Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business
(2)
Originally published in 1985, Neil Postman’s groundbreaking polemic about
the corrosive effects of television on our politics and public discourse
has been hailed as a twenty-first-century book published in the twentieth
century. Now, with television joined by more sophisticated electronic media-
from the Internet to cell phones to DVDs-it has taken on even greater
significance. Amusing Ourselves to Death is a prophetic look at what
happens when politics, journalism, education, and even religion become
subject to the demands of entertainment. It is also a blueprint for
regaining controlof our media, so that they can serve our highest goals.

grow old, particularly in our culture and particularly as a Christian. In a
full-orbed discussion of the subject, eighteen first-rate Christian
thinkers survey biblical and historical perspectives on aging, look at

the importance of friendships both among the elderly and between the

Ordering Your Private World
Ordering Your Private World is phenomenal selling over 1 million copies
upon its original release in 1984. With revisions and new material, it is
ever more timely to readers. Never admitting to have it all together, but
rather using his own personal struggle as a way for readers to relate to
his principles, Gordon MacDonald’s classic book invites readers to bring
order to their personal life by inviting God’s control over every segment
of their lives. His premise is that if the private world of a person is in
order, it will be because they are convinced that the inner world of the
spiritual must govern the outer world of activity.

The Treasure Principle (4)
In this first book in the new Small Books Big Change series, bestselling
author Randy Alcorn introduces readers to a revolution in material freedom
and radical generosity that will change lives around the world. Ninety-five
percent of Christians have never come to terms with a biblical perspective
on their material possessions, Alcorn writes. God has entrusted His wealth
to us and called upon us to manage and invest His money. This is in
everyone’s best interests, including our own. When Jesus told His followers
to “lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,” he intended that they
discover an astounding secret: how joyful giving brings God maximum glory
and his children maximum pleasure.

Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business
(2)
Originally published in 1985, Neil Postman’s groundbreaking polemic about
the corrosive effects of television on our politics and public discourse
has been hailed as a twenty-first-century book published in the twentieth
century. Now, with television joined by more sophisticated electronic media-
from the Internet to cell phones to DVDs-it has taken on even greater
significance. Amusing Ourselves to Death is a prophetic look at what
happens when politics, journalism, education, and even religion become
subject to the demands of entertainment. It is also a blueprint for
regaining controlof our media, so that they can serve our highest goals.

Beyond Science
John Polkinghorne has had a distinguished career as a particle physicist
and as an author of books exploring themes in science and religion. In
Beyond Science Polkinghorne examines the nature of scientific inquiry
itself and the human context in which science operates. The book looks to
issues of meaning and value, such as scientific competition and
subjectivity, as well as more practical aspects of the discipline as the
conference circuit and the nurturing of new research. Throughout,
Polkinghorne offers an accessible and personal view of science and its
relationship to the human spirit.

Fact, Value, and God
Philosopher Arthur F. Holmes surveys the historical ways of grounding moral
values objectively in the nature of reality, pausing along the way to
consider such major landmarks in Western thought as Plato, Aristotle,
Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Ockham, the Reformers, Kant, Hegel, and
Nietzsche.
Holmes is not convinced that we live in a value-free universe, that fact
and value are ultimately unrelated, or that we have to create all our own
values rather than discovering the good. He explores the fact-value
connection in the larger context of metaphysical and theological views.
What emerges is a pervasive-and convincing-link between religious and moral
beliefs.

The Gospel in a Pluralist Society
How does the gospel relate to a pluralist society? What is the Christian
message in a society marked by religious pluralism, ethnic diversity, and
cultural relativism? Should Christians encountering today’s pluralist
society concentrate on evangelism or on dialogue? How does the prevailing
climate of opinion affect, perhaps infect, Christians’ faith?
These kinds of questions are addressed in this noteworthy book by Lesslie
Newbigin. A highly respected Christian leader and ecumenical figure,
Newbigin provides a brilliant analysis of contemporary (secular, humanist,
pluralist) culture and suggests how Christians can more confidently affirm
their faith in such a context.
While drawing from scholars such as Michael Polanyi, Alasdair MacIntyre,
Hendrikus Berkhof, Walter Wink, and Robert Wuthnow, The Gospel in a
Pluralist Society is suited not only to an academic readership. This
heartfelt work by a missionary pastor and preacher also offers to Christian
leaders and laypeople some thoughtful, helpful, and provocative
reflections.

Growing Old in Christ
Presents the first serious theological reflection ever on what it means to
grow old, particularly in our culture and particularly as a Christian. In a
full-orbed discussion of the subject, eighteen first-rate Christian
thinkers survey biblical and historical perspectives on aging, look at
aging in the modern world, and describe the “Christian practice of growing
old.” Along the way they address many timely issues, including the
medicalization of aging, the debate over physician-assisted suicide, and
the importance of friendships both among the elderly and between the
elderly and the young.

