Chasing Love: Sex, Love, and Relationships in a Confused Culture

Romantic love: our culture is perennially obsessed with it . . . but also increasingly confused. Is love about self-fulfillment—or self-sacrifice? McDowell explores the Bible’s “radical upside-down” approach, addressing how Jesus speaks to singleness, LGBTQ issues, and sexual sin, and tackling the question “What if I’m not happy in my marriage?”

End the Stalemate: Move Past Cancel Culture to Meaningful Conversations – Audiobook

By

Today, we live in an argument culture that has let to nearly a third of people reporting they have stopped talking to a friend or family member due to a disagreement and nearly two-thirds of people saying they stay quiet about their beliefs due to the fear of offending others.

Sean McDowell and Tim Muehlhoff seek to end this stalemate. They believe Christians are called to be God’s ambassadors, which necessarily entails the need to listen to those around us―especially people with diverse and different perspectives. In End the Stalemate, you will be able to revive the art of meaningful conversations.

Evidence That Demands a Verdict: Life-Changing Truth for a Skeptical World – Unabridged Audiobook on CD

By,

In the first edition of Evidence That Demands a Verdict, Josh McDowell armed thoughtful Christians with historical documentation and modern scholarship, bearing witness to the truth of the Bible. Evidence quickly became a resource for millions of believers in defense of Christianity against the harshest of critics. Josh is joined by his son, Sean McDowell, in this exciting new edition with more historical insights to encourage those familiar with Evidence, as well as a new generation of believers, to embrace the truth of Christ in a skeptical culture. This is a book that invites readers to bring their doubts and doesn’t shy away from the tough questions.

The music we listen to, the movies we watch—they’re all telling us to keep chasing love, and that we’ll finally be happy when we find it.

But is love really all we need?

The love that the world tells us to pursue is all about self, about following your heart’s desires. But what is the Christian worldview on love? When we follow Jesus, we realize that he invites us to reorient the focus of our lives, so instead of chasing love primarily for our own happiness, we are first and foremost to give love—to God and to others.

In Chasing Love, Sean McDowell will invite readers into Jesus’ radical, upside-down approach to love, and in doing so, he’ll answer some of the toughest questions we’re asking about love today:

  • How does Jesus speak to singleness?
  • What does the gospel say about LGBTQ issues?
  • Can sexual sin truly be forgiven?
  • What if I’m not happy in my marriage?
