BroadStreet Publishing The Passion Translation Genesis 2020 Edition
Book SynopsisThe Book of Genesis is God's autobiography and the foundation upon which all revelation rests. The purpose of this book is to give the origin of all things, including the cosmic order of the universe and the covenant relationship between God and his people. Speaking the Word from his eternal dwelling place of light, God fashioned everything from nothing, perfectly displaying his awesome wonder. We will never be able to take the mystery out of Creation, for a God who is incomprehensible in his greatness accomplished it. One of the over-arching themes of Genesis is God's blessing. His highest order is not the earth or the cosmos, it is man and woman, made after his kind, to be containers for his glory. Genesis showcases God's redemptive heart toward the world-a theme that can be traced throughout the rest of the Hebrew Scriptures. 'When God created the heavens and the earth, the earth was completely formless and empty, with nothing but darkness draped over the deep. God's Spi

Christian Focus Publications Ltd Teaching 1 Samuel: From Text to Message
Book SynopsisThe book of 1 Samuel is a blockbuster. One of the most well–known books of the Old Testaments, its gripping narrative is dominated by big characters. Andrew Reid helps preachers get a handle on the vital part it plays in the unfolding story of the Bible.Trade ReviewIt is so good to have the fruit of Andrew Reid’s study of 1 Samuel now applied to how to be preaching this Old Testament book. Here we have an experienced guide helping us study God’s Word carefully: there are no pre–packaged sermons (or Bible studies), but instead you will find yourself motivated to look again at the biblical text more carefully. I think the book is worth reading even for the ‘Listening to the Whole of Scripture’ sections in each chapter alone. -- Neil Watkinson (International Director, Proclamation Trust)This is an excellent book in a great series. It will foster preaching that is firmly grounded in the text, richly theological and viewing the book as an important part of Christian scripture. It is biblical theology at its best. Andrew does not try to read Christ into the book of 1 Samuel, but rather discerns the message of book and then shows how our understanding of this must be shaped by the coming of Christ. There are great insights here about why we should teach from these rich narratives. He builds on his earlier commentary and a lifetime of powerful preaching to provide a major resource for the church as it gathers around the word. It contains great practical help and advice aimed at both preachers and bible study leaders. This book is pure gold, making it a ‘must have’ if you want to teach others how to teach God’s truth from narrative. -- Lindsay Wilson (Senior Lecturer in Old Testament, Ridley College, Melbourne)The Scriptures urge us to delight in God’s words and meditate on them. In this book we see the wonderful results of such delight and such meditation over many years. Andrew Reid generously shares his insights into the text of 1 Samuel, enriched by biblical theology, and with practical advice for preachers and Bible study leaders. Not a word is wasted, and just the right amount in information is provided. A good book for personal Bible study, as well as for those who preach and teach. -- Peter Adam (Vicar Emeritus, St Jude's Church, Carlton, Victoria, Australia)… blends the fruit of serious academic study and countless gems of wisdom for expounding this important book. While not spoon–feeding his readers, Andrew provides much theological and practical assistance for the expositor and Bible study leader. Teaching 1 Samuel will make you want to do it. Indeed, anyone who reads Andrew’s book can have little excuse for making a mess of an exposition of 1 Samuel. -- Mike Raiter (Director of the Centre for Biblical Preaching & author of several books)I have benefitted significantly from Andrew Reid’s teaching and thinking on the books on Samuel for many years – what a rich provision for preachers and bible study leaders to have this comprehensive teaching guide! The format of this series suits Andrew’s approach down to the ground – he summarises the scholarship on the books with a beautifully delicate touch, moves smoothly into the vital task of breaking up the book, and backs that up with a wealth of exegetical insight, embedded seamlessly in insights for teaching. This will be an invaluable (and should be a compulsory!) companion for anyone teaching 1st Samuel…. and bring on 2nd Samuel! -- Gary Millar (Principal of Queensland Theological College, Brisbane)

Baker Publishing Group The Bible and the Priesthood – Priestly
Book SynopsisThis series on the seven Sacraments provides readers with a deeper appreciation of God's gifts and call in the Sacraments through a renewed encounter with God's Word.

