The Unstoppable Jesus Christ: How Your Faith Can Triumph in a World Gone Mad

Islam: Religion of Peace?
Maybe we should have a “Ramadan Alert.” Every time this “holy” season comes up on the calendar, the attacks by the jihadists increase.
This year, Ramadan began with a bang – actually several of them, as a number of Christians in Egypt were killed on their way to a monastery. On May 26, they were murdered in cold-blood by Islamic jihadists who asked them to renounce Jesus Christ or die. The Christians refused – God bless them – and they were murdered for it.

The Secret Battle of Ideas about God: Overcoming the Outbreak of Five Fatal Worldviews
A virus has been spreading across America, but many are unaware of its existence and of the potential fallout. Chances are you’ve already been infected without even realizing it. The virus is made up of dangerous ideas—worldviews that don’t reflect Jesus and biblical living.
According to a recent Barna study, only 3 percent of American evangelicals have an authentic biblical worldview. Dr. Jeff Myers, president of Summit Ministries, shines a light on the bad ideas that have been infecting Christians. As an authority on Christian worldview and apologetics, Dr. Myers explains Secularism, Marxism, Islam, New Spirituality, and Postmodernism, and teaches Christians how to understand what they believe, why they believe it, and how to defend it against the idea viruses of the day.
