The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God: Why New Atheism Grew Old and Secular Thinkers Are Considering Christianity Again
Justin Brierley is convinced that in our time we are witnessing a growing wave of faith.
Famously described as the “long, withdrawing roar” of the “Sea of Faith,” the Christian narrative that shaped the West has been replaced by sweeping secularism. But is that the end of the story?
Readers will encounter Brierley’s discussion of cultural trends and concepts including:
*The meaning crisis
*Public intellectuals embracing faith
*Why the Christianity story is ready to return
And much more In The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God, Brierley outlines the dramatic fall of New Atheism and the birth of a new conversation on whether God makes sense of science, history, culture, and the search for meaning. People are returning to Christianity―but is the church prepared to welcome a new wave of faith?

Emotionally Healthy Christianity: Following in the Psychological Footsteps of Christ
The road to emotional health goes through the life of Jesus Christ. He modeled for us what the most important psychological attributes are when it comes to how we, as His followers, are supposed to live our lives. Emotionally Healthy Christianity covers twelve of the most important psychological traits of Christ that we are to focus on in our efforts to experience true emotional health. Included is a 16-week workbook so readers can put what they learn into practice.
Jesus Christ was the perfect expression of psychological health in a human being. With God's help, we can follow in Christ's footsteps and experience a fuller taste of the abundant life.
