New Radical Islam Book Declares: ‘This is the War of Our Generation!’

Dr. Jim Denison Explains to Westerners ‘Why Muslims Still Hate Us, What We Can Do’

DALLAS, Texas – On the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States, author and educator Jim Denison explains in his new book, “Radical Islam: What You Need to Know,” that the greatest threat our children have ever faced is Muslim extremism. “The battle waged against the West by radical Muslims is the war of our generation,” Denison says. “Killing bin Laden doesn’t end this war.”

 James C. Denison, Ph.D., is a cultural apologist, building a bridge between faith and culture by engaging contemporary issues with historical, scientific and biblical truth. He founded the Denison Forum on Truth and Culture (DFTC) in February 2009 and writes for “The Dallas Morning News,” contributing weekly to the “Texas Faith Forum.” He currently serves on the board of the Baylor Health Care System and as chair of the advisory board for Dallas Baptist University. Denison is former senior pastor of Park Cities Baptist Church, a 10,000-member congregation in Dallas. 

Dr. Denison’s daily cultural commentary is made available around the world to thousands of subscribers. It offers a faith perspective on topics as varied as medical ethics, the 2012 election, the Casey Anthony trial, gay marriage and many more topics.

 “The events of 9/11 are still painfully raw for many,” said Dr. Abraham Sarker, former Muslim and founder and president, Gospel for Muslims, who has worked alongside Denison in his native Bangladesh. “Ten years later questions remain about the world’s fastest growing religion and the worldview of its 1.6 billion adherents. Jim Denison’s book provides a timely, insightful interpretation of this movement in our times. His understanding of radical Islam is accurate and balanced. His intellectual brilliance and excellent communication skills engage and support readers in navigating these complex issues.”

 “Radical Islam” begins with a look at Osama bin Laden, the Al Qaeda leader killed in May in a U.S. Special Forces raid in Pakistan, and examines the ramifications of bin Laden’s death, including whether it was just. The book goes on to explain what distinguishes radical Islam from the rest of the Muslim world, then addresses basic questions: “Where was God on 9/11?” and “How Do We Win This War?”

 “It’s been my privilege to know and befriend Muslims from six continents through respectful dialogue over the past 30 years,” said Denison. “But the fact remains that the threat of radical Islam is even more real and dangerous than it was 10 years ago. Osama bin Laden is dead, but his story isn’t over. His followers are more resolved than ever.

 “This book is a primer that tells Westerners what they need to know about this threat, why radical Muslims still hate us and what we can do about it.”

 Denison briefly touches on basic Muslim beliefs before focusing on the two tenets that distinguish radical Islam. First, extremists contend the West has been attacking Islam since the Crusades, and therefore Islam must be defended through violent attacks. Second, radical Muslims believe all Westerners are complicit in the ongoing siege of Islam because of their participation in a democratic society, and therefore in terrorist attacks on the West there are no innocent victims.

Faced with this worldview, Denison writes, both Christians and secular Westerners must act. He offers practical ideas on how to handle the threat, including praying for Muslims and supporting Christians from Muslim backgrounds.

 “Radical Islam” will be available in August as a trade paperback for $13.99 and distributed by Wescott Marketing. It also will be available as an e-book Aug. 15 through all major e-book sales sites.

 The first chapter, which explores bin Laden’s life and whether his death was just, along with an opportunity to subscribe to Dr. Denison’s daily cultural commentary, are available at www.dftc.co/presskit.

 “Radical Islam” is the first in the “Unlocking the Truth” series of books offering a spiritual perspective on key cultural issues facing America. Denison is also the author of six books, including the most recent, “Wrestling with God: How Can I Love a God I’m Not Sure I Can Trust?” by Tyndale House Publishers.

 The Denison Forum on Truth and Culture (DFTC) (www.denisonforum.org)  exists to engage contemporary culture with moral truth. Founded by Dr. Jim Denison in 2009, the Forum responds to issues through a variety of communications and channels, including a column in “The Dallas Morning News,” daily online cultural commentary, Baylor Health Care System board membership, books, articles and speaking engagements.

Colorado Springs, CO - For hundreds of years the church has championed the beauty of God’s creation,
demonstrating in many ways how it points to the Creator. However over the last century, the Christian
community has let the value of caring for creation slip away. In Saving God’s Green Earth, author and pastor
Tri Robinson makes a compelling case for the biblical precedence behind environmental stewardship and
shows the church what it can do about this eroding value!

Through sharing both his own personal story and the story of his church in response to environmental concerns, Robinson clearly shows how important this value is and how effective it is in showing others the Creator!

Not only does Robinson inspire the reader to care for the environment, he reveals a clear pathway to making the value of environmental stewardship real in both the life of the reader and the Christian community in which he or she is involved.

“This is not weird or radical,” says Tri Robinson, “it’s obedience! Environmental stewardship is simply caring, managing and nurturing what we have been given. And there’s something unique about using environmental community service to show others the beauty of the creator!”

Tri Robinson, an Ecology major, began teaching and eventually entered ministry. Tri is the Founding Pastor of the Vineyard Boise Church in Boise, ID. On a Sunday, after feeling called by God, much prayer and
consultation with church leaders, Tri approached the pulpit and his congregation to speak on this subject of
environmental stewardship. Knowing that this could be polarizing and controversial, he watched in awe after both services as his congregation rose to their feet and applauded.

