  Finding Our Way Home

  $19.99

  In an age when Christianity has been corrupted and co-opted by cultural forces and personal agendas, pastor and theologian Glenn Packiam shows how an ancient Creed can save the modern church–and might just save your faith.

  The Church today has lost its way. We’ve pursued the wrong priorities, put our hope in personalities, and elevated popularity over spiritual maturity. And it’s not just the Church that’s lost; we are too. As culture wars rage and competing voices argue, many Christians are left asking a basic question, What’s a Christian, anyway?

  But there’s hope. The church has been here before, and our spiritual ancestors crafted a powerful resource to help us find our way: the Nicene Creed. Readers who take this journey with Packiam will:

  *discover how the Creed–born in an ancient time of controversy, confusion, and disunity much like today–is not just a statement of beliefs, but a rope to lead us home;

  *experience an invitation into the mystery and wonder of God through these ancient words; and

  *rediscover a path to becoming faithful witnesses to the way of Jesus as we learn to live into the Creed’s beautiful story, stunning hope, and powerful vision of what a Christian is.

  The world yearns for Christ’s joy, peace, and hope, but the gospel is only believable if Christians live like it’s true. Join this adventure into the heart of authentic Christianity, and rediscover for yourself the fresh, timeless power of our Creed, returning to the living heart of what it means to be a Christian.

  Worshp And The World To Come

  $35.99

  Christians sing because we are people of hope. Yet our hope is unlike other kinds of hope. We are not optimists; nor are we escapists. Christian hope is uniquely shaped by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead and by the promise of our own future resurrection. How is that hope both expressed and experienced in contemporary worship? In this volume in the Dynamics of Christian Worship series, pastor, theologian, and songwriter Glenn Packiam explores what Christians sing about when they sing about hope and what kind of hope they experience when they worship together. Through his analysis and reflection, we find that Christian worship is crucial to both the proclamation and the formation of Christian hope.

  Discover The Mystery Of Faith

  $14.99

  What if the way we worship isn’t just an expression of our faith, but is what shapes our faith? The Church has believed this about the way we worship and pray together for centuries: The way we worship becomes the way we believe. But if this is true, it’s time to take a closer look at what we say and sing and do each week. Drawing from his own discovery of ancient worship practices, Glenn Packiam helps us understand why the Church made creedal proclamations and Psalm-praying a regular part of their worship. He shares about why the Eucharist was the climactic point of their corporate “re-telling of the salvation story.” When our worship becomes a rich feast, our faith is nourished and no longer anemic. The more our worship speaks of Christ, the more we enter into the mystery of faith.
