Kita tidak mungkin tidak punya persoalan. Jadi kalau kita ikut Tuhan Yesus supaya bebas dari masalah; kita salah, kita keliru, dan kita pasti menjadi rapuh. Masalah tidak mungkin tidak kita alami. Tapi Allah itu mengatur semua dengan sempurna, apalagi untuk anak-anak-Nya. Maka jangan lawan Dia. Dia sediakan yang terbaik untuk kita. Dan pencobaan tidak melebihi kekuatan manusia; bukan kekuatan anak Tuhan. Jadi manusia manapun sebenarnya ditopang, dilindungi oleh Tuhan, karena Tuhan itu Allah atas semua makhluk manusia. Tuhan menopang. Jadi kita harus mempersenjatai diri dengan pikiran: masalah harus dihadapi. Dan ingat! masalah Tuhan izinkan terjadi supaya kita tegar.

Book summary: The Bible has a way of shocking us. If Americans could still blush, we might blush at the words, "Rejoice in the wife of your youth, a lovely deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts fill you at all times with delight; be intoxicated always in her love" (Proverbs 5:18-19). But, of course, sin always tries to trash God's gifts. So we can't just celebrate sex for what God made it to be; we have to fight what sin turned it into. The contributors to this unique volume encourage you to do both: celebrate and struggle. This book has something for allmen and women, married and singlefrom contributors like John Piper, C. J. and Carolyn Mahaney, Mark Dever, Al Mohler, Carolyn McCulley, and others. Included is a DVD with material from the Desiring God national conference, "Sex and the Supremacy of Christ," held in Minneapolis in 2004.

DVD summary: Message 1 / John Piper. Sexuality is designed by God as a way to know God in Christ more fully; Knowing God in Christ more fully is designed as a way of quarding and guiding our sexuality. Message 2 / John Piper. I want to help you so know the supremacy of Christ that your sexuality, single or married, would be experienced with more sweetness, more Christ-exalting purity, more soul satisfaction because of knowing Him better. Conference speaker highlights with Mark Dever, C.J. Mahaney, R. Albert Mohler, Jr., Ben Patterson, David Powlison.

In this biblically grounded study, Stanley Grenz synthesizes theology, ethics, and current medical research to offer an evangelical perspective on the profound role that sexuality does, and should, play in our lives today. He calls for Christians to live a biblical sexual ethic in the contemporary world, at the same calling on the church to recognize that its mandate includes being a reconciling community, one that proclaims God's grace to all.

The gospel is neither religion nor irreligion, but something else entirely---a third way of relating to God through grace. Bestselling author and pastor Timothy Keller addresses several current discussion and conflicts about the nature of the gospel and shows how faithful preaching of the gospel leads to individual and corporate renewal.

This book offers an accessible introduction to Simone Weil, one of the most original and intriguing Christian thinkers of the twentieth century. A French philosopher, activist, and mystic, she repeatedly sought to enter into the world of the workers and the poor. Though her mystical experiences brought her to the threshold of the Church, she chose not to enter. Yet many consider her one of the most significant religious witnesses of our time. Stephen Plant explores her life and the paradoxes of her work from a sympathetic, but not uncritical perspective. Her value lies not simply in the content of her thought but, as she would say, in the amount of illumination thrown upon the things of this world.
