Their struggles are compounded by the rapid changes they face personally and in the surrounding culture, so they need resources that meet them at their level of development and maturity. The LifeLine mini-books for Teens series helps fill a significant gap. In

Anxiety might feel inescapable. But the Bible does not present anxiety as a morally neutral emotion just to accept. No, anxiety—anxiety over anything at all—is something that God calls us out of.

Many teens find that life in this world leaves them feeling stressed out! But even when anxiety feels crippling, God’s Word lays out a path forward— a path toward peace beyond what might seem possible right now. In Christ, there is certain hope of learning what to do, how to trust, and how to find true, meaningful peace amid the ups and downs of life.

Reasons We Believe: 50 Lines of Evidence That Confirm the Christian Faith

Reasons We Believe will reinforce your personal faith and will provide you with a clear, concise, evangelistic tool to help you share that faith with others.

In an age of cynics and skeptics, Christianity is constantly under attack. Believers need resources that defend the veracity of their faith. They are searching for clear, concise, and credible answers to both doubts of their own and objections from their unbelieving friends.

Nathan Busenitz provides such resources to believers. Reasons We Believe confirms and strengthens the faith of believers by demonstrating the reliability of the twofold authority on which Christianity rests: the Word of God and the person of Jesus Christ. Reasons builds a biblical foundation for the authority of the Bible and then shows how extra-biblical evidence corresponds with and thereby attests to what the Bible claims.

This study seeks to reinforce the faith of Christians while also providing them with a straightforward evangelistic tool for reaching non-Christians.

Successful Christian Parenting

“The market is flooded with wrongheaded approaches to
child-rearing. We are faced with a glut of so-called Christian
parenting helps, but truly biblical resources are rare indeed.”
John MacArthur

More than ever, Christians need to know what the Bible teaches about parenting, and put it into practice.

Embark today on an exciting parenting adventure with Dr. John MacArthur. Bring your Bible, and sit at the feet of one of the greatest Christian teachers of our time. Successful Christian Parenting is not like the popular child parenting programmes that promise some amazing-but-unlikely results.

This book is unlike the pragmatic or formulaic approaches to parenting and family life. It’s not a new “method“ of parenting. Neither is this a book on child psychology. Rather, it presents the time-proven principles of biblical parenting clearly and carefully to help parents make sense of their duties before God and to bring up their children in the ways of the Lord.

Our Sufficiency in Christ

Christ’s divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness. —2 Peter 1:3

Pure Christianity needs no embellishment whatsoever. We find complete sufficiency in Christ and His provision for our needs.

But too many Christians have bought in to the notion that all the spiritual resources we gain at the moment of salvation are not adequate to meet the real needs in today’s complex world. So they look for something more—an emotionally exciting and self-edifying experience not found in God’s Word. This failure to understand the sufficiency of Christ has opened the door to all kinds of worldy influences, causing many modern believers to mix biblical truths with seemingly helpful man-made methods such as mysticism and psychology. As a result, they wallow in a watered-down, pseudo-Christanity that has been drained of its vitality, effectiveness, and security.

In this book John MacArthur exposes the main ways Christians have displaced their spiritual resources and explains how to avoid making the same error. It will make you newly aware of how completely God provides—and give you a renewed understanding of what it means to be “complete in Christ.”

The Jesus You Can’t Ignore: What You Must Learn from the Bold Confrontations of Christ

Do you have any idea who Jesus really is?

“What you think of Jesus Christ will thoroughly color how you think about everything else,” writes John MacArthur.

This is a critical truth in the life of every believer. Our view of Jesus affects the way we view God, the world, ourselves, and every one of our decisions.

These days, Jesus is often portrayed as a pacifist, a philanthropist, or a docile teacher. He strikes a plastic—and sometimes pathetic—pose in the minds of many. Some prefer the meek and mild Jesus who heals the sick, calms fears, and speaks of peace and goodwill. These things do represent a portion of the Messiah. But tragically, too many have never been exposed to the rest of him. They have never seen a full 360-degree view of the Savior. Until now.

Like an investigative journalist on a mission, best-selling author and teacher John MacArthur walks through the gospel records and shows you a remarkable and compelling picture of the Jesus you can’t ignore.

A Tale of Two Sons: The Prodigal Son

Charles Dickens. William Shakespeare. Garrison Keillor. They’re all part of the chorus of literary geniuses who expressed admiration for The Parable of the Prodigal Son as outstanding literature. After all, it is a powerful drama, rich in detail, powerfully succinct, and intensely personal. But beyond the literary critiques-besides being one of the most celebrated written works of all time-the message of this parable is one we can’t afford to ignore.

In The Prodigal Son, John MacArthur takes the story back to its roots, when Jesus’ words were absolutely revolutionary. As one of America’s most beloved Bible teachers, MacArthur leads us through the minefields of interpretation and restores the simple yet profound brilliance of this passage. Giving engrossing historical background,The Prodigal Sonwill reveal Christ’s original message as intended for the Pharisees, the disciples, and the world today.

Gain an enlightening perspective into the prodigal son’s story and embrace God’s love anew with The Prodigal Son.

This book makes it Biblically clear that worship is all about how we prioritize and live our daily lives to honor and glorify God. Make worship your ultimate priority!
