God speaks to us through the Bible. That book embodies his words. Creation itself is the visible embodiment of his power and wisdom. It is the result of his words. This book of his is, in a different way, the effect of his speaking. It is his written wisdom and power. There is his voice to us. The thunder and tempest are his loud voice of grandeur. The sunshine and the gentle breeze are his still small voice. But deeper, clearer, keener, softer, and still more penetrating than all of these is his written word to us.

One reason the Bible has endured for millennia is its ability to reach our common humanness and give uplifting insights about struggle, resilience, and hope.

We tend to think of the Holy Spirit as the straggler of the Trinity, a latecomer in God's interaction with the world. But our first introduction to the Holy Spirit is not the drama of Pentecost in the second chapter of Acts. We first meet the Holy Spirit in the second verse of the Bible, hovering there, speaking the world into existence. Christopher Wright begins here and traces the Holy Spirit through the pages of the Old Testament.

Charlé con una persona sin hogar en el semáforo en rojo y le dije que eran una bendición por recordarnos el quebrantamiento del mundo, en medio de la abundancia. Me dijo que el Mesías estaba a la vuelta de la esquina viniendo a arreglar las cosas. Pero ¿es el Mesías una persona, M mayúscula? O ¿es el mesías un texto, m minúscula? Si es un mesías texto, entonces no hay necesidad de esperar, ya que siempre ha estado ahí, escondido a plena vista, anhelando ser notado. Si es Mesías persona, entonces tendremos que esperar.

The violence in the Old Testament is one of the biggest obstacles facing Christianity today. Believers regularly identify it as one of the most confounding and challenging aspects of the entire Bible.

Many theologians, Bible scholars, and others have written commentaries on the Old Testament. And almost without exception, they have attempted to explain the intent and spiritual implications represented by the conflicting statements of the ancient writers without taking issue with the content itself. Unholy Dilemma: A Search for Logic in the Old Testament departs from the approach of presuming to divine what the ancient writers meant to say, and merely examines what they actually did say.

The books of Joshua, Judges and Ruth are part of the Old Testament of the Bible. They are considered historical books and tell stories of events occurring in historical time and place. Joshua is the sixth book of the Bible and tells the story of Israel’s conquest of Canaan. Judges is the seventh book of the Bible and tells the story of Israel’s history from the death of Joshua to the rise of the monarchy. Ruth is the eighth book of the Bible and tells the story of a Moabite woman who married an Israelite and became an ancestor of King David.
