Wells of Living Waters is a message of the Holy Spirit for the church to remain strongly rooted in the foundational truths inherent in God's Word. Its purpose is to bring back those foundational teachings that Satan has been...

In spite of the availability of God's amazing grace to all persons all over the world, there are many, even Christians, who still fail to make full use of it. They continue to struggle in every area of their lives even though they have complete access to the supernatural provisions of God available in His grace. Sam presents a well-thought out case for vigorously pursuing a real and personal encounter with God's grace both for Christians and non-Christians...

Jesus tells us that if one desires to be his disciple, they must "deny himself and take up his cross and follow me" (Mark 8:34). But what does it mean to take up your cross, and how can we do this? The apostle Paul said that he "desired to know nothing...except Jesus Christ and him crucified" (1 Corinthians 2:2) and elsewhere even claimed to "have been crucified with Christ" (Galatians 2:20). How can one join Paul and know Jesus in his Crucifixion?

Nine years ago a thirty-second phone call changed my life. I was hosting the annual Christmas luncheon for our staff when I slipped out to get the results from a recent blood test. The voice on the other end of the line announced, "Your PSA is 3.5." The blood drained from my head as a bowling ball dropped into my stomach. Usually any number below 4.0 is, considered normal. But, I had undergone a prostatectomy six weeks earlier. My PSA should have...

"Images increasingly saturate our world, making present to us what is distant or obscure. Yet the power of images also arises from what they do not make present-from a type of absence they do not dispel. Joining a growing multidisciplinary conversation that rejects an understanding of images as lifeless objects, this book offers a theological meditation on the ways images convey presence into our world. Just as Christ negates himself in order to manifest...

"How foolish you are, and how slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?" And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself. (Luke 24:25-27)
There's a selfish part of me that wanted to write everything that I know at this point, and the amateur in me wanted to write it all in one book, on the...

Hogar es una de las palabras más evocadoras e inquietantes de nuestro idioma. Como cualquier otra palabra, es simplemente un conjunto de consonantes y vocales, pero posee la extraña capacidad de decirnos mucho y una capacidad casi mágica de tocar nuestras almas. ¿Por qué es esto?
¿Qué tiene esta palabra? ¿Por qué parece tener una habilidad tan especial para tocarnos tan profundamente?

This work began about fourteen years ago, when I became troubled about the fall of man in Genesis 3, so I began talking to God about this incident, because I didn't understand how all the evils that befell mankind had occurred from such a short conversation between the serpent and Eve. As time passed and after years of debates and arguments with God about this, not only did He give, me an understanding of the fall and all its ills, He also gave me...

Christianity is, based upon claims that are nothing short of remarkable.
So what exactly is Christianity? It stands on these four pillars:
1. We claim there is a God.
2. We assert that God came to earth as man, lived a sinless and blameless life, and willingly sacrificed himself as a solution to sin and a means to reconcile man with God.
3. We also claim that the crucifixion of this man was not the end of the story. Indeed, it was just the start of...

When we observe a tension between Jesus and Caesar, we acknowledge that a fundamental tension remains at the heart of Christianity. When this tension is poorly understood, Christians face disastrous consequences. The tension is not between religion and atheism or secularism. Nor is it between organized religion and personal spirituality. The tension is located within the heart of Christianity itself because it is a radical conflict between true and...

Jesus Christ is the most written about and proclaimed figure of all of history. Why, then, are people so confused as to who He is? Why are Christian churches redefining Him to suit the culture and their own preferences? This book challenges the idea of a Jesus remake. It is the author's understanding of Him from well over sixty-five years of a personal relationship and study. It aims toward those who have given up on Jesus, because the portrayal of...
