Motif Press Title
Why do we exist? Why is there something rather than nothing? Designed to Evolve examines the question of existence in light of modern science. From the birth of the universe 13.8 billion years ago, to the intricacy of the DNA molecule, nature is explored at the most fundamental level. Two possible explanations emerge. Are we the result of chance or designed for a purpose? There has never been a time when more information on origins has been available. Now we can probe this question and take a critical look at the nature of existence. In the end, the evidence for purpose prevails. Designed to Evolve presents the modern rational for a creator, compiled from the science of our day. Recent discoveries have exposed new lines of evidence for God. Modern versions of traditional arguments still hold true. Big bang cosmology, particle physics, natural history, and biology are analyzed in a vivid chronology of the universe, revealing the beauty of creation and making the sciences of origin comprehensible to the non-scientist. This digs deep into the specific evidence and is backed up by references from many scientific journals, books, and other publications. The opposing view is not neglected. A stroke of chance on infinite scales of time have been the mainstay of atheist ideology, including the many multiverse scenarios, unguided evolution, and the apparent disconnect between science and religion. The lines of reason often used in support of atheism are examined in detail. Yet, in the end, faith may be a required element of non-belief, given the amassing evidence. The implications of some quantum phenomena reveal the nature of God and hint at the existence of the soul. Biblical creation is shown to align closely with geology and the fossil record. Designed to Evolve presents a compelling depiction of creation that embraces modern science. Whether you believe, believe with doubts, consider yourself undecided, or are an atheist, this book will help you to have a fully informed view. Designed to Evolve provides clear, credible, and verifiable evidence that represents the most complete scientific assessment for the existence of God.

Jesus Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$12.99In this six-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), bestselling author Max Lucado explores the life and character of Jesus, helping participants become more familiar with the man at the center of the greatest story ever told. As Max explains in this study, for thirty-three years Jesus felt everything that we have ever felt: weakness, weariness, rejections. He got colds. His feelings got hurt. His feet grew tired. His head ached.
To think of Jesus in such terms almost seems irreverent. It is much easier to keep the humanity out of the incarnation. Clean up the manure from around the manger. Wipe the sweat out of his eyes. Pretend he never snored or hit his thumb with a hammer. There is something about keeping Jesus divine that keeps him distant, packaged, and predictable.
But we have to remember that by Jesus becoming human, God made it possible for us to see him and hear his voice. If we want to know what matters to God, all we need to do is look in the Bible to see what matters to Jesus. If we want to know what God is doing in our world, we need only ponder the words of Jesus. By learning more about the person Jesus was and is, we come to understand more clearly the people we were created to be.
Jesus will inspire group members to spend time at the foot of the cross and search the heart of the one who would rather die for them than live without them.
Designed for use with the Jesus Video Study (sold separately).
