Psalms is a Bible book of the Christian Old Testament and is a collection of compositions to thank God and pledging for his help. Many of the psalms are linked to the name of King David. They help us to overcome difficult times and keep trust in God.

The Bible teaches that God is always faithful, that He’s always TRUE to HIS WORD. Saints throughout history have affirmed it, and hymns and worship songs celebrate it. But what if it doesn’t look that way to you? You’re not alone. These meditations are designed to help you grow in your ability to recognize God’s faithfulness in places you may not typically look, at times you don’t expect, and in providences—especially the most disturbing and devastating ones—that often don’t look like God’s faithfulness.

Psalm 23 is one of the most recognizable passages in the whole Bible. Though relatively short, this poetic depiction of God's love epitomizes Christ's goodness and provision as he leads his children. Even lifelong Christians will find fresh encouragement by closely studying these familiar words. David Gibson walks through each verse in Psalm 23, thoroughly examining its 3 depictions of the believer's union with Christ as sheep and shepherd, traveler and companion, and guest and host.

The third book in the Old Testament, and the Torah is the Book of Leviticus. Some have also called it the Third Book of Moses. Leviticus details ritual, legal, and moral practices God instructs the Israelites to follow. Although the content is distant from modern life, it offers insights into ancient Israelite culture and religious life. It provides a glimpse into how the people connected with God through their rituals and sacrifices.

So ging Hagar weiter mit ihrem Sohn im Arm. Gab ihm ihre ganze Kraft. Kämpfte um jeden Schritt. Um jeden Herzschlag. Der Wind wirbelte den Sandstaub auf. Hüllte sie in einen rostroten Schleier. Zum ersten Mal kreuzte etwas ihren Weg. Doch es war nur ein weiteres Opfer der Dürre Hagar legte Ismael in den Schatten des Busches. Dann eilte sie taumelnd von ihm fort. Nicht, weil sie sich an ihr Versprechen halten wollte. Sondern weil sie ihrem Kind nicht beim Sterben zusehen konnte.

In volume 2 of this series, Mark Talbot explores Scripture’s account of the origin, spread, and eventual end of suffering, giving Christians the perspective they need to get through life’s difficult times. He encourages listeners to see themselves within the Bible’s storyline (creation, rebellion, redemption, and consummation), finding the courage to endure and taking comfort that God is at work for their good.

Muitos acreditam ser a obra mais bela escrita depois da Bíblia, pois de maneira simples Tomas de Kempis cria uma pedagogia crista explorando o mais profundo do ser humano e todas as suas limitações e os desejos mais secretos de seus corações.

Weaving direct quotations from the Bible into a fluid narrative, The First Seventy: A Retelling Commentary, Creation - The Ten Commandments retells and explains the interconnected story that spans the first seventy chapters of the Bible.

Divine Context is a world where the word of God is opened and revealed in the context of divinity. Scriptures, situations, and events within the Bible that have been unexplained for generations are revealed with detail and confirmed by the scriptures. Divine Context will introduce you to the truth of the scriptures and to the knowledge of God that will help to reveal the long-hidden mysteries of the Bible.

We cannot know Jesus without knowing his story. Today the debate over who Jesus is rages on. Has the Bible bound Christians to a narrow and mistaken notion of Jesus? To answer these questions we need to know what story Jesus claimed for himself. Christopher Wright is convinced that Jesus's own story is rooted in the story of Israel. In this revised and updated book he traces the life of Christ as it is illuminated by the Old Testament. And he describes God's design for Israel as it is fulfilled in the story of Jesus.

Read by the author. Do you often feel nervous, restless, or tense? Is there a feeling in the pit of your stomach that sometimes feels crippling? Does the potential danger or panic feel like it’s taken over your life? If yes is your response to those questions, you are not alone. Pastor and...

Nurit stieg auf den Hügelkamm und drehte sich nach Sodom zu. In ihren tränenvollen Augen spiegelten sich die Flammen der brennenden Stadt. Die Mauern brachen ein, wie eine Flutwolke raste eine Aschewolke auf sie zu. Nurit schloss die Augen und breitete die Arme aus. Dann wurde sie von Schwärze überschwemmt.

Will I have enough? Am I enough? Do I matter? Deep in our souls is an ache that longs to be noticed, filled, transformed. And that ache boils down to these three fundamental questions. The extraordinary thing is that we find the answers to all three questions in the temptations of Christ. As Jesus faces the wilderness, the core needs of every human being are on display: the ache to be secure, to be approved of, to have some control over our lives. But the ways that we are tempted to fill these needs inevitably fail.

Vivemos dias em que a fé cristã tem crescido e se espalhado grandemente. Mas temos que reconhecer que esse avanço tem acontecido a uma velocidade muito maior do que a capacidade de a Igreja amadurecer. Com isso, a maneira de Deus agir nem sempre corresponde às nossas expectativas. Mesmo imaturos, imaginamos que podemos entender a maneira como Deus determina sua vontade. Tentamos encontrar respostas para tudo, como se nosso raciocínio limitado pudesse esquadrinhar a mente do Senhor. Se algo acontece com alguém, sabemos o porquê; se deixa de acontecer, também temos a resposta.

To be JourneyWise is to discover and live out the simple yet powerful truths of the Beatitudes. It is through the Beatitudes, which literally mean “blessings,” that Jesus gives us a new definition of significance before leading us to reflect on the deeper meaning of life, our relationship with God, and the interconnections we have with others. They speak to our friendships, actions, fears, prejudices, and joys. They are pragmatic, powerful lessons wrapped in simple words. In their simplicity and accuracy, the Beatitudes yield amazing results when practiced faithfully.

The God of the Old Testament commanded and endorsed many practices that we find morally reprehensible today. High on the list was the institution of slavery, which features prominently in several sections of the Hebrew Bible. Fathers could sell their daughters into slavery, masters could beat their slaves, creditors could carry off children for failure to repay a debt, and foreigners could be kept for life, passed down as inherited property. How are we to make sense of all of this from our modern point of view?

Writer, mother, and lover of Scripture Glenna Marshall shows us that to love God with our hearts, we must first love him with our minds. Through Scripture memorization, we begin to meditate on God’s word. This causes us to think deeply about God, which leads to intimacy and trust. Scripture memory bolsters our daily faith, grows us in discernment, and gives us courage to walk through trials. It arms us with what we need to share the gospel, to fight sin, and to encourage our brothers and sisters in Christ!

This two-volume work is not written to persuade Jews to convert to Christianity. It is written to persuade Christians of the inevitability and desirability of that conversion. It is written to persuade Catholics to pray properly for it. If we do, then in God’s time the conversion will happen, followed soon after by the awesome return of our lord Jesus Christ on clouds of glory. If we do not pray properly for the conversion of the Jews then we will have hell on earth until we do.