The Outrageous Idea of Acedemic Faithfulness (3)
Most Christian college students separate their academic life from church
attendance, Bible study, and prayer. Too often discipleship of the mind is
overlooked if not ignored altogether. However, authors Donald Opitz and
Derek Melleby issue a clarion call to students to integrate their faith and
learning in The Outrageous Idea of Academic Faithfulness. Colossians 2:3,
after all, indicates that in Christ himself are ‘all treasures of wisdom
and knowledge.’
In eight succinct chapters the authors stress the importance of academic
discipleship and taking studies seriously. Written for a narrative
generation, this guide extracts illustrations from the Book of Daniel, The
Lord of the Rings, the experiences of real students, and more. This book is
an excellent gift for college-bound seniors in high school. It’s an
essential text for first-year college students, too. Last, The Outrageous
Idea of Academic Faithfulness will benefit professors, pastors, and
parents. 144 pages, paper, Brazos, retail $14.00 OUR PRICE $11.20 (SAVE

The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind
“The scandal of the evangelical mind is that there is not much of an
evangelical mind.” So begins this award-winning intellectual history and
critique of the evangelical movement by one of evangelicalism’s most
respected historians.
Unsparing in his judgment, Mark Noll ask why the largest single group of
religious Americans-who enjoy increasing wealth, status, and political
influence-have contributed so little to rigorous intellectual scholarship
in North America. In nourishing believers in the simple truths of the
gospel, why have evangelicals failed at sustaining a serious intellectual
life and abandoned the universities, the arts, and other realms of “high”
culture?
Noll is probing and forthright in his analysis of how this situation came
about, but he doesn’t end there. Challenging the evangelical community, he
sets out to find, within evangelicalism itself, resources for turning the
situation around.

The Soul of the American University
Only a century ago, almost all state universities held compulsory chapel
services, and some required Sunday church attendance as well. In fact,
state-sponsored chapel services were commonplace until the World War II
era, and as late as the 1950s, it was not unusual for leading schools to
refer to themselves as “Christian” institutions. Today, the once pervasive
influence of religion in the intellectual and cultural life of America’s
preeminent colleges and universities has all but vanished. In The Soul of
the American University , Marsden explores how, and why, these dramatic
changes occurred.
Far from a lament for a lost golden age when mainline Protestants ruled
American education, The Soul of the American University offers a
penetrating critique of that era, surveying the role of Protestantism in
higher education from the founding of Harvard in the 1630s through the
collapse of the WASP establishment in the 1960s. Marsden tells the stories
of many of our pace-setting universities at defining moments in their
histories, including Harvard, Yale, Princeton, the University of Michigan,
Johns Hopkins, the University of California at Berkeley, and the University
of Chicago. He recreates the religious feuds that accompanied Yale’s
transition from a flagship evangelical college to a university, and the
dramatic debate over the place of religion in higher education between
Harvard’s President Charles Eliot and Princeton’s President James McCosh.
Marsden’s analysis ranges from debates over Darwinism and higher critics of
the Bible, to the roles of government and wealthy contributors, the impact
of changing student mores, and even the religious functions of college
football. He argues persuasively that the values of “liberalism” and
“tolerance” that the establishment championed and used to marginalize
Christian fundamentalism and Roman Catholicism eventually and perhaps
inevitably led to its own disappearance from the educational milieu, as
nonsectarian came to mean exclusively secular.
While the largely voluntary disestablishment of religion may appear in many
respects commendable, Marsden believes that it has nonetheless led to the
infringement of the free exercise of religion in most of academic life. In
effect, nonbelief has been established as the only valid academic
perspective. In a provocative final chapter, Marsden spells out his own
prescription for change, arguing that just as the academy has made room for
feminist and multicultural perspectives, so should there be room once again
for traditional religious viewpoints. A thoughtful blend of historical
narrative and searching analysis, The Soul of the American University
exemplifies what it advocates: that religious perspectives can provide a
legitimate contribution to the highest level of scholarship.

Truth to Tell: The Gospel as Public Truth
Lesslie Newbigin says the church is not simply an agency that stands for
personal values. In three ppointed chapters-”Believing and Knowing the
Truth,” “Affirming the Truth in the Church,” and “Apeaking the Truth to
Ceaser”-he develops the argument that the Christian gospel is a statement
of objective, historical truth, and all other modes of thought are to be
evaluated in the light of the gospel.

heart.
