Christians have just as many problems as anyone else. Financial concerns, marital discord, illness, loneliness, church splits: you name it, Christians have them. That's discouraging, and sometimes we compound these problems by imagining that problems are God's punishment for our past misdeeds. This is especially true if we fail to see God at work in our lives, if we aren't enjoying a rewarding prayer life, or if our relationship with the Lord seems to be at a distance. In Problems, God's Presence, and Prayer, Michael Wells shows how you can experience the joy of a closer walk with God.

Here is a portrait of Jesus that in some ways will affirm what traditional Christianity has always understood about him...and, in other ways, upend it altogether.

This first new translation of Kierkegaard's masterwork in a generation brings an essential work of modern philosophy to vivid life. While the majority of Kierkegaard's work leading up to The Concept of Anxiety dealt with the intersection of faith and knowledge, here the renowned Danish philosopher turns to the perennial question of sin and guilt.
