Making Believe responds to a remarkable flowering of art by Mennonites in Canada. After the publication of his first novel in 1962, Rudy Wiebe was the only identifiable Mennonite literary writer in the country. Beginning in the 1970s, the numbers grew rapidly and now include writers Patrick Friesen, Sandra Birdsell, Di Brandt, Sarah Klassen, Armin Wiebe, David Bergen, Miriam Toews, Carrie Snyder, Casey Plett, and many more.

In The Teaching of Jesus Concerning the Kingdom of God and the Church, Geerhardus Vos (1862-1949), Professor of Biblical Theology at Princeton Theological Seminary, describes the Messianic work of Jesus as the realization of Old Testament revelation. Vos says the kingdom of God was inaugurated by the resurrection and ascension of Jesus, but that it awaits consummation at the end of the world. Vos concludes that religion alone can act as the supreme unifying factor in the life of man, leading it to its final goal in the service of God.

Pourquoi les chrétiens se réunissent-ils pour rompre le pain ? La nuit où il a été trahi, Jésus a pris un dernier repas avec ses disciples. Qu’y avait-il de si important dans ce repas ? Que signifie-t-il pour la vie de l’Église aujourd’hui ? Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul explique les origines de ce que nous appelons maintenant la sainte cène ainsi que la signification du pain et du vin. L’auteur rappelle aux croyants l’importance de ne pas prendre ce repas à la légère et de préparer leur cœur avant de recevoir les éléments.

Les cinq points du calvinisme décrivent comment les chrétiens sont sauvés et pourquoi ils sont préservés éternellement. Cette doctrine nous ramène au temps où nous avons été librement choisis. Elle sonde les mystères de l’œuvre de Christ, qui a acquis pour tous les enfants de Dieu le don de la foi. Elle pénètre l’âme humaine, lui permettant d’entrevoir les mystères de l’œuvre accomplie par l’Esprit, alors qu’il obtient la victoire complète sur notre rébellion et fait de nous les captifs volontaires de Jésus, le Roi.

Il est fréquent d’entendre les gens parler de santé, de richesse et de prospérité comme étant des signes de la bénédiction de Dieu. Cependant, Jésus a dit que ce sont les pauvres, les persécutés et les personnes qui souffrent qui sont bénis. Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul examine une section bien appréciée du Nouveau Testament appelée les « béatitudes ». Il utilise les célèbres paroles prononcées par Jésus au début du sermon sur la montagne pour expliquer que la vraie bénédiction n’est possible qu’en saisissant la grâce de Dieu en Jésus-Christ.

One of Bounds’ last published works, The Weapon of Prayer, emphasizes his belief that seeing God’s power, experiencing His miracles, and participating in His works relies on dedicated prayer. While receiving prayers is important to God, this communication is crucial for His people. Prayer is not only a religious responsibility, but it is also worship, growth, power, and the Christian’s lifeline. Bounds encourages Christians to practice and sharpen this weapon of strength in order to fully appreciate the gifts that can come from God.

Selon certains sondages, la plupart des hommes et des femmes croient que les gens sont fondamentalement bons. En fait, la Bible révèle que l’humanité a bel et bien été créée bonne. Et pourtant, nous connaissons tous des personnes qui nous ont fait du mal ou qui en ont fait à d’autres. Nous avons nous-mêmes commis des actes répréhensibles. Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul explique comment nous sommes devenus moralement corrompus et à quel point notre corruption est profonde. Nous ne faisons pas seulement des erreurs, nous péchons contre un Dieu saint.

Greatly revered by religious scholars both in her own time as well as today, St. Theresa of Avila’s words hold immense peace, wisdom, and encouragement in the walk of faith. She gives priceless guidance on such issues as prayer, connecting with God, meditation, and ultimate contentment and joy in Christ.

As May settles into family life, she has so much to be grateful for. Yes, there are plenty of challenges as she continues to heal from the demons of her past, but her loving husband and sweet children are the greatest earthly gift she could ask for. And having Oba in their home is almost more precious than she could have imagined . . . at least, if it weren't for his ongoing anger and hardness of heart. May's children are steadily growing older, and eventually they begin to face relationship struggles of their own. Can May help them navigate the turbulent waters of young love?

Clinton has died and May is left to fend for herself in a city where she knows almost no one and has no way of earning a living. Not knowing where Oba had wound up and realizing she can't return to her uncle's home after all he'd put her through, she decides to journey to the Amish community where she spent her first years, before her parents' died. Perhaps the relatives who once turned her away had had a change of heart and would be willing to take her in or help her get settled on her own.

In this brief treatise, Professor Rookmaaker explores the value of art in the Kingdom of God. He asks, what is the God-given purpose of our talents? What of those talents whose only contribution is beauty? He insightfully examines the spiritual crisis in current art, the effect of a meaning vacuum on art and society as a whole. He admonishes Christian artists (and us all) to "weep, pray, think, and work" as our means of seeking the Kingdom of God, and his encouragement kindles our spirits and moves us, in our art, whatever our art, to do the truth.

While most of us barely begin to even consider the “why” questions, Arthur W. Pink plainly declared the unpopular truth about the root cause of all human maladies. In his incisive way, Pink explained that the reason for the human condition is a spiritual one. Man has been a rebel against his Maker ever since the rebellion of our first parents in the garden of Eden. In this book, there are unique insights into depravity not commonly found in the more modern writings on the topic, as well as very precious truths about the finished work of Jesus in saving sinners.

There has been renewed interest in the five points of Calvinism among many Christians today. But these doctrines are not a product of the twenty-first century. So where did they come from, and why are they so important? Dr. W. Robert Godfrey takes us back to 1618-19 when the Canons of Dort were written in response to a mounting theological assault on Reformed Christianity. Now, for its four-hundredth anniversary, he offers a new translation and pastoral commentary on the canons, equipping the next generation with these God-glorifying truths.

People in Glass Houses tells how a small church in a suburban Australian school hall became a multimillion-dollar tax-free enterprise and a powerful international force. Providing memorable portraits of charismatic leaders Brian and Bobbie Houston, this is a powerful, personal, and at times very funny exploration of an all-singing, all-swaying mega church. The church is more than a faith—it’s a brand. And one fraught with scandal.

Gennaio 1964. Otto reportages al seguito di Paolo VI: un viaggio storico in cui per la prima volta un Pontefice visita i luoghi di Gesù.

In 1902, Mary Baker Eddy gave her annual communion message to members of her church. With the title, “The Old and the New Commandment,” she addresses the topics: “God as Love;” “Love one another;” and “Godlikeness.”

In 1900, Mary Baker Eddy offered this timeless message to members of her growing First Church of Christ, Scientist. In it, she encourages right thinking, right acting, and right working, along with unselfishness, charity, receptivity, and obedience to God.

Mary Baker Eddy's "Message to The Mother Church for 1901" offers insight into the nature of God’s infinitude; Christ; the pastor of the Church of Christ, Scientist; medicine; and other topics relevant to the practice of Christian Science today.

This sermon, given by Mary Baker Eddy, is based on Jesus’ statement: “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover” (The Gospel of Mark, chapter 16).
