Written by the evangelist John Mark, a traveling companion of both the Apostle Peter and Saint Paul, the Gospel of Mark is believed to be a compilation of the sermons of Peter. This shortest of the four accounts of the life of Jesus Christ often uses the word "immediately" in compellingly relating many of the teachings also recorded by Matthew, Luke, and John.

The Gospel of Matthew, perhaps the most detailed Biblical account of the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, begins with a genealogy reaching back to Abraham. This first book of the New Testament includes familiar passages such as the Sermon on the Mount (chapters 5-7), the Lord's Prayer, many of the healings and parables also found in the other three gospels, and the Great Commission (chapter 28), as well as deeply sobering words about the call to follow Jesus.

Ancient Near Eastern texts such as The Baal Cycle portray the pagan god Baal as a rebel—the hero of a revolution, worshiped and glorified for his long string of victories. In The Baal Book: A Biography of the Devil, Fr. Stephen De Young shows that the Hebrew Scriptures consciously turn the Baal story on its head, depicting him as a failed and defeated rebel who nonetheless tries to steal the glory that belongs to Almighty God. From these Scriptures, the figure of the Devil emerged within Jewish and Christian Tradition.

El nacimiento de Cristo es posiblemente una de las historias más controvertidas entre los creyentes. ¿Era María realmente virgen cuando quedó embarazada o José era el padre? ¿Encajaba Cristo con las señales del Mesías en el Antiguo Testamento o deberíamos buscar otro?

A medida que leemos los libros de Mateo y Lucas, comenzamos a tener una imagen más clara de los primeros doce años de la vida de Cristo.

One of the most frustrating aspects of prayer is finding the right vocabulary to express what is in your heart. Praying the Scriptures inspires, illuminates, gives imagery, intelligence, adds intensity, and helps provide intimacy in prayer.

Mark 13, often referred to as the Olivet Discourse, is a pivotal chapter within the New Testament, dedicated primarily to eschatology (the study of the end times) and Christ's prophecies regarding future events. Spoken by Christ on the Mount of Olives, overlooking the holy city of Jerusalem, this discourse addresses two main themes: the impending destruction of the temple and the ultimate second coming of Christ.

Ever wondered what the Bible really says about the end times? The Olivet Discourse (found in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21) is Christ's own, most detailed teaching on the subject, outside of the book of Revelation. This isn't just dry theology; it's a vital, prophetic roadmap for navigating the future and living with purpose right now.
