Mary : The Imagination Of Her Heart
$14.95Christians from liturgical traditions like Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy have long venerated Jesus’ mother Mary as a miraculous intercessor, icon of holy life and God’s closest human relative. Believers from Protestant denominations, on the other hand, have attempted to appreciate Mary within the boundaries of what is known about her from the New Testament, seeing her as worthy of respect but not devotion. In this study of Mary as prophet, matriarch, theologian, disciple, intercessor and paradigm, Duckworth, an Episcopal priest and poet, encourages readers to approach her from the classic Anglican perspective of the middle way, which “allows us to understand Mary as a model, a pattern, a paradigm and, as such, a soul friend as we proceed toward the perfection that is Christ.” It may be jarring for more conservative readers to discover that Duckworth views the Gospels not as historical documents, but as witnesses of faith anchored in the “truth” of myth and folklore. On the other hand, her evident affection for the subject and her even-handed approach to some of the more controversial aspects of Marian devotion will appeal to those seeking a well-rounded portrait of one of the major figures in Christian history and worship. Each meditation is enriched by personal anecdotes, Duckworth’s poetry and her multicultural perspective on art history, folklore and Marian tradition.

Nineveh Or Bust
$16.86Resistantly Following God’s Calling. God never calls us to something that takes little effort, is low risk, or will not have insignificant impact! So following God takes hard work and great faith but always leads to eternity advancement! Nineveh or Bust examines the life of the prophet Jonah and what happened once he received God’s call to minister to the heathen Assyrians in Nineveh. As we will see, Jonah did not respond positively; in fact, he resisted God’s calling-just as we do! This book examines Jonah’s autobiography, including his rebellion, his experience in the belly of the large fish, his ministry in Nineveh, and his reaction after 120,000 repented and turned to God. The author provides convincing evidence to arguments that have caused some to doubt the veracity of Jonah’s encounters at sea! Finally, you will see God’s grace and compassion on a godless people as an entire city repented. In contrast, you will see how unloving and merciless Jonah was as he complained about the Assyrians’ redemption. You will be surprised by God’s response to his enlisted servant!

Paul : A Jew On The Margins
$28.00Paul’s messianism put him at the margins of Pharisaism, his preaching placed him in tension with the Synagogue, and his Gospel set him on the outer border of Hellenistic religion. This book explores the tensions and creativity that Paul’s marginality let loose. In six short chapters, Roetzel explains Paul’s complex relationship to first century Judaism and elements of the early church. In so doing, he tackles a great many of the most disputed areas of Pauline theology: How can we speak of Paul as a convert? How far did Paul accept the apocalyptic myth? What are we to make of Paul’s theology of weakness? How far did Paul embrace pluralism? And how could Paul preach that Gentiles shared in God’s election without excluding Jews?

Isaiah 2 : Prophet Of Deliverance And Messianic Hope (Student/Study Guide)
$14.99Lessons 11-21
Additional Info
Many of Isaiah’s writings have been called “the fifth Gospel.” The New Testament contains no fewer than 66 direct quotes from Isaiah, and 20 of the New Testament books include his timeless words. In Jesus’ first formal appearance in His hometown synagogue at Nazareth, He captivated the speechless congregation by reading from Isaiah.But it was more than the mere reading, of course. Jesus claimed that the words He read from Isaiah were literally being fulfilled in Him, the Messiah. Indeed, the Book of Isaiah is replete with predictions of both the first and second comings of Christ. And it was Isaiah who made clear (in chapter 53) that the Messiah would be a largely rejected suffering Servant, shattering the time-honored hopes of Israel that His primary function would be to rescue His people from their political oppressors. But the glorious news the prophet proclaimed was that this Servant’s stripes and shed blood would provide healing and atonement for our sin.
Through his proclamations of the gravity of sin, the righteous requirements of a holy God, and the sure hope of the coming Messiah, Isaiah provides a message of incredible hope for people of all ages.
This second part of Wisdom of the Word’s study on Isaiah examines chapters 40 through 66 of this inimitable book.

It was he who uttered those timeless five words that have challenged Christians throughout the centuries to yield themselves to God unreservedly: “Here am I. Send Me!” (6:8). It was he who shared God’s incredible invitation that has rung through the ages: “Come now, let us reason together…Through your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool” (1:18).
Though obviously grieved by his countrymen’s departure from the God who loved them so much, Isaiah never gave up expressing the ache of the Creator’s heart for His people to return to them, to allow them to experience His love in all its fullness.
This intriguing 10-week study explores fascinating insights into the first 39 chapters of this landmark Old Testament book and challenged all believers top take a closer look at the Heavenly Father who pursues them with a relentless love that won’t satisfied until they come home.

