Showing titles in Christian Living

John C. Lennox is widely regarded as one of the greatest Christian apologists of modern times, having devoted a lifetime to showing how faith in God and faith in reason can stand together. In My Story, he invites listeners into his remarkable journey: growing up in Northern Ireland, studying at Oxford and Cambridge, teaching mathematics at the highest level, and boldly defending the Christian faith in lecture halls, debates and the public square for more than sixty years.

Masses of believers are carrying a yoke Jesus never placed on their shoulders.

Yet you still feel like it's never enough.

This Changes Everything What happened to the Gospel that made Christians more focused on managing sin, performing religious deeds, and trying to reach heaven rather than exploring a love so vast it would transform them with joy?
