Summary Of Paul Copan S Is God A Moral Monster

BOOK EXCERPT:

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The New Atheism is a recent movement of god-deniers writing bestsellers. It’s been said that the four horsemen of the Neo-atheistic apocalypse are Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, and Daniel Dennett. #2 The Christian faith has an image problem, and it is largely due to the New Atheists. They have capitalized on the West’s increasingly post-Christian status to tar all things religious with the same brush. But most people do not consider themselves atheists just because they have no church. #3 The New Atheists are right to point out that all religious believers are guilty of ignorance, immorality, and hypocrisy. They are also wrong to assume that their arguments against God’s existence are intellectually rigorous. #4 The New Atheists are not willing to accept the positive influence of Christian faith in the world, and they refuse to acknowledge the atrocities committed in the name of atheism by Stalin, Pol Pot, and Mao Zedong.

The Bible Salesman

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Preston Clearwater has been a criminal since stealing two chain saws and 1600 pairs of aviator sunglasses from the Army during the Second World War. Back on the road in post-war North Carolina, a member of a car-theft ring, he picks up hitch-hiking Henry Dampier, an innocent nineteen-year-old Bible salesman. Clearwater immediately recognizes Henry as just the associate he needs -- one who will believe is working as an F.B.I. spy; one who will drive the cars Clearwater steals as Clearwater follows along in another car at a safe distance. Henry joyfully sees a chance to lead a dual life as Bible salesman and a G-man. During his hilarious and scary adventures we learn of Henry's fundamentalist youth, an upbringing that doesn't prepare him for his new life. As he falls in love and questions his religious training, Henry begins to see he's being used -- that the fun and games are over, that he is on his own in a way he never imagined.

BOOK EXCERPT:

Age Range: 4 and up From the scores of beautiful and thrilling tales in the Bible, celebrated British author Amy Steedman has collected three dozen that are sure to delight young children. With the confidence of a master storyteller practiced in holding the attention of even the most restless child, she weaves tales of Noah and Moses, Solomon and David, and Daniel in the lion's den. She leads young listeners to marvel at prophesies of the coming Savior, to be charmed by the gentle goodness of His boyhood, and be dazzled by the scores of miracles that proved He is the Messiah coming to save Israel … and to save, as well, every little child who hears these stories! Continuing with stories about events after the Resurrection, Miss Steedman takes young readers along with Peter, Paul, and the Apostles as they carry the Good News to the ends of the Earth, and she even gives them a glimpse, with St. John, of the marvels promised for the end of time! Today, too many religious books for young children trivialize the story of salvation and its many tales of mystery and majesty! Not these classic read-aloud stories that have proven their worth for over a century now! These stories are suited to the unlimited understanding of young children; but they're proportioned as well to the immense powers of imagination which remain uncrippled in little children, leaving them for the meantime still able and willing to believe in the truth of good things, and in marvels they may not yet understand. Now is the time to read Amy Steedman's remarkable Bible stories to your child … to plant in their souls these sweet seeds of truth and beauty. Be patient! Not too long from now, you'll find them blooming into a mature and abiding faith in Jesus.

A Richard Selzer Reader

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

A Richard Selzer Reader: Blood and Ink is a career-spanning collection, including major short stories and essays by the renowned doctor-author. In the 1960s, while practicing as a general surgeon and teaching surgery at the Yale School of Medicine, Richard Selzer began publishing unique creative work in magazines such as Harper’s and Esquire. By 1985, when he retired as a physician to devote himself completely to writing, Selzer was already recognized as a pioneer in the field of medical humanities. When he died in 2016, as the author of 13 books, his influence was acknowledged by a younger generation of doctor-writers like Abraham Verghese and Atul Gawande. Selzer’s unusual style fuses scientific and poetic language. Drawing on favorite readings, from the King James Bible to the tales of Edgar Allen Poe, he used this style to convey a sense of awe at the beauty and complexity of the human body, even in the midst of suffering. While describing himself as an atheist, Selzer always searched for “sacramental” moments of courtesy, courage, and grace in medical encounters. Because he often looked critically at the failure of doctors to regard the full humanity of their patients, Selzer’s work has become required reading in many medical training programs. A Richard Selzer Reader includesseveral of the author’s most famous essays and stories, as well as two dozen selections that have not been collected in his previous books. Chronologically, the material ranges from apprenticeship stories (as far back as a high-school composition) to two odd self-portraits that remained unpublished at the time of Selzer’s death.Topically, the material ranges from meditations on the body, and on human mortality, to reflections on both medicine and writing as serious vocations. Along the way, Selzer celebrates the work of other doctor-writers, like Thomas Browne and Anton Chekhov, and in a series of previously unpublished diary entries he discusses the joys of nature, art, and family as bulwarks against the difficulties of growing old.
