“All who heard it were amazed …” (Luke 2:18).
Attention to the cultural world of the Bible illuminates these weekly Lectio Divina exercises. Kevin Saunders’s guided reflections help us to hear afresh the attractive, surprising, and even shocking claims of Jesus. Perplexing or too-familiar Gospel stories about the actions, teachings, and claims of Jesus will come to life and spur us to amazement-and more importantly, to grateful reflection as we grow in faith and learn to apply God’s Word to our own lives and our own times.
Each of the three volumes begins with the First Sunday of Advent and concludes with the Solemnity of Christ the King. The titles echo Jesus’s words in the opening Gospel for each year:

Problem Of Pain

Render Unto Caesar
$28.99Add to cartThe revered Bible scholar and author of The Historical Jesus explores the Christian culture wars–the debates over church and state–from a biblical perspective, exploring the earliest tensions evident in the New Testament, and offering a way forward for Christians today.
Leading Bible scholar John Dominic Crossan, the author of the pioneering work The Historical Jesus, provides new insight into the Christian culture wars which began in the New Testament and persist strongly today.
For decades, Americans have been divided on how Christians should relate to government and lawmakers, a dispute that has impacted every area of society and grown more rancorous over the past forty years. But as Crossan makes clear, this debate isn’t new; it can be found in the New Testament itself, most notably in the tensions between Luke-Acts and Revelations.
In the texts of Luke-Acts, Rome is considered favorably. In the book of Revelations, Rome is seen as the embodiment of evil in the world. Yet there is an alternative to these two extremes, Crossan explains. The historical Jesus and Paul, the earliest Christian teachers, were both strongly opposed to Rome, yet neither demonized the Empire.
Crossan sees in Jesus and Paul’s approach a model for Christians today that can be used to cut through the acrimony and polarization roiling our society and dividing us.
