics—for evangelists, teachers, pastors and indeed for anyone who wants to engage those who don't understand what Christ offers that the culture cannot. The book is full of captivating snippets of conversations you and I have every day. It will make every reader more able to understand those who do not know Christ and more able to present him in ways they can understand. Cawley covers the gamut of unbelievers—skeptics, atheists, the unchurched and the spiritual but not religious. Importantly, Cawley is not afraid to engage the serious topic of spiritual reality. The text is highly accessible without compromising depth and should be read by all who ever want to talk with nonbelievers.”
