We tend to think of Advent as the season of anticipation before Christmas—and while it is that, it's also much more. Throughout its history, the church has observed Advent as a preparation not only for the first coming of Christ in his incarnation but also for his second coming at the last day. It's also about a third coming: the coming of Christ to meet us in our present moment, to make us holy by his Word and Sacrament. Priest and writer Tish Harrison Warren explores all three of these "comings" of Christ and invites us into a deeper experience of the first season of the Christian year.

Separating fact from fiction, Professor Le Donne places Jesus within the context of first-century Judaism, and explores the debate about his status as 'Son of God' among the early Christians. He then follows his legacy through medieval Europe, and compares the various cultural Jesuses in enlightenment and post-enlightenment thought.

Rev. Richard D. Phillips digs into the early chapters of the Gospel of John to discover principles you can use for Christian outreach that were modeled by witnesses for Jesus and by Jesus Himself. Phillips unfolds biblical principles for evangelism by examining the ministry of John the Baptist and the calling of the first of Jesus’ disciples. Then, through a brief study of the Lord’s encounter with the Pharisee Nicodemus, he presents us with a theology of the gospel. Finally, he focuses in on Jesus' stirring encounter with the Samaritan woman to show exactly how Christ shared the good news.

Mozliwe, ze jestes zly na Boga albo obecnie w niego nie wierzysz. A moze wierzysz w Boga, ale zostales zraniony. Moze jestes muzulmaninem, wyznawca hinduizmu, buddysta lub innego wyznania. Byc moze jestes w zupelnie innym miejscu, którego nawet ty nie potrafisz okreslic... Niezaleznie od tego, przyjacielu, jak sie czujesz i gdzie jestes, Bóg Biblii - od pierwszej do ostatniej ksiegi - zaprasza cie, a nawet "prosi", bys zapytal: "Kim jest Jezus?"

Ric Machuga argues on biblical, historical, and theological grounds that universal salvation is necessary for a coherent proclamation of the Gospel. A creation in which some people suffer unending torment because God either can’t or won’t bring them to repentance is not good news. This last sentence is sure to provoke protest: “But what about free will?” Machuga responds by exposing modern assumptions.

Seeing Jesus as He Really Is takes you on a journey through the Gospels and along the way, you'll see how Jesus really lived, how He radically changed the world, and how Jesus is portrayed through the word of God. Seeing Jesus as He Really Is will help every listener know how to answer the questions that Jesus asked His disciples, "Whom do men say that I am" and "Who do you say that I am?"

The gospel of God is the Bread of the Presence, and it reaches down into the deepest, darkest, ugliest recesses of the human spirit, the places polite chit-chat won’t allow, the places watery juice doesn’t open up, the places where crawfish and other creeping things of the swamps live. These are the places in which we run to the altar and find the bread, still warm. Places in which we begin to get full. Where our only food becomes God Himself. .

The theme of divine sonship stretches across the pages of the Bible: from Adam in the garden of Eden, through the nation of Israel and King David, and ultimately to Jesus Christ in the New Jerusalem―the Son of God par excellence. In this volume, renowned biblical scholar Graeme Goldsworthy shows what Christ's fulfillment of the divine sonship motif means for all who are sons and daughters of God.

Una propuesta revolucionaria que plantea un nuevo cristianismo, basado en el amor, a través de una figura simbólica: El Tercer Jesús.

This is an improvisational book written by an improvisor about the improvisational nature of Jesus, reality, and an improvisational creation. Say that three times fast. This book is an amalgam of memoir, theology, and improv. Tanner is vulnerable, brutally honest, and a little silly as he conjures a portrait of an improvisational reality. Everything is the same, but exactly different (and it always will be) and this book considers how improv and Jesus provoke us towards eternal affirmations of difference.

Jesus Christ is the most influential human to ever walk the earth. We've heard and seen so many depictions of Him that we think we know Him better than we actually do. If we took the time to really look at Him, we might be surprised at what we'd find. In 52 Weeks with Jesus, author and pastor James Merritt leads you on a transformational journey as he shares what he's learned over a lifetime of studying Jesus' life and ministry.

Just when you thought you knew who Jesus was, along comes a book like this to profoundly challenge and wonderfully inspire. Most Christians are unaware of how different their Western worldview is from those who wrote the original accounts of Jesus’ life. Pastor Jeff Deuble issues a clarion call to prioritize biblical testimony over the later church creeds that were influenced by Greek philosophical thinking, so as to rediscover simple, uncluttered Christianity.

The journey from the known to the unknown can be terrifying. It takes a lot of courage to leave the relative comfort and safety of the familiar to embark on a voyage of discovery into enigmatic and potentially dangerous waters. But exploration is always worth the risk and nothing worth finding ever comes without some degree of peril. The book you hold in your hand does not purport to be a map to guide you easily through troubled waters nor does it claim to have all of the answers to assuage you as you question fundamental tenets of faith or religion.

Growing up in religion, I believed that I was blessed as long as I was doing something productive for God, or I was forgiven as long as I begged and pleaded for forgiveness. The words "free" or "gift" never clicked. Whenever I heard the gospel, there was a contingent on it, "You are saved by grace through faith, but…" This "but" would always lead to something extra one must do not to lose this free gift. This mixed message left me confused, burnt out, and further away from God.

A writing born out of the desire to know Christ more fully and to understand His glory and sacrifice more completely, this work inspires and encourages an increase in both faith and theological understanding. Focusing on the role, nature, and example of Jesus Christ, Owen ties together the Savior’s sacrifice on Earth to His ultimate glory and transformation at the Father’s side. Owen’s words reflect and therefore spark a unique craving to personally witness Christ in all of His heavenly and fully realized glory.

The four-volume audio commentary covers the entire text of the Book of Mormon and this fourth and final volume covers Third Nephi chapter 8 through Moroni chapter 10.

When someone thinks of Jesus, “genius” is not likely the first word that comes to mind. But when studied in detail, Jesus’s teachings and interactions with others combined high levels of knowledge and insight, verbal skill, and simplicity—showing his genius. In The Surprising Genius of Jesus, Peter J. Williams examines the story of the prodigal son in Luke 15 to show the genius, creativity, and wisdom of Jesus’s teachings. He used simple but powerful stories to confront the Pharisees and scribes of the day, drawing on his knowledge of the Jewish Scriptures to teach his audience.

This four-volume work entitled Treasures from the Book of Mormon, was originally prepared as a university course, but each volume is easy and comfortable to listen to and has therefore proven highly popular with seminary students and those preparing for missions. It is also used extensively as a "Come Follow Me" course of study for adults. This audiobook is a narration of the Book of Mormon along with historical commentary by W. Cleon Skousen, who taught the Book of Mormon at Brigham Young University for many years.

In this stirring systematic theology of atonement, Owen Strachan turns our gaze to the biblical Jesus—the greater David, a mighty king who comes in the power of God to save sinners and destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). The true Jesus is the most fascinating subject in all history: he is Lamb and Lion, gentle and ferocious, divine yet a humble servant. All these graces bear down on one moment in time: the cross. The Warrior Savior brings together strands of doctrine that are too often separated, notably penal substitutionary atonement and Christus Victor.