Since that day, Tri and his church have put their enthusiasm and concern for the environment into action with programs such as Tithe Your Trash, Christmas Tree Reforestation, Re-cycled cell phones to Katrina Relief Aid, and conservation projects all through Idaho.

Tri’s church and their work have caught the eye of many ministry and National organizations. Currently PBS is in production of a documentary on Christian environmentalists featuring Tri’s church. You can also read more online at MinistriesToday, The Idaho Statesman & the Boise Weekly. For more information and to view a
documentary on their work please visit www.SavingGodsGreenEarth.com and www.LetsTendTheGarden.org.

Tri has served on the national board for the Association of Vineyard Churches USA and as a regional overseer for more than 100 churches. With a strong teaching background that includes a Masters degree in administrative education, he is a sought-after conference speaker and passionate about transferring his working insights and experience on church leadership to a wide spectrum of churches. He is also the author of Revolutionary Leadership by Ampelon Publishing. Tri and his wife, Nancy, life in Sweet, Idaho, and have two grown children, Kate and Brook.

“Jesus in a New Age, Dalai Lama World”

New Book Tells How to Share Christ with Tibetan Buddhists, Westerners Enamored with, Influenced by the Eastern Religion

UPPER DARBY, Pa. – “Jesus in a New Age, Dalai Lama World,” an essential primer for defending and sharing Christianity with Tibetan Buddhists and Westerners enamored with or influenced by the Eastern religion, has been just published by Interserve USA.

The book’s author is M. Tsering (a pseudonym), a professional man who has worked among Tibetan Buddhists for two decades and still travels and ministers to them. The pseudonym is used for security reasons.

The book is designed to be read in a world where Tibetan Buddhism is a worldwide religion and also has become a part of main stream American culture, as evidenced in such popular television shows as “My Name Is Earl.” Tibetan Buddhism has been highly influential in the religious ecumenical movement, said Rev. Douglas Van Bronkhorst, Interserve USA executive director.

“Tibetan Buddhism has been embraced by many of the cultural and intellectual elite, who are drawn by its message of peace, compassion and spiritual self-gratification,” said Van Bronkhorst.

The book is a practical guide for anyone planning full-time or short-term mission service, or someone witnessing to an Asian immigrant or casually talking with a neighbor or colleague.

“This well-researched, in-depth work on the history, culture and influence of Tibetan Buddhism is highly readable,” Van Bronkhorst said. “The point of view is unapologetically evangelical Christian. Tibetan Buddhists need Jesus!”

Van Bronkhorst said M. Tsering’s book is unique among books on Tibetan Buddhism and Christianity, which traditionally have taken a trendy, interfaith point of view.

“Jesus in A New Age Dalai Lama World” reveals how a clear understanding of Tibetan Buddhist beliefs can help Christians live out the life of Christ in ways that Buddhists will appreciate,” said Dr. Ralph Winter, founder of the U.S. Center for World Mission.

“M. Tsering’s book…is the clearest and most compelling book I have read on the subject of Buddhism, and how Buddhists can be reached through the gospel,” said missionary author Thomas Hale.

With a colorful book jacket, the paperback has 356 pages and is priced at $14.95. The first edition was published in 1988, but has been substantially revised and updated with new material added because of changes that have taken place in the Tibetan Buddhist world. The Soviet Union is gone, Mongolia is a democracy, and China has abandoned Maoism. A glossary has been added to aid readers unfamiliar with Tibetan or Chinese terms. Standard transliterations of Tibetan words are in the glossary.

The book can be ordered from Wesscott Marketing by calling toll free 1-800-375-3702 or by emailing request to wesscottmkt@msn.com.

Interserve USA (www.interserveusa.org) is part of an international and interdenominational fellowship of Christians committed to each other in a partnership for service to the people of North Africa, the Middle East and Asia. It is made up of Christian professionals and highly trained personnel who use their skills to minister holistically to the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of the people they serve.

ST. LOUIS PARK, MN., March 17, 2006 – Pioneer, legend and forerunner are all terms that have been used to describe Dallas Holm, a long time veteran of Christian music. Signature songs like “I’ll Rise Again”, “A Broken Heart”, and “Chain of Grace”, 35 recordings, sales in the millions, number one songs, Gold records, a Grammy nomination, and multiple Dove awards, make Holm’s resume read like a Who’s Who in a Christian Music Hall of Fame.

More importantly, his “track record” plus his consistent unwavering commitment to ministry has left an indelible mark on millions who have been impacted by the various aspects of his music and ministry.

His latest project is entitled “Good News Blues”. “This is the one that I’ve always wanted to do but was afraid to take the risk,” says Holm. “I’ve always loved blues, but struggled to find the right formula to create Christian Blues. The struggle is over! I believe this CD , which contains everything from good kickin’ electric blues and horn sections to old acoustic “small room” blues, delivers the goods musically but even more so lyrically”.

Both directly and indirectly, God has used Holm to shape the landscape of today’s Christian music. Comments like, “He’s my hero,” or “His was the first contemporary album I ever heard and it got me started,” and “I committed my life to Christ at one of his concerts,” are the testimonials of such popular and influential artists as Steven Curtis Chapman, Twila Paris and Greg Long of Avalon.

Holm continues to travel, with his wife of 35 years, doing concerts all across the country. He also enjoys many opportunities to speak and to teach what God has taught him through this journey.
