Fool's Gold? In an age of open-mindedness, many believers accept too much with too little discernment, resulting in great confusion and compromise. But God’s Word makes it clear that not everything that glitters is gold. False teaching is at every turn, and the temptation to embrace it is great. As God’s people we are called to sift through the overwhelming number of traditions and trends and use the truth of Scripture to determine which are the true treasures—and which are "fool’s gold."

General editor John MacArthur and the contributors of this uncompromising book define the principles of biblical discernment and use them to address several contemporary Christian issues. They provide straightforward, biblical critiques of some popular but unfortunate Christian trends, such as watered-down preaching and doctrinally questionable best-selling books. Dr. MacArthur ends with a practical plan for cultivating discernment in the Christian life.

It is the duty of every Christian—not just pastors and elders—to follow the biblical command to cling to what is good and to reject what is not. This book will equip you with a foundation for biblical discernment that will enable you to make careful distinctions in your thinking about truth.

Explores important questions about:

The Purpose Driven Life, The Revolve New Testament for girls, The Wild at Heart book for men, The "New Perspective on Paul" movement, Contemporary worship, plus more.

Salvation

Hard to Believe: The High Cost and Infinite Value of Following Jesus (2003) John MacArthur gets to the heart of Christian faith and discipleship by revealing the challenging things Jesus had to say about being His true follower.

Popular perception of Jesus Christ is that of a tempered, genteel man who walked the earth, offering nuggets of wisdom to His followers. But what we sometimes fail to recognize is that although Jesus Christ offered a message of forgiveness, He also spoke challenging, demanding words about what being a follower of Christ requires.

In contrast to the superficiality of much modern Christian teaching, Dr. John MacArthur serves up the unvarnished truth of what Christ taught and lived. In simple, compelling terms, he spells out what is required of those who would follow Him. Going beyond Jesus’ life to include the crucifixion and resurrection, MacArthur shows readers that Jesus modeled the commitment and loving obedience He requires of us by making the ultimate sacrifice for humankind.

Babies

Safe in the Arms of God (2003) Hopeful Words for Broken-Hearted Parents. If you have ever faced the death of a child, or you have ever had to comfort a mom or dad whose little one died, you need to be able to answer some crucial questions: Where do babies go when they die? How can I know my baby is in heaven? Why did my child have to die?

Bible Study

Unleashing God's Word In Your Life (2003) John MacArthur shares what he has learned about the Bible, how to study it, and how to discern its meaning. Here’s a companion for anyone’s Bible study that is solid, meaningful, and practical.

Prayer

Lord, Teach Me to Pray (2003) Rekindle Your Passion for Prayer And Your Love for Your Heavenly Father. God longs for you to communicate with Him, telling Him all the issues of your heart. But specifically, how do you pray? Is there a right way and a wrong way? In Lord, Teach Me to Pray, John MacArthur shows you what Christ Himself taught about prayer,

Heaven

The Glory of Heaven: The Truth About Heaven, Angels and Eternal Life (1998) It could be next year. Next month. Perhaps tomorrow. Sooner or later, you'll endure a day so dark, you won't be able to see past it. Just then, your heart longs for home. A secure place. An eternal place. A place that knows nothing of sin and its effects. A place to live in the very presence of God, untouched by sorrow, pain, loneliness, or fear. You're longing for heaven. This volume critically examines modern claims and misconceptions about heaven, and in response, displays an accurate, biblically defensible portrait of life in eternity--our glorious future home.

Children

I Believe in Jesus If you've ever tried sharing the gospel with a child, you know how challenging it can be. Even the simplest concepts can become complex as you find yourself adrift in a sea of "whys" and "hows." So where do you start? How do you explain sin and faith? What are the essentials of the gospel your child must understand to be saved? With those questions in mind, John MacArthur and his daughter, Melinda, have created a fully-illustrated, hardcover book for children. The goal? To help you teach the little ones in your life about Christ. In I Believe in Jesus, John explains the gospel in terms your little ones can grasp. And our special edition, exclusively available from Grace to You, features sixteen warm, inviting watercolor illustrations by Melinda MacArthur.
I Believe in Jesus is an ideal tool for pulling children onto your lap, teaching them about Christ, and bringing the gospel to life.

