Right Thinking in a World Gone Wrong
By John MacArthur
Harvest House Publishers

Retail price $14.99
Amazon Price: $10.19



Book description:

John MacArthur, along with the leadership team at Grace Community Church, where John has been the pastor for over 40 years, addresses one of the greatest challenges facing all believers: the powerful influence of secular culture on their hearts and minds. When it comes to every issue imaginable, Christians face a constant barrage of unbiblical worldviews, making it very difficult to know what they should think or where they should stand.

This book will equip believers with a biblical perspective on today’s most talked–about issues—enabling them to see the controversies and concerns of this world through God’s eyes. The subjects include:

~in vitro fertilization                
~the cult of celebrity entertainment 
~political activism                   
~environmentalism
~radical terrorism                    
~the economy
~disasters and epidemics         
~God and the problem of evil
~homosexual marriage

Also included is a topical guide to Bible verses that speak to contemporary issues, arming readers with right thinking and biblical responses to challenging questions.

 

 


Book Bargains Review

 

First off, I have to say I'm a huge fan of John MacArthur.  I began listening to his teaching on the radio over 20 years ago when I first became a Christian.  Much of my theology was learned faithfully listening to his sermon series.  I don't always agree with what he says, but one thing Dr. MacArthur stresses is for the individual to study and search out the Bible for themselves.

With that said, I think this book is a wonderful resource for pastors and church leaders, including Sunday School teachers or small group leaders.  It addresses various social issues from a biblical perspective and helps the reader to look at contemporary issues from a Christian worldview.

For such a wide range of topics, it is a rather small book, so each topic is given only a general overview, but enough info to spur the reader on to deeper research if their interest is piqued.

I think this is a much needed book in a culture that lives in the gray, and nothing is black and white.  I highly recommend it.
