Exploring Issues of Life by Brian Johnston

This book is now available on Kindle format on Amazon.

It aims to explore biblical attitudes to some of today's most pressing issues. God says in Isaiah 55:8 that "....my thoughts are not your thoughts", so we need to be prepared to have our thinking adjusted from that of society around us and be willing to swim against the flow. The following issues are tackled:
  • Global issues - the environment, military involvement, politics, a world of need
  • Spiritual issues - the New Age movement, the role of women, fasting, vegetarianism, signs and wonders
  • Lifestyle issues - career and educational planning, money & power, entertainment, addictive substances
  • Personal issues - singleness, marriage, divorce
  • Family Issues - contraception, infertility, abortion
  • Sexual issues - sexual standards, homosexuality
The author recognizes that it can only be a beginning in the quest to "renew our minds"; so each chapter concludes with study questions and a summary of the key sub-issues, to enable the reader to develop the issues further, either individually or in small groups.  
 
I can highly recommend it at $2.99 or 1.49!

Each programme is 15 minutes in length, hosted by John Martin, with a Bible talk by Brian Johnston, an experienced Bible teacher.  Topics already posted include series on the book of Hebrews, salt as a picture of Christ, overcoming objections to Christian faith, Biblical discipleship and more.  The archive is planned to be updated on a weekly basis so feel free to keep visiting.  Many of these series also form the basis of Kindle books - see the  links section to visit the store.

Kindle Book - Minor Prophets, Major Issues

Here is another recommended title from the Search for Truth Series - this time from the Old Testament.

The so-called "Minor Prophets" of the Old Testament, such as Nahum, Micah and Malachi, are often overlooked because of their brevity and also because they might seem irrelevant to Christians of today.

Bible teacher, missionary and radio broadcaster, Brian Johnston shows how inaccurate this perception is by pointing out that each prophet not only had vital things to say to the peoples of that era, but they also raise very major issues that are absolutely relevant to believers today.

Such issues include: injustice, suffering, unfaithfulness, abandonment, corruption, compassion, arrogance and wrong priorities.

This short e-booklet is designed to unlock this important part of the Bible and challenge your own experience as a disciple of Jesus Christ.
Only 99 cents from Amazon.com or 99p from Amazon.co.uk

Tomorrows Headlines - Bible Prophecy Book

Here is a little Kindle book that is currently going like hot cakes and I highly recommend it - especially at the bargain price of just 99 cents!

http://www.amazon.com/Tomorrows-Headlines-Prophecy-Search-ebook/dp/B0094GM5W2/

Bible teacher, missionary and radio broadcaster, Brian Johnston's conversational and down to earth approach provides some key principles for unlocking the meaning of Bible prophecy and surveys what the Bible says about the future, primarily from the books of Daniel and Revelation.

Topics and questions include:

- Will there ever be a United States of Europe?
- Will there be a single world currency?
- What is the critical position of Israel in God's purposes?
- Will the temple be rebuilt in Jerusalem?
- What can we know about the Antichrist?
- Will Jesus Christ return once, or twice?
- What is the role of Babylon in the end times?
- What is the significance of the spread of Islam?
