The Bible is a cobbled-together selection of ancient writings that have been changed so many times by so many people over hundreds of years that surely the text can no longer be trusted, right? Certainly, there are plenty of people who take this view. Author Timothy Paul Jones addresses the fact that the Bible is a difficult book to believe. It is full of incidents that seem highly improbable, if not impossible. Especially suitable for people who are skeptical of its accuracy and of its authority, this book takes a reasonable look at the claims made about the Bible.

In Relationships: A Mess Worth Making, Tim and Paul discuss the relational disappointments that we all suffer both in and out of the church. But they are also optimistic about the power of Christian beliefs to redeem and restore our relationships.

Understanding Christian Apologetics presents in counterpoint form five popular approaches to the defense of the Christian faith that have developed throughout history—from the early days of Christianity through to our practices today.

The reason we misunderstand what Jesus meant is because we make assumptions. We assume Jesus taught universal truths to a timeless audience instantly understood in any culture or language today. We assume our translated Bible verses make the meaning of anything Jesus said plain and simple to understand. But Jesus didn’t teach in a timeless vacuum. The minds and hearts of his first-century audience were already full of ideas and ambitions and stories shaped by their historical moment. Rabbis and rebel leaders, Greeks and Romans, apocalyptic priests and the wealthy elite had already been ...

The Bible tells us that the congregation gathered around God's heavenly throne will be "a vast multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language," all singing the praises of the Lamb. God's intention has always been to delight for all eternity in a redeemed community of ethnic diversity. But this diverse community shouldn't have to wait until eternity to begin! It can be a reality in our own local churches here and now. Patterned after a worship service, In Church as It Is in Heaven gives biblical warrant for such a community.

It’s time to open your eyes to the freeing power of authentic grace—grace that releases us from trying to earn God's favor, grace that enables us to rest in the finished work of Christ, grace that liberates from the tyranny of trying to please others. That's what the theology of Martin...

Obsession Depression and Madness goes deep into the psychosis of a man who lives with schizophrenia. It deals with the obsessive thinking that results from having delusions of persecution. It is very intense to say the least. It will take your mind to places you could only imagine. It will definitely make you feel for the author. These are poems from the vault of Timothy Paul Brown along with some recent poems. They were excluded from his other books for fear of judgement. He no longer is afraid to reveal these innermost thoughts, ideas, emotions and experiences to the world.

The confusion brings the listener down a path of empathy for the writer, sympathy for the writer, hope for the writer, and ultimately love for the writer.

The entire Christian faith depends on the belief that Jesus of Nazareth rose from the dead. If there was no empty tomb, Christians have an empty faith. But how can we be confident the resurrection really happened? In this concise booklet, author Timothy Paul Jones addresses the doubts and questions that arise from Jesus's resurrection as recorded in the New Testament. Jones argues this story is not a mere repetition of old pagan tales or a fabrication to fulfill Jewish expectations.

Top scholars and apologists join bestselling author Timothy Paul Jones and cohost Garrick Bailey on this thoughtful but lighthearted exploration of evidences for the truth of Christianity.

Parenting AAA targets the three biblical child-rearing themes of authority, associations, and appropriation. The opening authority section balances rules, relationships, and biblical reasoning. The middle portion on associations teaches about people (friends and spouses) and separation from worldly influences. The final chapters address your children's appropriation of your faith as their very own. Generational spiritual reproduction is God's goal for your family—not simply keeping your children in church through their teen years.

What if I took 50 men and we went out to the city and we began praying over people and handing out sandwiches and handing out tee shirts that said, “Can't we all get along?” Will we accomplish as much doing that than if we decided to go out and pray over our city and pray that the spiritual forces that are binding people would be removed from this area, so that the Spirit of God would be free to flow? Then we would be the front line. We're going to clear the way for the Holy Spirit to come in and do what the Holy Spirit wants. And so, we are going to accomplish more because we've ...

Genius or Lunatic goes deeper into the mind of a paranoid schizophrenic. There is so much confusion in there. So much contradiction. So much religiosity. And there is much desire to know, understand, and find the truth. Along the ride you will find yourself saying, "But in this poem didn't he just say this"? It will bring out emotions that you won't expect. This brings you into his pain and lets you experience it firsthand.

Schizoetry by definition means: a literary work fusing poetry with the mind of a schizophrenic. This is a genre that I created.

It gives insight as to how we think, feel, perceive, and process information.

The purpose is to give the listener a different take on what they understand to be true about the illness. You may even identify with some of the experiences expressed throughout this work of art.
