Conundrums are the hurdles in our race to complete the great commission. They can make you run slower or trip you, so the race is never finished. Thus, the ideal solution is to remove the hurdles altogether. A conundrum is a “confusing and difficult problem or question”, which is often a roadblock to progress until and unless it is confronted and resolved. In this audiobook, I hope to address four primary categories, which in my opinion, have done damage to our efforts of fulfilling the Lord’s direct mandate.

Christ returns to bring his message of love to humanity. In the fall of 2003, Rev. Lea Chapin began to receive divinely inspired messages from Jesus Christ. Christ's desire is for humanity to reawaken to their own divinity and to embrace and embody his teachings in their fullest essence. These teachings are known as The Twelve Mastery Teachings of Christ. Each mastery lesson holds and carries the vibrational essence of Christ's healing power of love.

A lot of time and money is spent by Christians who have a passion to spread the gospel. Across the globe, this effort is paying off as seekers find Christ, the source of truth and peace. In many cultures, though, appeals made on behalf of the Christian faith are met with blank stares, indifference, even mocking hostility. Ken Ham, one of Christendom's most astute observers of evangelism, is convinced that compromise with evolutionary world views has virtually crippled preaching and teaching efforts, especially in Western societies.

Floyd believes followers of Jesus spend too much time worrying about making mistakes when sharing their faith. All they really need to do is to invite their friends to read the New Testament with them, add some coffee and food, and jump in. His audiobook shows the fainthearted believer how to do this.

Religion says, "Change and you can join us." Jesus says, "Join us and you will change." There's a huge difference. Being a sinner doesn't disqualify anyone. Being an unbeliever doesn't disqualify anyone. In fact, following Jesus almost always begins with a sinner and unbeliever taking one small step. In this eight-session audio Bible study (guide sold separately), pastor and best-selling author Andy Stanley takes small groups on a journey through the Gospels as he traces Jesus' teaching on what it means to follow.

Christians have some navigating to do. The culture we live in hates the message we cherish. We know the gospel we share is offensive, but sometimes we make it more offensive by our behavior. Is there a way to share an offensive message to an offended culture while not being gratuitously offensive? Blake Long challenges evangelicals: Let the gospel do the offending, not us. The gospel is offensive enough. Our attitude - our smugness - shouldn't make the gospel harder to believe. Long helps us find the problem and points us to the solution: Jesus Christ.

Christians today are facing a crisis of influence. In our rush to speak truth to today's tensions, cultural issues, and trending controversies, it becomes all too easy to focus on proving our points rather than extending God's grace. Conversely, when we seek only to love yet never proclaim a better way, we short-circuit God's plan. Truth Plus Love invites you to rediscover the biblical framework for engaging culture as ambassadors of Christ. Through biblical insight, cultural analysis, and practical principles, Matt Brown outlines how to champion truth without compromise.

"And if someone asks about your hope as a believer, always be ready to explain it. But do this in a gentle and respectful way" (1 Peter 3:15-16, NLT). This book demonstrates again and again that talking about God is simple when we commit ourselves first to loving and listening to our friends. For people who are intimidated or fatigued by the idea of talking about matters of faith, Talking About God offers story after gripping story about faith conversations that avoid cliché and combativeness.

The subtle enemies that affect the soul-winning efforts of the local church have too long gone unnoticed as well as unchallenged. Dr. Jack Hyles, who at the time of his death pastored the church with the “World’s Largest Sunday School” and led the world’s foremost soul-winning ministries, contested these enemies one by one. These enemies must be exposed for what they are: a definite attempt by Satan to stop fundamental, soul-winning churches from doing the work God has ordained them to do. These insights given by Dr. Hyles may seem controversial, but they are logical as well as ...

In his bestselling book The Case for Christ, Lee Strobel retraced his spiritual journey from atheism to faith by showing how the evidence he obtained from experts in the field of history, archaeology, and ancient manuscripts led him to the verdict that Jesus truly was the Son of God. Now, in this six-week audio Bible study, Lee and coauthor Mark Mittelberg will equip you with practical tools to equip you articulate this same message to your unsaved friends and present evidence that backs up Jesus' claims and credentials.

Church Different: Unleashing the Church to Change the World sounds the urgent call for pastors, leaders and Christians to be and do church different. It’s not about getting better; it’s about getting different. And that starts by getting out of the seats and into the streets. When a church takes interest in the community, the community takes interest in the church.

Mark Young believes a revitalization of the evangelical movement must happen in our seminaries, where the shepherds of the next evangelicalism are being formed. Young argues that if these leaders of tomorrow are instilled with true gospel values, they will go on to form churches and missional organizations that offer a credible and compelling Christlike witness for the sake of the world. The Hope of the Gospel takes listeners through the history of evangelicalism and back to the present to make the case for how this can happen through a renewed vision of theological education.

Jesus promised, “Where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them" (Matthew 18:20). Writing in a positive, friendly, engaging style, the author encourages you to claim that promise and experience that presence, and walks you through it with practical how-to advice.

Christians from a low-church background do not have to be afraid of liturgy and sacraments. On the contrary, these ancient ways of engaging with Scripture and faith help us see the beauty and taste the grace of heaven through the incarnation of Jesus. Earth Filled with Heaven is an evangelical introduction to the theological framework and habits of the sacramental life. Author and Anglican priest Aaron Damiani translates this sometimes strange-to-us way of Christ-centered faith in an invitational and pastoral manner.

Lorenzo Lebrija, director of TryTank, a lab for church growth and innovation, has developed a fresh straightforward framework for experiments in new ministry based on research and interviews.

When Ray Comfort scooped up his tired dog as it ran beside his bike, the animal loved it. So he built a platform on the bike for Sam to sit on, added a seat belt, and put sunglasses on the dog. To his surprise, people came of their homes to take photos. Women called out, "How cute!" Drivers gave a thumbs up. Sam suddenly became a wonderful way to meet strangers. You may not have a dog you can use to reach the lost, but this book will tell you how you can use what you do have to fulfill the Great Commission. The book also looks at Jesus' last words on the cross, where He continually used ...

Are you a shadow Christian? Shadow Christians are people who work in the margins, in the shadows created by the spotlight shining on others. We often think they - we - are insignificant. But here’s the good news: God chooses and uses shadow Christians.
