How should Christians think about beauty in a world that is often ugly?  In Beauty Is Your Destiny, Philip Ryken provides readers with an introduction to the theology and practice of beauty, striving to awaken a longing for beauty that he explains “can only be satisfied in the face of Jesus Christ.” Adapted from chapel messages given at Wheaton College, Ryken considers key topics on Christian thought—including the Trinity, the incarnation, sexuality, and racial diversity—through the lens of beauty, showing how beauty illuminates each of these biblical principles in our world today.   Introduction to the Theology of Beauty: Great for college students, pastors, and small groups Biblically Based: Examines how beauty is seen in Christian doctrines such as eternity, the church, and the crucifixion  Written by Philip Ryken: President of Wheaton College and author of Grace Transforming; Is Jesus the Only Way?; and Loving the Way Jesus Loves","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56299699896693,"sku":"9781433587726","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781433587726_aedd5e85-63c0-4ee3-80c0-7163e676f982.jpg?v=1786019601"},{"product_id":"i-have-my-doubts-how-god-can-use-your-uncertainty-to-reawaken-your-faith","title":"I Have My Doubts – How God Can Use Your Uncertainty to Reawaken Your Faith","description":"10 Bible Stories of Faith and Doubt to Encourage Believers through Uncertainty  Will God do what he says he promises?
