How does a person come to faith in Christ? Is that faith a gift from God or the work of man or some combination of the two? As Martin Luther wrote long ago, the issue of who does what in the matter of salvation constitutes the most fundamental of questions that the believer in Christ must face. It was the question at the heart of the struggle to reform the church in the sixteenth century, and it has resurfaced as a source of contention within the evangelical church of our day. In The Gift of Faith, Bryan Holstrom offers a fresh exploration of the issues involved and the biblical basis for the traditional understanding that faith is a gift from God. He lays out the relationship between grace and faith, and argues that the teaching on salvation that is found in many churches today is derived more from the modern self-esteem movement than from a careful reading of the Bible. Most importantly, Holstrom demonstrates that what is ultimately at stake in the battle over grace and faith is our understanding of the glory of God. This book will help you discover how that glory shines through most brilliantly in his bringing sinners to salvation; a work that finds its beginning and end in his grace alone.

The Inspiring Love Story That Will Change Your Life 
Over one hundred years ago, an “unsinkable” luxury liner sank on its maiden voyage. More than 1,500 men, women, and children tragically lost their lives after the RMS Titanic struck an iceberg on the night of April 14, 1912. 
Shockingly, many who perished had refused to board the lifeboats at first, believing the ship as truly indestructible and would not sink! 
From that dark disaster shines an inspirational love story—the true story of one man’s great love for his Savior and for humankind. This is the story of John Harper, the Titanic’s last hero, who set his only child in a lifeboat before setting his sights on the salvation of the lost souls around him. 
Re-live John Harper’s last hours as the ship took on water and passengers swarmed the decks. “Let the women, children, and the unsaved into the lifeboats!” was Harper’s cry. 
Discover, through the testimonies of those who knew him, what inspired this man to go down with the ship and flounder in icy waters under a starry sky as he searched for doomed souls who needed his message of love and salvation. 
The Titanic’s Last Hero presents a hero whose courageous story you will never forget.

Whether in childhood, adolescence or adulthood, we all have experienced pain and disappointment. If not dealt with, these wounds begin to impact our everyday life at a crippling rate. We live bound by fear, insecurities, anger and jealousy; often chalking it up as normal . Yet, in reality, we are being held captive by what others have done to us. We desire freedom from our pasts and our pain yet struggle with how to attain it; we wonder if it is even possible. Addressing a broad spectrum of issues from common offenses to abuse and betrayal, the author leaves no question as to God s opinion of mistreatment, and how we can heal and live a life of freedom from our past and present hurts. With practical tools, you will discover that freedom isn t just possible; it s attainable.

Being a doctor and going to the doctor are theological issues. A major thesis of the book is that a de-medicalization of physicians is necessary and should be replaced by a Scripto-centric approach to life in the practice of medicine. This call is radical, humanly speaking, but we have a God Who has given much to us as Christian physicians and expects much of us. There is a biblical view of the practice of medicine, and it is the major avenue that patients have for reaching true comfort and help. Each physician must be able to articulate it and the book is written for that purpose. A rightly understood biblical view of medicine is the only way that doctors have for giving genuine hope to hurting people and for the advancement of God s kingdom.

There is no time that endurance is not needed. 
However, too often for the believer endurance is simply coping, accepting, tolerating, and just getting by. What a misconception of Paul’s words in Romans 8:35-37. Believers are more than conquerors. In John’s writings he emphasizes the true Nike, and it is not Michael Jordan. 
The true conqueror is Christ the King and the believer’s endurance is to be modeled after Him. Hurting people, sinned-against people, and sinning people need to know and apply Godly endurance. 
The joy of enduring God’s way is the privilege, blessing, and responsibility for all of God’s people no matter their age or spiritual maturity.

Endurance: What It Is and How It Looks in a Believer’s Life

The way to grieve God’s way is to model how Jesus grieved. 
The Bible teaches that Jesus grieved appropriately, properly, and with an eternal perspective. His grief was uncomplicated and forward-looking. Jesus’ motivation for all of life was pleasing His Father which influenced His perspective and response to the death of Lazarus, the fall of Jerusalem, and His own death. He knew and applied the principle of gain through loss. 
Because Jesus grieved God’s way, so too can the believer. Because Jesus lived and taught the principle of gain through loss, so too can the believer,. 
The believer is never under the circumstances and a victim but is instead more-than-a-conqueror, because he is in Christ Jesus.
