DEATH, WHERE IS YOUR VICTORY? DEATH, WHERE IS YOUR STING? 
It has been said that death is one of the last taboos. Even Christians confident of their salvation are often uncomfortable with thoughts of death. 
With his trademark compassion, pastoral wisdom, and insightful biblical exposition, Dr. Lutzer guides the reader to a deeper understanding of the meaning of the empty tomb, addressing issues like: 
<ul>
<li>Can Christians believe and still doubt?</li>
<li>Death: The end that comes to us all</li>
<li>Dying in the care of Jesus</li>
<li>Your resurrection body</li>
</ul>
This honest discussion about the end of our earthly lives—and the beginning of our glorious, eternal lives—will comfort and encourage, as we learn how Christ has replaced death's terror with triumph.

One Minute After You Die STUDY GUIDE

"He will be the preacher." Whether this was just an offhand remark or the woman leaning over his crib was speaking under inspiration from the Holy Spirit, either way, her prediction came to pass.This is the story of a shy, wisecrack kid from rural Canada becoming a well-known American preacher. It’s a story of seemingly random events deciding one man’s destiny. But most of all, it’s a story of God leading one of His dear children along.
Join Erwin Lutzer on this tour of his life—from a Saskatchewan farm to a Dallas seminary to the historic Moody Church in Chicago. Hear his personal reflections and tales of pastoral hardship. Meet the people who have shaped him: his parents, professors, family, and even the great evangelist Billy Graham. And see how his many roles—author, speaker, evangelist, historian, and cultural critic—have carried his prophetic voice beyond Moody’s pulpit, even abroad.
Part story and part reflection, full of heart with a dose of wit, He Will Be the Preacher is a personal and engaging witness to the providence of God.

The Church in Babylon: Heeding the Call to Be a Light in the Darkness

How do we live faithfully in a country becoming more and more hostile to our faith in Christ?
Like the Israelites in Babylon, we must find a way to maintain our faith in the midst of a pagan culture. But that requires we answer two crucial questions:
<ul>
<li>How did we get here?</li>
<li>How do we prepare for the dark and difficult days ahead?</li>
</ul>
In The Church in Babylon, Dr. Lutzer answers both of these questions. He will walk you through the many parallels between the church in America and God’s people in Babylon, and embolden you to be a gospel witness. You’ll be encouraged not to compromise your faith even when under constant pressure from all corners of society. And more than all this you will have a fresh encounter with Jesus Christ, as you consider the biblical role of those in exile.

"Be wrong about social security, be wrong about baseball, be wrong about your career choice, but don’t be wrong about where you will spend eternity."
How You Can Be Sure You Will Spend Eternity with God—it’s a big promise, but this short book delivers. It answers a host of questions, such as:
<ul>
<li>Will good deeds help me get into heaven?</li>
<li>Who goes to heaven and who doesn’t?</li>
<li>What role do I have in my own salvation?</li>
<li>Can I lose my salvation if I commit a serious sin?</li>
<li>Is it wrong to doubt my salvation, and what should I do if I doubt? </li>
</ul>
Dr. Lutzer takes many scriptural teachings and siphons them into clear, cohesive truths. The result is a concise, accessible book about how to be saved and be sure you are saved. It is straight gospel—applicable to the skeptic, newly saved, and long-time believer alike.

How You Can Be Sure You Will Spend Eternity with God

"To stand at the foot of the cross is to witness the purpose for which God created the world."
The cross is a wonder unfathomable. Time cannot contain its reach. No heart can endure its weight. And yet it is the center of everything. It cannot be passed over.
Pastor and author Erwin W. Lutzer believes that the better we grasp what the cross meant to Christ, the better we grasp what it should mean to us. To do this, Lutzer examines Jesus’ cries from the cross.
Search with him and see how God’s love and justice meet. Know the weight of sin and the power of redemption. Look upon Jesus in His weakness, obedience, sorrow, and compassion. Let the scandal of the cross give you pause. 
The cross deserves our attention. Journey forth into the heart of Jesus, that your own heart may be shaped to His.

Cries from the Cross: A Journey into the Heart of Jesus

“It is the best treatment of the person and work of the enemy I have ever read.” — R.C. Sproul, from the foreword to God’s Devil 
Many Christians are oblivious to the Devil and his schemes, and this is precisely the problem. If you don’t know why you need to know about the Devil, then this book is especially for you.
In God’s Devil, pastor and scholar Erwin W. Lutzer takes us to the corners of Scripture to which we seldom go. With surprising insights and potent quotes at every turn, God’s Devil will:
<ul>
<li>Teach you how Satan fits into God’s great plans for the world</li>
<li>Give you confidence in God’s everlasting victory over Satan</li>
<li>Equip you to withstand Satan’s schemes against you</li>
</ul>
Martin Luther once said, “Even the Devil is God’s devil.” So while this is a book about Satan, it is even more about God’s sovereign power over him. Read it for comfort, read it for peace, and read it for strength. 
Consider digging deeper with the God’s Devil DVD and study guide.
