Does your marriage fulfill your dreams? Are you not yet married but eager to wed? Are you afraid to marry because you''ve seen so few happy marriages? R. C. Sproul offers this practical guide to help married couples -- or those seeking to get married -- develop the skills of marriage. Diligently scriptural, The Intimate Marriage shows how marriages can have an abundance of joy when grounded in the wisdom of God. Sproul walks through some of the toughest things couples struggle with today: communication, sex, roles, divorce, anger, and more. He shares what the Bible says about each, as well as lessons he has learned from his own marriage of forty years. "My hope is that your marriage will be an adventure, exciting and fulfilling," says Sproul. Questions at the end of each chapter will help couples apply these biblical principles to their marriages. Book jacket.

Covers all aspects of divine providence. Written for all who face the hard questions of providence in the concrete arena of faith, "this book is an effort to face those issues and questions that arise with regard to God''s providence," Sproul writes. "It is designed to look at the question of providence, not only from a doctrinal viewpoint, but chiefly from an examination of concrete experiences of flesh-and-blood people whose lives and struggles are recorded for us in sacred Scripture."

What is the role of the will in believing the good news of the gospel? Why is there so much controversy over free will throughout church history? R. C. Sproul finds that Christians have often been influenced by pagan views of the human will that deny the effects of Adam''s fall. In Willing to Believe, Sproul traces the free-will controversy from its formal beginning in the fifth century, with the writings of Augustine and Pelagius, to the present. Readers will gain understanding into the nuances separating the views of Protestants and Catholics, Calvinists and Arminians, and Reformed and Dispensationalists. This book, like Sproul''s Faith Alone, is a major work on an essential evangelical tenet.

Sproul covers Bible study, worship, prayer, service, and stewardship.

Explores the human cry for dignity, significance, love, and respect. Touches the aching void in the home, school, church, workplace, hospital, and prison. Foreword by Charles Colson.

Analyzes what Jesus said about when he would return and the last days would arrive (as in Matthew 24:34). Defends the trustworthiness of Jesus'' teachings.

Unity in the gospel is essential to the witness of the church. Yet that unity was tested by the release of two documents, Evangelicals and Catholics Together and The Gift of Salvation, which appeared to surrender the historic doctrine of sola fide (faith alone). In response, Christian leaders released a statement called The Gospel of Jesus Christ: An Evangelical Celebration. Getting the Gospel Right, a companion to Sproul''s popular Faith Alone, contains the complete text of that statement along with thorough, point-by-point discussion and exposition, to make a strong declaration of the abiding unity of evangelicals regarding the gospel and justification by faith alone.

Christians desiring a better understanding of God''s sovereignty will learn about the implications of God''s strength and how it relates to this life and the life to come.

A leading theologian explains the biblical doctrine of justification by faith alone and urges fellow evangelicals to embrace this classic Protestant teaching.

To be renewed in mind involves thinking beyond the way the world does, and R. C. Sproul shows us how this transformation works. It means believing the very essence of Christian thought and faith, which is summarized in the Apostles'' Creed. To lead readers toward renewing their minds, R. C. Sproul follows the outline of the creed while presenting the theology that you, and your congregation, need to know.

A combination of four power-packed books by noted theologian R. C. Sproul, this book offers theologically sound advice. It challenges readers to a deeper understanding of what it means to be mature followers of Jesus.
