The first Archbishop of Canterbury's Lent Book to be written by the Archbishop Justin Welby himself. In his first full-length book Justin Welby looks at the subject of money and materialism. Designed for study in the weeks of Lent leading up to Easter, Dethroning Mammon reflects on the impact of our own attitudes, and of the pressures that surround us, on how we handle the power of money, called Mammon in this book. Who will be on the throne of our lives? Who will direct our actions and attitudes? Is it Jesus Christ, who brings truth, hope and freedom? Or is it Mammon, so attractive, so clear, but leading us into paths that tangle, trip and deceive? Archbishop Justin explores the tensions that arise in a society dominated by Mammon's modern aliases, economics and finance, and by the pressures of our culture to conform to Mammon's expectations. Following the Gospels towards Easter, this book asks the reader what it means to dethrone Mammon in the values and priorities of our civilisation and in our own existence. In Dethroning Mammon, Archbishop Justin challenges us to use Lent as a time of learning to trust in the abundance and grace of God.

This Deadly Ancient Spirit Has Been Tolerated, Accepted, and Now, Celebrated. It Must Be Exposed and Expelled! Is it possible that the strongholds you are dealing with in your life, city, and nation are the result of an ancient demonic entity intent on releasing absolute chaos and destruction? This insidious spirit has been embraced by culture and, in many instances, accepted by religion—including many expressions of Christianity. Though this spirit takes on many names—Lilith, Ishtar, Jezebel, Cybele, Mami Wata, Santa Muerte, goddess Isis—it can be traced back to the Queen of Heaven. The late C. Peter Wagner, Rebecca Greenwood's mentor, commissioned her to take his extensive spiritual warfare studies on the Queen of Heaven to the next level—a revelatory teaching that both exposes this ancient demonic entity and empowers believers to overcome its everyday influence. Dr. Wagner recognized Rebecca’s unique anointing to address this topic and help believers demolish ancient strongholds that permeate our society and shut every demonic doorway over their lives. In Dethroning the Queen of Heaven, Rebecca teaches you how to: Identify the tell-tale symptoms of this spirit’s presence and operation in your life. Avoid and cancel generational bloodline strongholds that impact your family and children. Expose how the Queen of Heaven is fueling the rampant corruption and lawlessness in every area of society. Discover the ties between goddess worship and modern practices of wicca. Learn prayer strategies to overcome this demonic structure for you, your region, and even your nation. Discover how to shut the spiritual portals, close the ancient gateways, and forever cancel this demon’s malicious agenda to destroy your life and wreak havoc in your nation!

How the King of Beers collapsed without a fight and what it means for America's place in the post-Recession world How did InBev, a Belgian company controlled by Brazilians, take over one of America's most beloved brands with scarcely a whimper of opposition? Chalk it up to perfect timing—and some unexpected help from powerful members of the Busch dynasty, the very family that had run the company for more than a century. In Dethroning the King, Julie MacIntosh, the award-winning financial journalist who led coverage of the takeover for the Financial Times, details how the drama that unfolded at Anheuser-Busch in 2008 went largely unreported as the world tumbled into a global economic crisis second only to the Great Depression. Today, as the dust settles, questions are being asked about how the "King of Beers" was so easily captured by a foreign corporation, and whether the company's fall mirrors America's dwindling financial and political dominance as a nation. Discusses how the takeover of Anheuser-Busch will be seen as a defining moment in U.S. business history Reveals the critical missteps taken by the Busch family and the Anheuser-Busch board Argues that Anheuser-Busch had a chance to save itself from InBev's clutches, but infighting and dysfunctionality behind the scenes forced it to capitulate From America's heartland to the European continent to Brazil, Dethroning the King is the ultimate corporate caper and a fascinating case study that's both wide reaching and profound.

How did a country endowed with abundant resources and a Christian majority reach such a precarious precipice? Dethroning Race explores some of what’s gone wrong and contends for a way ahead. Through a journey that traverses South Africa’s historical milestones and personal accounts from #FeesMustFall, Saville unveils a clarion call for a nation in need of renewal. Serving as a rallying cry, the book calls for a united South Africa, urging a rediscovery of diversity guided by a vision for biblical social change. --- “Not merely an academic work, this book preaches and, if one is willing, grows the imagination of the reader toward reparative and faith-directed justice.” - Dr Christina Edmondson, author of Faithful Antiracism and co-host of the Truth’s Table podcast “Dethroning Race is timely reading for those intentional about living as though the neighbour is created in God’s image, whatever their skin colour.” - Moss Ntlha, General-Secretary of the Evangelical Alliance of South Africa “This book should make you stop, make you think, make you reflect and make you pray.” - Andy McCullough, author of Global Humility and leader of the Unreached Network

Postmodernism has spawned a dichotomy of relativistic views on whether God is sovereign or not and whether if He even exists at all. If everything is relative, how can God be sovereign, and how can Jesus Christ be the only way to God? What is right for you may not be right for me! Dethroning God is a book that defines postmodernity. It discusses the moral consequences of the ideas of philosophers from John Locke and Friedrich Nietzsche to Jacques Derrida and Stanley Fish; how parallelism influences intertextuality in the Bible; the cultural manifestations of late capitalism, postmodernism, and anthropology; how contextualization competes with globalization; and the postmodern and postliberal challenges to modern liberal Christian theology. Finally, it defines and explores the sovereignty of God, his sovereign will as Creator of all things, how postmodernity denies the sovereign will of God, how his sovereign will infringes on liberty, and what attitudes we should have toward the Creator of the universe. Doctor Vass rejected being a member of the Christian family for years. Being made alive has fostered a desire for Jesus Christ so fervently that Doctor Vass feels as though he has no option but to counter the culture that has for a hundred years tried to marginalize God and his redemptive work through his Son. There is a noticeable lack of theology today of proper doctrine and understanding of just who God is. Not only did He create all that there is, He owns and controls all that there is. Teaching and preaching abound on peripheral matters, but professing Christians are woefully deficient in understanding the nature and character of God and how secular beliefs impact what understanding Christians have. Doctor Vass earned his PhD in theology researching and writing on the reformed view of God in the postmodern world. The time has come to share this information with the world, especially the Christian world.

New York Times bestselling author Dr. Darrell Bock teams up with Dr. Daniel Wallace to help you separate fact from fiction among constant attacks on Christianity from popular culture and bogus scholars. There is a quest going on to reduce Jesus to a mythic legend or to nothing more than a mere man. Scholars such as Elaine Pagels and James Tabor are using recent discoveries like the Gospel of Judas and the Gospel of Thomas to argue that the Christ of Christianity is a contrived figure and that a different Christ—one human and not divine—is the "true" Christ. Both research professors, Bock and Wallace set out a vigorous defense of Christianity against a popular trend that they dub "Jesusanity", where Christ was simply a human teacher. In their trademark, easy-to-understand style, the authors take on attempts to redefine Jesus in a convincing way that will help you understand that the orthodox understanding of Christ and his divinity is as trustworthy and sure as it ever was. This book: Refutes the six main claims that represent a large part of skepticism about Jesus today Provides credible answers to attacks on the traditional texts Defends against the interpretations of bogus scholars and the arguments of biased scholars Constructs a positive case for the Jesus of faith If you’re exhausted by the constant attempts to dethrone Jesus, renew the security of your knowledge of who Jesus really is: the Son of God.
