Much of what we commonly assume about singleness—that it is primarily about the absence of good things like intimacy, family, or meaningful ministry—is either flat-out untrue or, at the very least, shouldn't be true. To be single, we often think, is to be alone and spiritually hindered. But the Bible paints a very different picture of singleness: it is a positive gift and blessing from God.

John's first letter was written not to help readers believe but to help them know they believe. It's a message many of us need as we struggle to be sure that we really are saved or that we really are loved by God. When we need assurance, John's letters are the place to turn to. Unpacking these three short books verse by verse, pastor Sam Allberry helps listeners to face the letters' challenges and grow stronger in their faith, in the joyful certainty that they will always be God's beloved children.

In One with My Lord, Sam Allberry examines the doctrine of union with Christ through a rich study of New Testament scriptures.

In a time when people are searching for a place to belong, One with My Lord reminds believers that they have a perfect home in Christ.

Is it ok to be gay and Christian? Does the Bible really say that homosexuality is wrong? Is sexual orientation fundamental to identity? Author and speaker Sam Allberry has expanded and restructured his best-selling book, which draws on his own experience as a believer who experiences same-sex attraction. As well as exploring Bible passages that talk directly about homosexuality, this new edition frames the whole discussion with Jesus’ general teaching on sex and marriage, as well as what Jesus teaches about finding ultimate satisfaction and happiness.

Le célibat est une vraie mine de préjugés : il priverait de relations intimes ou d’une vie familiale.

L’auteur encourage les célibataires à saisir les occasions spécifiques à leur statut pour assumer leur rôle dans l’Église.

Es ist das brisante Thema unserer Zeit. Christen, die Kirche und die Bibel scheinen mit der modernen Haltung zur Homosexualität nicht im Einklang zu stehen. Und es gibt eine wachsende Feindseligkeit gegenüber denen, die die moderne Sicht nicht teilen. Ist Gott etwa homophob? Und was sagen wir zu Christen und Nichtchristen, die sich vom gleichen Geschlecht angezogen fühlen? Sam Allberry weiß, wovon er spricht. Mit diesem kurzen, leicht verständlichen Hörbuch möchte er verunsicherten Christen helfen zu verstehen, was Gott dazu in der Bibel gesagt hat.

In What God Has to Say about Our Bodies, Sam Allberry explains that all of us are fearfully and wonderfully made, and should regard our physicality as a gift.

Christians are increasingly seen as outdated, restrictive, and judgmental when it comes to sex before marriage, cohabitation, homosexuality, gender identity, and transgender rights. In fact, for many people, this issue is one of the biggest barriers for them considering Christianity. Sam Allberry sets out God's good design for the expression of human sexuality, showing that God himself is love and that only he can satisfy our deepest desires. Why Does God Care Who I Sleep With? is a great reminder of the Bible's positive blueprint for love, sex, and marriage.

While singleness is often widely misunderstood by many in the church today and often viewed in negative terms, the Bible speaks about it very differently. This book sets forth a positive vision of singleness by responding to seven common misconceptions, such as the notion that singleness is too hard, requires a special spiritual gift, is a hindrance to ministry, or is a waste of sexuality. Addressed to the church as a whole and written by a single pastor....

There are many paths to lose your way. And only one way to find it. So said Jesus of Nazareth, the most compelling and controversial teacher of all time. This book aims to make sense of his counterintuitive claim: Unless we lose our lives for his sake, we will never discover our true selves. Writers from around the world tell their stories of healing and hope amid many hardships. Joni Eareckson Tada, Sam Allberry, Christopher Yuan, Aixa de Lopez, and many other contributors share how God found them amid many dangers, toils, and snares.

The church has an image problem. It is widely viewed in the world at large as being outdated, boring, irrelevant and filled with backbiting hypocrites. How different that picture is to how the Bible talks about the new family that Jesus has gathered.
