Mark 15 is a pivotal and solemn chapter in the Gospel narrative, chronicling the final hours of Christ's earthly life, from His unjust trial before Pontius Pilate to His brutal crucifixion and burial. The narrative unfolds with immense dramatic irony, as the suffering, silent King is mocked with a purple robe and a crown of thorns, yet is, in fact, fulfilling His divine purpose as the true King of the Jews and the promised Messiah.

While the Christian tradition has subordinated John the Baptist to Jesus of Nazareth, John himself would likely have disagreed with that ranking.

Romans 8 is widely considered the pinnacle of the Apostle Paul’s theological masterpiece, the Book of Romans. This pivotal chapter in the New Testament is a profound exploration of how believers should live, focusing heavily on the power and guidance of the Holy Spirit. It stands as a beacon of hope, contrasting the futility of trying to achieve righteousness through the "flesh" or the Law with the liberating reality of living "in Christ."

After 2,000 years of flawed history, here at last is a biography of Mary Magdalene that draws her out of the shadows of history and restores her to her rightful place of importance within Christianity. Throughout history, she has been both revered and reviled, a woman who has taken on many forms - witch, whore, the incarnation of the eternal feminine, and the devoted companion (and perhaps even wife) of Jesus. In this brilliant new biography, Bruce Chilton, a renowned biblical scholar, offers the first complete and authoritative portrait of this fascinating woman. His descriptions of who Mary was and what she did challenge the male-dominated history of Christianity familiar to most listeners.

The joy of salvation in the homecoming of a lost son. Love of neighbor by a marginalized Samaritan.

Drawing on scholarship on the parables as well as theological, pastoral, and practical insights, Webster guides the listener through each of Jesus's parables.

The Sermon on the Mount is Jesus' most inspiring and challenging description of the Christian counterculture. John Stott's teaching on this timeless text shows how its value system, ethical standard, religious devotion, and network of relationships clearly distinguish it from both the nominal church and the secular world.

Mary Magdalene is one of the most influential symbols in the history of Christianity - yet, if you look in the Bible, you'll find only a handful of verses that speak of her. How did she become such a compelling saint in the face of such paltry evidence? In her effort to answer that question, Cynthia Bourgeault examines the Bible, church tradition, art, legend, and newly discovered texts to see what's there.

After years of meticulously poring over the Hebrew and Greek Scriptures, Carl Gallups is leading listeners on a unique pilgrimage to Golgotha, tracking a supernatural and almost DNA-like encoding of that quintessential image throughout the Bible. Astonishingly, likenesses of Golgotha are visible from the beginning words of Genesis to some of the last words of Revelation—and in just the right places. Written, in part, in Gallups’ trademark, immersive-narrative style, Golgotha’s Groaning is unlike any of his other works as far as the degree of its explosive content and exciting disclosures.
