There has never been a more important time for the church-and individual Christians-to intentionally leave a legacy of faith. Christians are facing a unique challenge in the 21st century. Will we leave a tangible reminder of our faith? Will we be able to transfer a vibrant picture of the Christian faith to the next generation? Will our children and grandchildren treasure our faith? Will they have the tools to defend the truthfulness of Christianity? If Christians are going to leave footprints of faith that can withstand the challenges of our time, we must evaluate our faith through the lens of the skeptical questions of our secular culture. In other words, we Christians cannot leave a clear footprint of our faith without giving answers to the challenging issues of our day. Our children, our family, friends, and our neighbors will increasingly be unable to embrace their faith unless they are given practical and relevant tools to answer key questions. This book is designed to help you defend your Christian faith and in the process leave a footprint for generations to admire and follow. The topics addressed in this book are not confusing or over your head. This book looks at ten vital footprints or steps in leaving a legacy of faith. Each of these topics has been shared with churches throughout the United States-all of them with a favorable response by the ordinary people in the pew.

Millions of Christians have struggled with how to reconcile God's love and God's judgment: Has God created billions of people over thousands of years only to select a few to go to heaven and everyone else to suffer forever in hell? Is this acceptable to God? How is this "good news"? Troubling questions—so troubling that many have lost their faith because of them. Others only whisper the questions to themselves, fearing or being taught that they might lose their faith and their church if they ask them out loud. But what if these questions trouble us for good reason? What if the story of heaven and hell we have been taught is not, in fact, what the Bible teaches? What if what Jesus meant by heaven, hell, and salvation are very different from how we have come to understand them? What if it is God who wants us to face these questions? Author, pastor, and innovative teacher Rob Bell presents a deeply biblical vision for rediscovering a richer, grander, truer, and more spiritually satisfying way of understanding heaven, hell, God, Jesus, salvation, and repentance. The result is the discovery that the "good news" is much, much better than we ever imagined. Love wins.

The name Josh McDowell promises real-life, on-the-street Christian apologetics. In his first Harvest House book, Josh joins his son Sean to draw on his life’s work and comprehensively address a vital issue: why an entire generation of young Christians—and millions of older believers—is confused about what they believe, why they believe it, and how it’s relevant. The Unshakable Truth is uniquely positioned for younger Christians because it presents apologetics relationally, focusing on how Christianity’s doctrines affect relationships. The authors... ground every assertion in the overarching story of creation, incarnation, and re-creation. distill 12 crucial “faith statements”—for example, “A personal Creator God exists.” explain why each statement is trustworthy, how it applies to real life, and—using examples, stories, and experiences—what its relevance is. A spiritual gold mine for parents, youth workers, pastors—anyone wanting to reveal Christianity’s relevance to today’s life and culture.
