Generacion Idiota – (Spanish)
$19.98
Siguiendo con la idea general de su libro La batalla cultural, el afamado escritor, politologo, intelectual y conferencista Agustin Laje invita a la juventud a rebelarse contra el paradigma dominante, uniendose a la batalla cultural que las nuevas derechas estan dando en todo el mundo.
Los antiguos griegos llamaban “idiota” al hombre desconectado de su contexto, desconectado de los problemas de la ciudad, ignorante respecto de todo acontecer: idiota era el hombre ensimismado.
En nuestros dias hay una generacion idiota, manipulada por una cultura que, mientras masifica a los jovenes, los hace sentir originales; al mismo tiempo que los engaa de mil maneras, los hace creer empoderados; y a la vez que los sumerge en un hedonismo consumista en el que compran hasta su misma identidad, los hace creer revolucionarios.
La generacion idiota analiza:
*Como la juventud de hoy ha triunfado, y ha traspasado su forma al conjunto social
*Como recuperar el poder en la familia cuando los miembros mas jovenes de la familia quedan, en su educacion y socializacion, merced del Estado y los dispositivos culturales multimediaticos, que procuran reemplazar el rol del padre y de la madre.
*Como la politica se ha vuelto adolescente – No es ningun secreto, la politica ha bebido de la idiotez en una sociedad en la que un baile en TikTok del candidato hoy resulta mas llamativo que un programa de gobierno.
*El papel de la escuela, las universidades y el mundo digital – La subjetividad juvenil se constituye en torno a estos dispositivos e instituciones. Pero en ellos se juega la cultura en batallas culturales que hay que analizar y abordar.
Es hora de levantarse y romper el esquema de una sociedad dominada por los adolescentes y el uso deficiente de la voluntad y la razon. Es hora de unirse en la batalla cultural y deshacer las obras de la generacion idiota. Estas listo para unirte a la nueva derecha?

In our days there is an idiot generation, manipulated by a culture that, while massifying young people, makes them feel original; at the same time that deceives them in a thousand ways, makes them believe they are empowered; and at the same time that immers

Washed And Waiting (Expanded)
$16.99“Gay,” “Christian,” and “celibate” don’t often appear in the same sentence. Yet many who sit next to us in the pew at church fit that description, says author Wesley Hill. As a celibate gay Christian, Hill gives us a glimpse of what it looks like to wrestle firsthand with God’s “No” to same-sex relationships. What does it mean for gay Christians to live faithful to God while struggling with the challenge of their homosexuality? What is God’s will for believers who experience same-sex desires? Those who choose celibacy are often left to deal with loneliness and the hunger for relationships. How can gay Christians experience God’s favor and blessing in the midst of a struggle that for many brings a crippling sense of shame and guilt? Weaving together reflections from his own life and the lives of other Christians, such as Henri Nouwen and Gerard Manley Hopkins, Hill offers a fresh perspective on these questions. He advocates neither unqualified “healing” for those who struggle, nor their accommodation to temptation, but rather faithfulness in the midst of brokenness. “I hope this book may encourage other homosexual Christians to take the risky step of opening up their lives to others in the body of Christ,” Hill writes. “In so doing, they may find, as I have, by grace, that being known is spiritually healthier than remaining behind closed doors, that the light is better than the darkness.” This updated and expanded edition of the original book includes an additional chapter that continues Wesley’s story and further reflections on spiritual friendships and how the church can be a more welcoming place for those who choose to embrace a celibate calling.

10 Commandments Of Progressive Christianity
$7.99A cautionary look at ten dangerously appealing half-truths.
In 1923, J. Gresham Machen, then a professor at Princeton Seminary, wrote his classic text, Christianity and Liberalism. The book was a response to the rise of liberalism in the mainline denominations of his own day. Machen argued that the liberal understanding of Christianity was, in fact, not just a variant version of the faith, nor did it represent simply a different denominational perspective, but was an entirely different religion. Put simply, liberal Christianity is not Christianity.
What is remarkable about Machen’s book is how prescient it was. His description of liberal Christianity–a moralistic, therapeutic version of the faith that values questions over answers and being “good” over being “right”–is still around today in basically the same form. For this reason alone the book should be required reading, certainly for all seminary students, pastors, and Christian leaders.
Although its modern advocates present liberal Christianity as something new and revolutionary, it is nothing of the sort. It may have new names (e.g., “emerging” or “progressive” Christianity), but it is simply a rehash of the same well-worn system that has been around for generations.
The abiding presence of liberal Christianity struck me not long ago when I came across a daily devotional from Richard Rohr that listed ten principles he thinks modern Christianity needs to embody. These ten principles are actually drawn from Philip Gulley’s book, If the Church Were Christian: Rediscovering the Values of Jesus. In that devotional series, ironically titled “Returning to Essentials,” Rohr sets forth the ten principles as a kind of confessional statement of modern liberalism (while at the same time pretending to deplore confessional statements). They are, in effect, a Ten Commandments for progressive Christianity.
Indeed, these ten sound like they were gathered not so much on the mountaintop as in the university classroom. They are less about God revealing his desires and more about man expressing his own–less Moses, more Oprah.
But take note: each of these commandments is partially true. Indeed, that is what makes this list, and progressive Christianity as a whole, so challenging. It is a master class in half-truths that sound appealing on the surface until you dig down deeper and really explore their foundations and implications. Benjamin Franklin was right when he quipped, “Half the truth is often a

Finally Free : Fighting For Purity With The Power Of Grace
$19.99If you have struggled personally against the powerful draw of pornography, or if you have ever tried to help someone fighting this battle, you know how hard it is to break free. But real freedom isn’t found by trying harder to change. Nor is it found in a particular method or program. Only Jesus Christ has the power to free people from the enslaving power of pornography.
In Finally Free, Dr. Heath Lambert, a leader in the biblical counseling movement, lays out eight gospel-centered strategies for overcoming the deceitful lure of pornography. Each chapter clearly demonstrates how the gospel applies to this particular battle and how Jesus can move readers from a life of struggle to a life of purity.
If you or someone you care about is fighting this battle, there is good news: No matter how intense or long-standing the struggle, Jesus Christ can, will, and does set people free from the power of pornography.

Confronting Injustice Without Compromising Truth
$22.99God does not suggest, he commands that we do justice.
Social justice is not optional for the Christian. All injustice affects others, so talking about justice that isn’t social is like talking about water that isn’t wet or a square with no right angles. But the Bible’s call to seek justice is not a call to superficial, kneejerk activism. We are not merely commanded to execute justice, but to “truly execute justice.” The God who commands us to seek justice is the same God who commands us to “test everything” and “hold fast to what is good.”
Drawing from a diverse range of theologians, sociologists, artists, and activists, Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth, by Thaddeus Williams, makes the case that we must be discerning if we are to “truly execute justice” as Scripture commands. Not everything called “social justice” today is compatible with a biblical vision of a better world. The Bible offers hopeful and distinctive answers to deep questions of worship, community, salvation, and knowledge that ought to mark a uniquely Christian pursuit of justice. Topics addressed include:
Racism
Sexuality
Socialism
Culture War
Abortion
Tribalism
Critical Theory
Identity PoliticsConfronting Injustice without Compromising Truth also brings in unique voices to talk about their experiences with these various social justice issues, including:

He presents a compelling vision of justice for all God’s image-bearers that offers hopeful answers to life’s biggest questions.