Baker Publishing Group Gift and Giver – The Holy Spirit for Today
Book SynopsisIn Gift and Giver, leading New Testament scholar Craig Keener takes a probing look at the various evangelical understandings of the role of the Holy Spirit in the church. He explores topics such as spiritual gifts, the fruit of the Spirit, the Spirit's power for evangelism, and hearing God's voice. His desire is for Christians to "work for consensus, or at least for unity in God's work despite our differences on secondary matters." Employing a helpful narrative approach and an ample number of stories, Keener enters into constructive dialogue with Pentecostals, moderates, and cessationists, all the while attempting to learn from each viewpoint. He seeks to bridge the gap between cessationists and Pentecostals/charismatics by urging all Christians to seek the Holy Spirit's empowerment. His irenic approach to this controversial issue has been endorsed by charismatics and non-charismatics alike. Sure to provoke helpful dialogue on a topic that has caused unfortunate divisions within the church, Gift and Giver will be a valuable addition to college and seminary courses on pneumatology. It will also be helpful to lay readers interested in a balanced discussion of spiritual gifts. This repackaged edition includes an updated preface and a substantive new afterword.Table of ContentsContentsIntroduction1. Recognizing the Spirit's Voice2.

Faithlife Corporation Mapping Divine and Human Agency
Book SynopsisWhen interpreting Scripture, do we take an academic or a spiritual approach? Do we emphasize the human or the divine agency? Do we focus on man's authorship or God's inspiration?Mark Bowald argues that these are false dichotomies. We need to understand both the human qualities of Scripture and the divine, as an overemphasis on either will lead to distortions. In Rendering the Word in Theological Hermeneutics, Bowald surveys various schools of thought, explaining where they lose the balance between the two. He analyzes the hermeneutical methods of George Lindbeck, Hans Frei, Kevin Vanhoozer, Francis Watson, Stephen Fowl, David Kelsey, Werner Jeanrond, Karl Barth, James K. A. Smith, and Nicholas Wolterstorff.Bowald shows that we should view Scripture as equally human and divine in origin and character. And our reading of Scripture should involve both critical rigor and openness to the leading of God's Spirit.Trade ReviewRendering the Word is one of the most astute treatments of scriptural hermeneutics in recent years. It is a work of considerable theological perception, most of all in its clear-minded and penetrating analysis of the place and significance of divine agency in the interpretation of Scripture.--John Webster, professor of divinity at the University of St Andrews, Scotland. Author of Confronted by Grace"Theological hermeneutics has no more avid cartographer than Mark Bowald. Readers who are still wondering what theological interpretation of Scripture is would do well to orient themselves to the discussion by consulting Bowald's charts. Bowald does more than map out this strange new continent, however; he makes a constructive dogmatic claim about the role of divine agency. This is intelligent theological mapmaking, a book to take up and read to find one's way through the issue of God's presence and activity in biblical interpretation."--Kevin J. Vanhoozer, Research professor of systematic theology, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

Baker Publishing Group Jesus the Great Philosopher – Rediscovering the
Book SynopsisMany of us tend to live as though Jesus represents the "spiritual part" of our lives. We don't clearly see how he relates to the rest of our experiences, desires, and habits. How can Jesus, the Bible, and Christianity become more than a compartmentalized part of our lives? Highly regarded New Testament scholar and popular teacher Jonathan Pennington argues that we need to recover the lost biblical image of Jesus as the one true philosopher who teaches us how to experience the fullness of our humanity in the kingdom of God. Jesus teaches us what is good, right, and beautiful and offers answers to life's big questions: what it means to be human, how to be happy, how to order our emotions, and how we should conduct our relationships. This book brings Jesus and Christianity into dialogue with the ancient philosophers who asked the same big questions about finding meaningful happiness. It helps us rediscover biblical Christianity as a whole-life philosophy, one that addresses our greatest human questions and helps us live meaningful and flourishing lives.Table of ContentsContentsYour Personal Lord and PhilosopherPhilosophers, Martyrs, and Canoes The Genius of Ancient PhilosophyThe Bible as Philosophy?The Philosophical "Big Ideas" in the Old TestamentThe Philosophical "Big Ideas" in the New TestamentEducating EmotionsA Big Emotional DebateChristianity's Sophisticated SolutionRestoring RelationshipsThe Necessity of RelationshipsChristianity's Renewed RelationshipsBeing Human and HappyHumans, We Have a ProblemChristianity's Whole, Meaningful, and Flourishing Life
