Spiritual Crisis

Just as the moon obscures the sun's light during an eclipse, today's radical secularism has obscured the light of God. But God's light still shines—and He is calling us to shine His light in the growing darkness. In The Eclipse of God, bestselling author Erwin Lutzer exposes our nation's disastrous efforts to redefine God in its own image. The resulting damage has been so great that confusion about God has even crept into the church.

The current prolonged season of war and worldwide economic crisis has created countless personal crises. Unemployment, foreclosures, threats, and fears loom, and Christians are not exempt.

Many words have been written about this period of life sometimes called middle age. What makes Hidden Blessings different is its unique blend of psychological and spiritual guidance to help us respond fully to the transformative invitation of midlife. That invitation is to step away from taking life literally -- and, perhaps, superficially -- to discover a deep and profound underlying existence.

Times of disaster are unavoidable. We don’t get to choose whether or not to live in such times. We can only choose what to do with the time that we live. Will we let fear and darkness overwhelm us, or will we choose to shine the light of hope? In Hope in Any Crisis, pastor and best-selling author Bill Johnson reveals the powerful divine protection offered to you as a believer, three responses you can experience in times of uncertainty, and your responsibility to have hope in all things.

When life goes crazy, the Lord has a prophetic word for you: “Come away with me! It’s time for “selah". The word “selah” means to pause and reflect. When life goes crazy, it’s easy to get caught up in the chaos and crisis. We start to live based on what news headlines, doctors reports, and circumstances tell us. But in the middle of the storm, God is calling for his people to come away with him, for it’s in the place of selah that he is speaking powerfully.

Nearly two decades ago, Hank Hanegraaff's award-winning Christianity in Crisis alerted the world to the dangers of a cultic movement within Christianity that threatened to undermine the very foundation of biblical faith.

America has passed a tipping point. A majority of Americans now say that truth is up to the individual and that ultimate truth cannot be known. Learning to "speak our own truths" was supposed to lead to dignity and harmony. Instead, our society struggles with unprecedented levels of social conflict, purposelessness, and loss of identity. And still, the "Truth versus truths" tension continues to grow. Is all hope lost? In this inspiring book, Dr. Jeff Myers tells the fascinating stories of Jesus—followers who lived for Truth and transformed their world in times of crisis.

The starting point for In Deep Water: Spiritual Care for Young People in a Climate Crisis is not news: the world as we know it is shifting. Several millennia of climate stability have come to an abrupt end. But, observes Talitha Amadea Aho, the young people of today do not remember stability. They see the world through crisis-colored glasses. Climate change is creating a spiritual emergency that is hitting their generation harder than any other.

There is nothing like a crisis to reveal the cracks in the walls of our soul. But God promises to redeem all things that come into our lives to make us more like Jesus. We are experiencing a unique crisis in our day and age, COVID-19. It has created fear, death, and will leave economic disaster in its wake. In this book, I don’t just want to talk about how we can survive this crisis, or how we can access the peace of God in tumultuous times. I want to talk about how God can redeem a crisis in our personal lives to take us deeper into maturity and intimacy with Christ.

Can a person find blessing in the midst of a crisis? In Don't Curse Your Crisis, Michael Pitts shows that while everyone goes through seasons of testing in their life, they CAN be blessed through coping with their crisis. He also shows how each time of testing in our life has three characteristics: a beginning, an end, and a reason for the season. Pitts challenges the listener that the question to be asked is not why bad things happen to good people, but rather what happens to good people when bad things happen to them?

Für viele Menschen ist die Wende in der Mitte ihres Lebens schwierig. Manchmal gerät das ganze bisherige Leben dadurch durcheinander. Viele reagieren mit Berufswechsel, Aussteigen aus der gewohnten Umgebung, Ehescheidung oder psychosomatischen Beschwerden auf die Veränderungen. Anselm Grün sieht die Lebensmitte als eine wichtige Aufforderung, sich der eigenen Wahrheit zu stellen. Wer diese Herausforderung annimmt, trauert nicht mehr der vergangenen Jugend nach. Er lebt vielmehr ganz im Augenblick. Er spürt, wie spannend das Leben ist und wie ihn gerade das Älterwerden in neue Bereiche des Menschseins einführt.

The apostle Peter described faith as "much more precious than gold that perishes". As gold passes through purifying fire, so Peter says a man's faith must be tried in order that it "might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ" (1 Peter 1:7). While we address the crises in our lives that try our faith, we rarely praise God the way Job did, and we rarely submit ourselves to the purifying fire as Peter suggests.
