| Total Truth: Liberating Christianity from Its Cultural Captivity by Nancy Pearcey Total Truth is a powerfully clear, readable, and far-reaching analysis of modern worldviews and the need for a Christian worldview that does not isolate faith from society at large. It’s a must-read for anyone who is serious about being a Christian in today’s world. (Crossway 2004) | | What Have They Done with Jesus? by Ben Witherington III Witherington cuts through all the ridiculous theories and speculations floating around out there and gives us logical, reliable information about the history of early Christianity.

After you’ve read this book, you’ll be armed with all the truth and confidence you need to counter their absurd logic. (Crossway 2004) |
Inspiration
| Heaven by Randy Alcorn Heaven is a vague concept for many Christians, but it won’t be after reading this book. With a thoroughly scriptural approach, Alcorn challenges many of the assumptions we and our culture have developed about where believers go when we die. It’s illuminating and inspiring. There’s also a children’s version to help you answer all those questions your kids have. (Tyndale 2004) | | Closer Than Your Skin: Unwrapping the Mystery of Intimacy with God by Susan D. Hill This is an excellent book for anyone who wants a deeper, more personal relationship with God. It bridges a gap between God as we perceive Him (often distant and detached) and God as He really is (close and very involved). It will help you open your eyes to how He´s speaking and working in your life right now. 2(Waterbrook 2008) | | Holding Nothing Back: Embracing the Mystery of God by Tim Hughes You may know of Tim Hughes through his worship songs ("Here I Am to Worship"), but his insights translate well in prose too. This book will stir up a sense of awe and wonder as you contemplate God´s glory. (Regal 2007) |

It’s one of our most popular resources, published in NLT and NIV by Tyndale. | | The Journaling Bible If you like margins to write notes or personal thoughts in, you’ll love this ESV (English Standard Version) Bible. One variation looks just like a black Moleskine notebook, only a lot thicker. (Crossway 2006) | | The Archaeological Study Bible Want to know more about the Midianites? The symbolism of temple construction and artifacts? What Baal worship was really like? People may call you a Bible nerd, but you’ll learn a lot from this thick but fascinating NIV (New International Version) Bible that makes centuries of academic research accessible to common readers like us. Includes tons of illustrations and maps. (Zondervan 2006) |
