Tough Issues, True Hope

… an invaluable resource for teachers, parents, youth leaders, and anyone involved in educating and discipling young people. The complex issues and conflicting messages of a secular, social media driven, and divisive culture make discernment of truth, beauty, and right from wrong extremely challenging.

-- Jim Marsh (Head of School Emeritus, Westminster Christian Academy, St. Louis, Missouri)

My 11th–grade Bible teacher knew how to teach apologetics and ethics. His lively, compelling lectures helped open my eyes to the importance of ideas for articulating, and living out, a robust faith. You’re holding his book in your hands. Written for teens and adults alike, this wide–ranging resource will orient you to the waterfront of ethical conundrums—none of which is hypothetical anymore.

Luke Davis has the incredible ability to engage his readers in productive thought and dialogue about issues that matter. 

-- Mickey Bowdon (Lead Partner, Bowdon Miller Shepherding Group)

Davis offers a road map to well–informed opinions about the critical issues of the day. He invites dialogue around matters that are sometimes muddled and often avoided in the midst of the ethical chaos which marks our current cultural moment. Peppered with anecdotes and soaked in Scripture, the reader learns to think carefully and live wisely. And all along the way, he makes room around the table for those who may not accept the Bible as authoritative. 

-- Tony Giles (Assistant Pastor, Cornerstone Presbyterian Church, Franklin, Tennessee)

This work will provide a valuable resource to teacher and student alike as they consider the ethical issues of today. More importantly, this work provides the tools to develop a framework for critical thought on issues yet to be considered.
