Are We Living In The Last Days
$22.99Add to cartWill Jesus’s return be preceded by a single world government?
Will every person have a government-issued ID or mark?
Does Christ return once or twice?
Will believers go through a Great Tribulation?
Will there be a literal battle of Armageddon?
Does it even matter what we believe about future events?
Biblical prophecies about the end times have confused, confounded, and even divided God’s people for centuries. But the reason Scripture gives us hints about the future is to provide the encouragement we need to endure the present, confident that God keeps his promises.
In this balanced look at four major views of the end times, bestselling author Bryan Chapell explains the primary ways Christians have interpreted biblical prophecy about the last days, not so that we might pick a hill to die on but so that we can cling to what unites us in Christ.
No matter what end times view we find most compelling, in God’s plans we can find strength for today and hope for tomorrow. -

Gospel According To Daniel
$21.00Add to cartOften we read the book of Daniel in one of two ways–either as a book about a heroic man whose righteousness should inspire us to keep the faith no matter what our circumstances, or as a roadmap to the end times that can, through careful study, perhaps tell us the day and hour (or nearly so) of Christ’s return. Both, says Bryan Chapell, are sadly missing the bigger picture, that God is the hero of this story and he is in the midst of his unrelenting plan to rescue his people from their sin and its consequences. We mustn’t simply make the man Daniel the object of our worship nor the subject of our debates. We may differ about prophetic details, Chapell says, but we should never miss the point that the book of Daniel is, like all of Old Testament Scripture, pointing us toward the grace of God, ultimately revealed in Christ.
Pastors, teachers, and individual Christians studying the book of Daniel will find this volume a welcome addition to their library.

Holiness By Grace (Reprinted)
$25.00Add to cartThis redesigned edition explores the relationship between holiness and grace. “Be holy, for I am holy.” Without Christ we would hear this command and shudder.

In this redesigned edition of his book, preacher and teacher Bryan Chapell puts good works and obedience in proper perspective.
