Bible Gateway Interviews Shelene Bryan on Ridiculous Faith

Without faith, it’s impossible to please God. But are your moments of deepest, most essential faith doomed to dissipate as quickly as they materialize, leaving you powerless and ineffectual? What would your life be like if you could harness the rush of faith that appears in the most desperate moments when you cry out to God? Bible Gateway interviewed Shelene Bryan about her book, Ridiculous Faith: Experience the Power of an Absurdly, Unbelievably Good God (Thomas Nelson, 2016). Read this interview.

Bible Gateway Interviews Scott W. Sunquist on The Unexpected Christian Century 

In 1900 Western “Christian empires” were ruling most of the world, leading many to assume Western Christianity would dominate the 20th century. What happened instead is that Christianity in the West declined dramatically, the empires collapsed, and Christianity’s center moved to Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Pacific. How did epochal changes in global Christianity happen so quickly? Bible Gateway interviewed Scott W. Sunquist about his book, The Unexpected Christian Century: The Reversal and Transformation of Global Christianity, 1900-2000 (Baker Academic, 2015). Read this interview.