Mary Called Magdalene
$30.00Was Mary Magdalene a prostitute, a female divinity figure, a church leader, or all of those? Biblical references to her are tantalizingly brief, but we do know that she was the first person to whom the risen Christ appeared-and the one commissioned to tell others the good news, earning her the ancient honorific, “Apostle to the Apostles.” Today, Mary continues to spark controversy, curiosity, and veneration. In a vivid re-creation of Mary Magdalene’s life story, Margaret George convincingly captures this renowned woman’s voice as she moves from girlhood to womanhood, becomes part of the circle of disciples, and comes to grips with the divine. Grounded in biblical scholarship and secular research, this fascinating historical novel is also, ultimately, “the diary of a soul.”

Possessing The Land (Student/Study Guide)
$16.86What do the names Jericho, Gilgal, Ai, or Gibeon have to do with our lives in this modern age? Wasn’t “crossing the Jordan” just an act of an ancient people who were intent on establishing their God-given claim to the Promised Land? What possible value could come of investigating the treachery of the Gibeonites – and who were they, anyway? These and similar questions are what this book seeks to answer. Possessing the Land is an investigative study of the Old Testament book of Joshua. It began as a simple home Bible study, but as I studied, it became apparent that God was setting out a battle plan not only for His original chosen people, but also for every modern pilgrim and sojourner in Christ. This book examines the experiences of the original people of God as they went about taking possession of the land that God had promised them, and attempts to draw parallels between their journey in a physical sense and ours in the spiritual realm. Numerous references are made to the real-life battles that face every Christian, not only in the variety of circumstances, but also in the strategy needed to be victorious over those circumstances. We desire to be able to join God’s chosen people in their victories, learn from their defeats, and ultimately, like them, to enter into the fullness of all that God has prepared for us.

Nehemiah : Man Of Radical Obedience (Student/Study Guide)
$14.9910 Lesson Bible Study
Additional Info
A great job, wonderful friends, financial security. What if God asked you to leave it all behind today – to forsake everything familiar and comfortable? To give it all up to go to a neglected, third-rate portion of the world and to rebuild a city you’ve never seen?Sound unlikely? This is precisely a portrait of Nehemiah, cupbearer to the king of Persia. After hearing that a plan to rebuild Jerusalem’s ruined city wall had tragically failed, Nehemiah’s heart was broken. Yet, he wasn’t satisfied simply to lament the incident from his sheltered life in Persia. Hearing God’s call for him to go back to his homeland and see the wall restored completely, he responded in radical obedience, forsaking everything to follow God’s instructions.
In this captivating 10-week study of an often-overlooked Old Testament book, the authors link Nehemiah’s obedience with its practical implications for believers today. As Nehemiah faced great opposition and numerous setbacks, he and the Israelites learned how to totally abandon themselves to God’s will and way for their lives. Each lesson offers valuable observations to help deepen faith, inspire hope, and strengthen the resolve to follow God’s leading at all costs.

The tribe, the family, the state, and the assembly, each has a different agenda and thus draws a very different portrait of the one who helps define them and is defined by them.

Moral decay, hedonistic lifestyle, political controversy. Characteristics from contemporary culture? For the Hebrew people exiled to Babylon in 539 BC, those words typified the lifestyle to shich they had become accustomed.Imagine being away from your homeland so long that the strange landscape, foreign people, and pagan customs are now familiar and comfortable – and the land of your birth seems nothing more than a distant dream.

No Shame : A Study Of Six New Testament Women (Student/Study Guide)

Despite the odds against them and their humble backgrounds, these women were not ashamed to repeat an unanswered prayer or rise to God’s call. A great study with excellent documentation, this book is perfect for women’s groups and adult Sunday school classes, as well as for personal reading and devotion.

This thought-provoking, scripturally sound read takes a fresh look at Jesus’ face-to-face encounters with women when He walked this earth, asking, “What can their experiences tell us today about walking and talking with God? Do they know secrets to getting more up close and personal with Him?” In an accurate, yet warm and relational style, Banks reveals what still causes tears to trickle down God’s cheeks, moves His heart to compassion, prompts Him to defend and forgive, and makes Him feel loved and enjoyed-inspiring deeper intimacy with God today.
