      Answers one of the biggest barriers to belief. Christians are increasingly seen as outdated, restrictive and judgmental when it comes to sex before marriage, cohabitation and homosexuality. In fact for many people, this issue is one of the biggest barriers for them considering Christianity. Sam Allberry, author of many books including Is God Anti-gay sets out God's good design for the expression of human sexuality, showing that God himself is love and that only he can satisfy our deepest desires. It is a great reminder of the Bible's positive blueprint for love, sex and marriage and ideal for giving away to people who may see this as a stumbling block for belief.

      The church has an image problem. It is widely viewed in the world at large as being outdated, boring, irrelevant and filled with backbiting hypocrites. How different that picture is to how the Bible talks about the new family that Jesus has gathered. It is a precious bride, a sparkling jewel, a lifeboat for forgiven sinners that is precious and holy; nurturing and warm; filled with truth, friendship and all embracing, forgiving love. Sam Allberry understands the collision between these two views, and how, even as Christian believers, we can lose sight of how truly wonderful church is and should be, and what a privilege it is to be part of, and to serve. In this brief accessible but thorough guide to church, Sam outlines what church is and why we need it. And how, when we have got it wrong, we can move closer to what a true church should be.

      James for You
    • Kościół i Biblia zdają się nie nadążać za nowoczesnym podejściem do homoseksualizmu. Czy Biblia zabrania małżeństw homoseksualnych? Czy można odrzucać miłość dwóch osób, które dają jedynie wyraz temu, jak zostały stworzone? Czy Bóg naprawdę jest homofobem? Ta krótka, przyjemna w odbiorze książka prezentuje pozytywne i wyzwalające odpowiedzi. Jasno i przystępnie wyjaśnia, czego możemy być pewni, jeśli idzie o biblijne stanowisko odnośnie małżeństwa, seksualności i pociągu do osób tej samej płci. Książka pomoże także odpowiedzieć na pytania, na które coraz częściej będziemy musieli dawać odpowiedzi: A moze zwiazek dwoch osob tej samej płci jest w porzadku, o ile pozostaja sobie oddane i wierne? Skoro Jezus nigdy nie wspominał o homoseksualizmie, to moze nie ma w nim nic złego? Czy nie wybieramy sobie czasem według własnego uznania, ktorych starotestamentowych praw przestrzegac? Czy sam tylko pociag do osob tej samej płci to grzech? Czy chrzescijanskie spojrzenie na seksualnosc jest niebezpieczne i krzywdzace? Czy chrzescijanin moze byc gosciem na slubie pary homoseksualnej? Co zrobic, gdy chrzescijanin zwierzy mi sie z uczuc homoseksualnych? O autorze: Sam Allberry to pastor, autor i mówca, członek zespołu International Ministries Raviego Zachariasa (RZIM). Napisał James for You (List Jakuba jest dla ciebie) oraz Why Bother with Church? (Po co zawracać sobie głowę Kościołem?).
