True boundaries are not built out of human selfishness. They are built out of holy duty. Walk down the aisle of any modern bookstore, and you will find dozens of books teaching you how to build a boundary. But modern psychology has hijacked the word. Today, a "boundary" is treated as a selfish weapon used to evade hard work, demand emotional comfort, and manipulate others. It leaves men and women fragile, bitter, and isolated. In Boundaries: The Law of Self-Governance, David Michael Curtis completely shatters the modern therapeutic myth. Grounded strictly in the King James Bible and the ...

Smith offers a groundbreaking exploration of the foundational beliefs that defined first-century Christianity, rooted solely in the Old and New Testaments. Unlike traditional systematic theologies that blend scripture with post-biblical ecumenical creeds and denominational confessions, this work focuses exclusively on the authentic doctrines of the Early Church. With precision and clarity, Smith examines eight core theological pillars—theology, anthropology, hamartiology, christology, pneumatology, soteriology, ecclesiology, and ...

Biblical womanhood - the belief that God designed women to be submissive wives, virtuous mothers, and joyful homemakers - pervades North American Christianity. From choices about careers to roles in local churches to relationship dynamics, this belief shapes the everyday lives of evangelical women. Yet biblical womanhood isn't biblical, says Baylor University historian Beth Allison Barr. It was born in a series of clearly definable historical moments.  

EXPERIENCE THE EARLY CHURCH. Forced from her home after the stoning of Stephen and persecution of believers in Jerusalem, Libi and her family now live in the city of Antioch. Days pass quickly in a community where the oppressed are in great need, and Libi finds every opportunity to serve alongside other believers despite growing obstacles and a lack of resources.

There is much at stake in God making humanity male and female. Created for one another yet distinct from each other, a man and a woman are not interchangeable — they are designed to function according to a divine fittedness. But when this design is misunderstood, ignored, or abused, there are dire consequences.

God turns scars into testimonies. We all carry wounds―some we caused, others that were done to us. Anxiety, depression, other forms of mental illness, trauma, burnout, and disconnection plague us. Too often, we try to ignore the pain, pretend we’re fine, and go on with our lives...and it...

A terrific resource for anyone wrestling with this topic.” —Dr. Michael Bird, ...
