Imagine what our world might look like if Christians became known for remarkable love, as well as life-giving truth. The stakes are high and the need is great for Christians to represent Jesus to a watching world. And today, we have more influence than ever before--for better and for worse. We are among the first generations to have access to a global megaphone through social media. But it's not enough to speak truth louder to a noisy culture. To counter the reputation Christians have earned, our love must be just as loud. Ask evangelist Matt Brown, and he will tell you Christians today are facing a crisis of influence. In our rush to speak truth to today's tensions, cultural issues, and trending controversies, it becomes all too easy to focus on proving our points rather than extending God's grace. Conversely, when we seek only to love yet never proclaim a better way, we short-circuit God's plan. Truth Plus Love invites you to rediscover the biblical framework for engaging culture as ambassadors of Christ. Through biblical insight, cultural analysis, and practical principles, Matt Brown outlines how to champion truth without compromise, how to love unconditionally, and ultimately, how to step into this great adventure of representing God to the world. It's hard, it's messy, and it's the unfinished project of a lifetime, yet here we find our great adventure: representing God to a watching world.

God¿s Way to Live by Eternal Destination Mission While modern living affords humans access to almost anything the mind can think of, it is easy to imagine how even the most well-meaning Christians can fall from the path of righteousness and throw away the gift of salvation they had come to accept from the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. Thus comes God¿s Way to Live by Anita Pinkins, to remind those of the faith to be steadfast in the practice of conducting their daily affairs properly, in keeping with how followers of Christ should live in this, one of the most subtly trying times for all those in the fold. God¿s Way to Live contains words of wisdom, reminders, and a pocketful of biblical treasures to fill the hearts of adherents with clean inspirations as they tackle everyday routine. About the Author Anita Pinkins is a mother of two and works for a bus company in Chicago, Illinois. During her free time, she enjoys reading biblical scriptures, listening to music, as well as dancing.
