Paperback. Zustand: Good. Have Christians grown accustomed to those who defame the Church? Whether it's a best-selling author who claims religion poisons everything or an atheist comedian whose punch lines aren't hassled by the burden of proof, foes of the faith continue to declare Christianity morally deficient without much resistance. In Moral Apologetics for Contemporary Christians, Mark Coppenger mixes compelling references--from classic philosophers to modern entertainers--to reasonably push back against both harsh critics and less intense cultural relativists, contending that Christianity is morally superior to its competitors as well as true. Coppenger doesn't avoid uncomfortable realities like the misbehavior of many Christians and false teachers, but he sets the book's course in defense of his faith with evidence that a Christian approach to life makes people and societies flourish, while those who turn their backs on genuine Christianity are more liable to behave wickedly. I hope to help replenish our cultural confidence, he writes. We have a great moral story to tell, and it surely points to the Author of Light and Life. Acclaim for Moral Apologetics for Contemporary Christians: I wish every Christian could have the opportunity of sitting in Mark Coppenger's classroom--a place of constant intellectual exchange, all aimed at developing a consistently biblical worldview. Well, reading this book is as close as many Christians may ever get to sitting in that classroom, but it is an experience not to be missed. This book is a tour de force of apologetic thought, revealing ethical issues to be apologetic opportunities. Fascinating on every page . . . get ready for a guided tour through contemporary culture and Christian apologetics. R. Albert Mohler, Jr., president, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary Mark Coppenger is not only the author of a strategy for doing moral apologetics, he is a skilled practioner. As a seminary professor, church planter, soldier, and world traveler who has never met a stranger, Mark's method has been tested in the laboratory of personal experience from New York City to Jakarta and from Toronto to Rio de Janero. C. Ben Mitchell, Graves professor of Moral Philosophy, Union University Pascal noted that 'the heart has reasons that reason cannot know.' Mark Coppenger in his extraordinary book realizes the mind has positions the brain cannot fathom. Here in poignant argumentation is the case for faith and the natural state of morality. His explanations are breathtakingly persuasive regardless of your religious conviction. Herbert I. London, president emeritus, Hudson Institute Mark Coppenger has rendered a great service to the Christian church in the 21st Century. Moral Apologetics is a special gift to all of those faithful Christians who believe that Christianity brings new life to the mind as well as to the soul. Moral Apologetics should be added to every thinking Christian's bookshelf. Richard Land, president, Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Evangelical discourse on the role of arts in the church can be radioactive, and the twenty-one contributors to this book walk right into the hot zone to pick up on twenty contentious questions. The volume is a series of written dialogues, each one keyed to a cranky question, one that a skeptic might raise (hence the title). Herein, the gainsayers are taken seriously and given their voice. They even find support in some of the contributors' comments. But apologists for greater use of arts and artists in the church have their say, and things can get edgy. Topics range from the biblically august (the Second Commandment; the regulative principle; Great Commission priorities) to the prudential (expense; bohemian influence; weaker brothers) to the programmatic (Christmas festivities; committee makeup). Some of the parties to the discussion are church staffers (pastors and ministers of music); some are professors; several are doctoral students; one is a college student; another, a gallery owner; yet another, a denominational ethicist; and there's a Canadian and a Korean in the mix. The collection of speakers and opinions is illuminating and bracing, and the fruit of their thinking makes for great reading and discussion. Bring together a select group of faith-based, post-graduate, arts-worship practitioners and mentors. Let the agenda be framed by questions about theology, culture, artistic practice, and the worshipping church and let this group fire away at them freely and frankly. You'll soon realize that you are not going to get a neatly packaged set of one-time, all-time answers, and that Christ-centered artistic practice is less a closed, artsy formulation than a vigorous exercise in skilled discernment, experiment, and steady growth. Read it and grow with them. --Harold Best, Dean Emeritus, Wheaton College Conservatory of Music This book deals with the objections to the use of art in the church by actually talking them through, with twenty-two pastors, artists, and laypeople joining in. All sides are taken seriously, and a consensus emerges about how churches can use the arts for effective ministry and God's glory. The stimulating conversations demonstrate why classic thinkers believed that dialogue--thrashing out issues by talking about them--is the best way of coming to understanding. --Gene Edward Veith, Professor Emeritus, Patrick Henry College Mark Coppenger is Professor of Christian Philosophy and Ethics at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville. He is the author of Moral Apologetics (2011).…
