Steven Charleston's The Four Vision Quests of Jesus focuses on four specific experiences of Jesus as portrayed in the synoptic gospels. It examines each story as a “vision quest,” a universal spiritual phenomenon, but one of particular importance within North American indigenous communities.

Some people think of Jesus as a great prophet or a wise philosopher; others see him as an important religious leader or even a revolutionary. In this addition to the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series, Stephen Wellum challenges these claims as he argues for the divinity of Jesus according to Scripture and in line with creedal Christianity. In this brief introduction, we are invited to rejoice in the centrality of Christ―who as both God and man reconciles us to God.

In early Christianity, a diverse body of texts emerged alongside the canonical scriptures, many of which aimed to fill in gaps left by the New Testament narratives. Among these apocryphal works, the Gospel of Nicodemus, which includes the Acts of Pilate and the account of the Harrowing of Hell, stands out for its rich portrayal of the events surrounding Christ's trial, crucifixion, and descent into Hell. These texts, though non-canonical, offer a unique glimpse into early Christian beliefs and the theological debates that shaped the development of the faith.

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.

Each of us is the owner of a random collection of theologies, doctrines, and superstitions. It's a junk drawer of religious ideas and influences. It's the witticisms your grandmother tossed around with ease that sounded like they came from a religious text. It's an insight gleaned about God from a half-heard sermon at a friend's church. It's the mental screenshot of a meme shared on social media. It's the empowering idea you underlined in a book and wrote on a Post-it Note now forever affixed to your laptop.

In Lord Jesus Christ: Audio Lectures, scholar and author Daniel Treier takes up the study of the doctrine of Christ in a way that is biblical and historical, evangelical and ecumenical, conceptually clear and contextually relevant.

The resurrection is the pivot on which all of Christianity turns and without which none of the other truths would much matter. Without the resurrection of Jesus Christ, Christianity would be mere wishful thinking, taking its place alongside all other systems of human philosophy and religious speculation. Paul, however, declares that Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, therefore all who are in Christ Jesus will also be raised to life.

If you like your theology hot, caffeinated and stimulating, pour yourself a second cup of your favorite java and sit down with author, publisher, podcaster and freelance theologian Keith Giles as we explore topic like: Hell, the Second Coming, Biblical Inerrancy, Women in the Bible, the Gospel of Jesus, Deconstruction, Penal Substitution, LGBTQ+ clobber passages, and so much more!

Do you find yourself living in regret and fear more than in today’s reality? God calls us to serve Him in the current moment rather than worry about the past or the future. In He Walks with Me, Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe explores the I AM statements of God—from His burning-bush conversation with Moses, to His powerful reassurances to the Israelites, to Jesus’s startling claims to be the Light of the World, the Good Shepherd, and the True Vine.

Find rest in His invitation to make His mission your mission. Discover, as Falwell has, that a picture of the life of Jesus is worth a thousand days. In 1,000 Days Jonathan Falwell presents the unique chance to study this miracle, looking closely at those last three years in Jesus' life and revealing vital information form the gospels for our lives today. Meet Jesus like never before when you take a second (or maybe third or fourth) look at what He said in those 1,000 days. Each chapter also includes a special Bible study for use either by individuals or small groups.

Much needed today, the singularly potent Christology of Colossians and the application of key doctrines in Philemon put the sufficiency of Christ for salvation and transformed living on full display.

En tiempos del emperador Tiberio, un judío que predicaba la llegada del reino de Dios fue crucificado en Jerusalén por orden del prefecto romano Poncio Pilato. Este fue el inicio de un proceso que acabaría presentando a Jesús como un ser divino. Que esta glorificación prosiga hasta hoy exige del pensamiento crítico un exhaustivo ejercicio de examen y estudio.

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.

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.

Wheaton College scholar Nicholas Perrin takes on Ehrman and others who claim that the text of the New Testament has been corrupted beyond recognition. Perrin gives us a layman's guide to textual criticism so that listeners can understand the subtleties of Ehrman's critiques, and provides firm evidence to suggest that the New Testament can be trusted.

In Disruption: Repurposing the Church to Redeem the Community, Dr. Mark DeYmaz explains how the local church can adapt itself to the community around it in such a way that gives it credibility in the neighborhood while advancing the gospel in the process.

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?"

Is there archeological proof that Jesus existed? Did Jesus ever actually claim to be God? Is Jesus really the only way? There's a good chance that every Christian will be asked tough questions like these at some point in their lives, whether from combative skeptics, curious seekers, or even doubts in their own minds. To help followers of Christ answer questions quickly and confidently, Josh and Sean McDowell adapted the wisdom from their apologetics classic Evidence That Demands a Verdict into an accessible resource that provides answers to common questions about Jesus.

La Bible enseigne que Dieu est un en substance et trois en personne—le Père, le Fils et le Saint-Esprit. Bien que la Trinité soit clairement enseignée dans la Bible, celle-ci a été attaquée tout au long de l’histoire de l’Église, et de nombreux chrétiens aujourd’hui ne comprennent toujours pas cette doctrine fondamentale. Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul explique clairement la Trinité. Même si la Trinité est mystérieuse, elle ne constitue pas une contradiction, et elle est essentielle pour comprendre la nature de Dieu.

If God is the one in whom we all live and move and have our being, then perhaps, we are the ones in whom God lives and moves and has being, too. If so, where does God end, and where do we begin? In this book, author Keith Giles asks us to reconsider our common assumptions about God and ourselves in ways we've never imagined before.

Evangelical Christians often sing and preach about the blessed blood of Christ and the wonderful things it accomplishes for believers. To the uninformed ear, such language can convey the idea that Jesus’ blood had semi-magical qualities. Actually, Jesus’ blood was normal human blood, but the Bible refers to it in metaphorical terms to portray the many benefits that come to Christians because of Jesus’ death.

Penal substitutionary atonement—the belief that Jesus’s death on the cross satisfied God’s wrath against sin—is central to the Christian faith, but frequently debated. Is it just to punish an innocent person in place of the guilty? How can the temporary death of one substitute for the eternal death of many? Why doesn’t the cross grant Christians unlimited permission to sin? In this famous essay, late theologian J. I. Packer analyzes Scripture and the works of early Reformers to defend the truth of Christ’s substitutionary suffering and death, the heart of the Christian gospel.

Christ conquered the West the first time. And this is how he’ll do it again. And when he does it again, Christians must be ready to take the lead. Jesus really is the answer to taxes, civil resistance, and speech laws. However, Christians do not need another political platform. They need a plan. This book is that plan.

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.