Leadership

Twelve Ordinary Men What is most amazing about the disciples is that Jesus ever selected them at all: among them a handful of common fishermen, a hated tax collector, and an impulsive political zealot. They weren’t the stained-glass saints we imagine. As John MacArthur puts it, they were a bunch of regular guys. Weak, prone to mistakes, remarkably unremarkable, and 100% human. Simply said, they were like us. But under Jesus’ teaching and touch, they became a force that forever changed the world. In his new book Twelve Ordinary Men, John MacArthur takes you into the inner circle of the disciples—their selection, their training, their personalities, their impact. As you get to know the men who walked with Jesus, you’ll see that if He can accomplish His purposes through them, He can do the same through you.

Islam

"Terrorism, Jihad, and the Bible September 11, 2001 saw the deadliest attack ever launched on American soil, leaving us asking questions such as: Why did God permit such a thing to happen? Was the attack a divine judgment or was it merely an atrocity perpetrated by the forces of evil? How can human beings be capable of such diabolical savagery in the name of religion? And what is the right course of action for our government to take? John MacArthur points us to the Bible for answers to these and many other questions arising out the recent atrocities.

Creation

The Battle for the Beginning Many Christians who claim to believe the Bible seem willing to allow modern scientific theories to replace the Genesis account of creation. But that compromise is a dangerous one. Genesis 1-3 contains the foundation of every doctrine essential to the Christian faith. Discount or discard the creation account, and you’ve undermined the foundation of Christianity and the gospel. In The Battle for the Beginning, John MacArthur explores the creation-evolution debate, and most important, walks you step by step through the Bible’s own account of the origin of the universe. Thoroughly researched, well documented, and easy to read, this new volume tackles the tough questions and equips you to face the battle being waged inside and outside the church.

Election

The God Who Loves The cry of the human soul has always been to be loved faithfully, deeply, and completely. In The God Who Loves, John MacArthur gives a passionate, well-argued defense for what the love of God is—and what it is not. He explores the persistent themes of God's love and goodness throughout the Old and New Testaments and tackles the difficult questions head-on with frank, thoroughly biblical answers.

End Times

The Second Coming The answer to that question has always been yes. But pressing questions remain. Will we get there soon? And more important, how do we prepare? In The Second Coming, John MacArthur takes an exhilarating look at the events surrounding the return of our Lord. You'll find answers to questions that burn in the heart of every believer.

America

Can God Bless America? In Can God Bless America? John MacArthur argues that God can bless America, but only when the clear biblical conditions are met. Includes a critical look at one approach to turning America around that’s extremely popular among Christians and political conservatives—moral reform through political action

Salvation

The Gospel According to Jesus What does it mean to be a Christian? Is it just believing certain facts about Jesus Christ, with no real demands on your life or changes in how you live? Or is submitting to Christ as Lord inherent in receiving Him as Savior? The Gospel According to Jesus answers those questions by looking at Jesus' own teaching about salvation, repentance, and true faith.

Forgiveness

The Freedom and Power of Forgiveness To be human is to desperately need forgiveness. And not only God’s. Real forgiveness is vital for healthy, strong relationships between husbands and wives, parents and children, friends, co-workers, and everyone in between. But what’s the difference between forgiving someone and tolerating sin? And how should you and your church respond when a professing believer refuses to repent? How does modern psychology line up with God’s Word when it comes to healing damaged relationships? The Freedom and Power of Forgiveness explores the issues thoughtfully and thoroughly.

Church

The Master’s Plan for the Church Christ never intended church leadership to be earned by seniority, purchased with money, or inherited through family ties. Instead, it is absolutely essential that the local church adhere unfalteringly to biblical leadership principles, perceiving itself as an institution for the glory of God. Drawing from some of his best-received material on church leadership, Dr. MacArthur guides the church with crucial, effective lessons in leadership. This book is valuable not only for pastors and elders, but for anyone else who wants the church to be what God intended it to be.
