We don’t need a list of disciplines. We need a healer, a deliverer to come and set us free. Kevin Butcher points us toward this healing Jesus, who offers us his all-encompassing love.

The authors make a case strictly on how Darwinism stands up under the microscope of real science.

There is a movement that is misleading hundreds of millions of Christians and seekers. Today's Church is being sapped of its influence, vitality, and sustainability. It is sinking, submerging like a leaky boat taking on water. This report reveals that to destroy true Christian faith, one must simply compromise or ignore the first few chapters about creation in Genesis. Here we expose the depth to which compromises with secular opinions have embedded themselves into the submerging Church.
