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!
