Doubting Thomas : The Religious Life And Legacy Of Thomas Jefferson
$49.99Add to cartHarvard University Professor Alan Heimert said that the evidence in this book provides, “truly new and original insight into the religious atmosphere of pre-Revolutionary Virginia, adding immeasurably to Jefferson’s own intellectual biography.” Drawing from about 1100 religious letters and papers of Jefferson, this book identifies over 200 religious leaders or groups that Jefferson either worshipped with, aided financially or corresponded with. While not denying the unorthodox writings of Jefferson late in life, the context of the vast majority of his religious correspondence and actions, and the unique religious culture of Central Virginia, show a much more nuanced picture that challenges both secular and religious scholars to reassess Jefferson’s modern image.

Presence Of A Hidden God
$15.99Add to cartGod has not left Himself without a witness, nor is there anywhere on earth where His fingerprints are absent.
“Truly, you are a God who hides yourself, O God of Israel, the Savior.” –Isaiah 45:15
Where is God? Why does He seem absent? Is He hiding?
Some people think so… but the problem lies with them, not with God. To the unrighteous, God is absent-or worse, if He is there at all, He is cruel. But to the righteous, God is clearly present.
The great Christian thinker Blaise Pascal wrote, “What can be seen on earth indicates neither the total absence of God nor his manifest presence, but rather the presence of a hidden God.” In other words, to those who are spiritually blind, God may seem hidden. But to those whose eyes He has opened, God is not hidden at all. He has clearly revealed Himself in Jesus Christ.
In The Presence of a Hidden God-completed just before his untimely passing-beloved pastor and teacher Dr. D. James Kennedy and co-author Jerry Newcombe provide the biblical assurance and helpful insight you’re seeking to build your faith in the living God. Dr. Kennedy knew-as you will soon discover-that if we seek God with all our hearts, we will find Him indeed.
