What will Christ's glorious return to earth be like? How can we get ready for it? Recent years have generated a great deal of talk about a rapture, a great tribulation, an Antichrist, a millennial reign of Christ on earth, a restoration of Israel, and other prophecies. Sorting out fact from fiction, Kuyvenhoven offers a clear, Reformed perspective on issues surrounding the end times--and provides a faith-nurturing journey that helps us live in the faith of our Lord's return.

The gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John each offer their own unique descriptions of the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. Together they make up a rich multifaceted portrait. But what do you do when the gospels differ or even seem to contradict each other? With John Timmer as your guide you'll explore this question and its implications for how you see Jesus.

If you think bioethics is just for doctors and scientists, think again. Bioethics touches our everyday lives in so many ways. We ask questions like How should I care for my aging parents? Is stem cell research OK or not? How can my church help a person with a chronic illness? When's the right time to remove a loved one from life support? Author Ruth Groenhout, selected as the 2009-2010 Calvin College Worldview Lecturer, presents these issues from the Bible's perspective using accessible, easy-to-understand language. Discussion questions in each chapter make this book an excellent choice for group study or personal reflection.

This book for adult small groups reexamines biblical teaching on the work of the Holy Spirit, particularly with respect to such gifts as speaking in tongues, miraculous healing, and spiritual warfare. Algera, a CRC pastor, builds a strong case for taking seriously the "third wave" of renewed interest in the Holy Spirit's gifts, especially the more charismatic gifts. Each chapter includes "Reformed Reflections"--testimonies from church leaders throughout history--as well as study questions and lists of additional resources.
