DOWNLOAD EBOOKRobert Mounce, who was for 21 years a regular columnist in 'Eternity' as well as the author of several popular articles in such publications as 'Christianity Today', here demonstrates his scholarship, lucidity, and pastoral heart in this commentary designed to meet the needs of laypersons and pastors looking for a balanced, effective, and relevant interpretation of Peter's epistles. Mounce sees the keynote of the letters as hope, but the main purpose as hortatory - that is, they were written to encourage believers in Asia Minor to expect and endure hardship as a result of their commitment to the Christian faith and to stimulate them to wholesome thinking vis-a-vis false teachers who had risen within the church itself. Central to Mounce's commentary is the remarkable fact that although the letters are packed with imperatives, they do not merely offer ethical instructions or lessons for living, but move freely from doctrine to duty and back again. Thus, the purpose of doctrine is seen here as less to instruct than to provide the theological basis for a new way of living. More specifically, because Christians have been born anew to a living hope, there is a serious challenge to holy living. Mounce effectively updates this challenge, applying it to modern living - and chapter titles such as How to Get Along With Your Spouse, Living in an Alien Society, and How to Live in the Family of God reflect the author's timely and practical application. Study questions are included to facilitate individual and group Bible study.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLife in a broken world is complicated, and does not lend itself to simple explanations. Where do we turn to help us find hope in this life? In this book, Hope in a Broken World, Joe B. Lamphere shows us inspirational stories in the Bible about godly men and women who have been preserved for us as examples of faith as a response to suffering, difficulty, and injustice. God's Word teaches us how the "faith challenges" of those who lived so long ago can shape our character and help us get to know the Lord better in our lives today. Each chapter features a faith principle, a memory verse, a question to think about, and insightful ways to exercise faith not only when you endure trials of many kinds but how to persevere and rejoice in the midst of them. Things are changing at a rapid pace. The good news is that God is in controleven when things look like they're out of control. God is still in control. It's encouraging to know that God takes broken hearts and spirits and kindly restores, heals, and transforms them. In these troubling times, there is hope. The hope we have is Jesus. Our hope in this life is anchored on the very promises of God, the character of God, the faithfulness of God, and the sovereignty of God. 2

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Hope and Despair of Human Bioenhancement is a virtual dialogue between Transhumanists of the “Oxford School” and the thought of Joseph Ratzinger. Set in the key of hope and despair, it considers whether or not the transhumanist interpretation of human limitations is correct, and whether their confidence in the methods of human enhancement, especially through biotechnology, corresponds to genuine hope. To this end, it investigates the philosophical foundations of transhumanism in modernity’s rejection of metaphysics, the triumph of positivism, and the universalism of the theory of evolution, which when applied to anthropology becomes the materialist reduction of the human person. Ratzinger calls into question this absolutization of positive reason and its limitation of hope to what human beings can produce, naming it a pathology of reason, a mutilation of human dignity, and a façade of a world without hope. In its place, he offers a richer concept of hope that acknowledges our contingence and limitations.
