17. The Rest Of The Story: Peter’s LegacyAdditional Info
Who was Peter and what was his true stature in the early church? For Protestants at least, Peter seems caught between two caricatures: the rustic fisherman of Galilee and the author of two lesser New Testament letters. And in both cases he is overshadowed by Paul. Yet Peter plays a significant role in the Gospels and is an apostolic leader in Acts. And those who study his letters find them filled with theological insight. In The Life and Witness of Peter Larry Helyer seeks to reinstate this neglected and underestimated apostle to his rightful stature as an early Christian leader and faithful witness to Christ. Arguing for a more confident assessment of the apostle’s presence and contribution to the New Testament, Helyer pulls Peter out from the long shadow of Paul. What we find is a Peter whose firsthand witness stands behind much of Mark’s Gospel, a Peter whose striking portrait in Acts can be trusted as reliable, and a Peter whose letters glow with spiritual and theological intelligence. Along the way we are rewarded with a careful analysis of prominent theological themes in Peter’s letters. And we learn much about the traditions, legends and legacy of Peter in the post-apostolic era.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Fearless Daughters Of The Bible (Reprinted)
$17.64Christian women are often led to believe they are God’s afterthoughts–as if they were created inferior to men or destined by God to play a secondary role in life. Not so, says bestselling author J. Lee Grady, father of four daughters and a leading international voice confronting the abuse of women. He counters that the Bible’s message is neither sexist nor patronizing.
Through sharing the lives of mold-breaking biblical women, Grady shows how God enables his daughters to do amazing, even impossible things. He also reveals the empowering, yet often-overlooked, gifts God longs to give each of his daughters–gifts like wisdom, fruitfulness, leadership, family, and boldness. When women learn to receive each of these, and more, as a divine inheritance, they will live the fearless and beautiful lives of purpose God desires for them.

Leading The Way Through Daniel
$19.98Daniel lived as an exile in a hostile country, yet when he committed himself in faith to serve his limitless God, he achieved the impossible. How did Daniel maintain his bold witness for God in spite of bullying and intimidation? How did he prepare himself for the tests and temptations of life?
Like Daniel, believers today live in a culture that is hostile to biblical values. It takes great courage and faith to live as followers of Christ in a post-Christian world characterized by moral depravity, injustice, idolatry, and more. In Leading the Way through Daniel, Michael Youssef passionately shows readers that the resources Daniel relied on are equally available to them. Sound teaching, vibrant illustrations, a brisk conversational style, and a discussion guide will enable readers to take the truths of the book of Daniel and apply them to the pressures, trials, and temptations they face in today’s culture.

Paul
$35.00Lucas Grollenberg, a Dutch Dominican, is already known to English readers as the author of one of the best illustrated atlases of the Bible. In this short book he provides one of the most engaging and non-technical introductions to the often difficult thought and work of St Paul. The book arose out of a series of meetings with a group of lay people. Its style is informal and there are no disconcerting details to clpe with which presuppose a certain level of knowledge. At the same time, however, the book reflects the best modern critical scholarship and does not gloss over the diffi- culties which Paul presents to twentieth-century readers. Fr Grollenberg draws on three sources for his account: the letters of Paul, Acts, and the knowledge that has come down to us from the ancient world. To this he can add his own first-hand knowledge of the territories involved, gained not least from travels in an old Volkswagen over the routes covered by Paul. The result is a vivid and even controversial picture of the apostle. Was Paul married? ‘No doubt about it’, says the author, and to those who might raise their eyebrows gives utterly convincing reasons for such judgment. Perhaps his activities led in due course to a marital separation. If only we had her story. . . .

King Solomon : The Temptations Of Money Sex And Power
$25.00A study of the life of Solomon-from his triumphs to his tragic failures-that teaches readers how to live wisely.Though the world’s wisest king, Solomon’s heart was led astray by temptations of wealth, sex, and power. And we face the same dangers today, though the temptations may be different in degree and detail. Author Philip Ryken writes, “In witnessing Solomon’s moral triumphs and sinful failures we learn how to live more wisely. By the grace of God, we may avoid a tragic downfall of our own and learn how to use money, sex, and power for the glory of God.
“Tracing Solomon’s life from coronation to burial-and from godly devotion to self-serving excess-Ryken shows readers how to avoid similar downfalls and seek God’s glory amid earthly temptations. These thirteen chapters are pastoral, rich in application, and biblically faithful. This overview of Solomon’s life also includes a study guide, making it a great resource for both personal and group use.

David Gods King
$19.98I have always loved the story of David’s life. It showed me that even one who was closest to God’s heart was not always perfect. So many people turn from God’s saving grace because they think they have to be perfect to come to Him. Our human nature prevents perfection. Only by staying close to Him and depending upon Him to help us not to sin and to forgive when we do, can we say as David did, “Wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.” I have written this book to show people of all ages that God accepts repentance from a sinner and forgives the sin as long as that one is truly sorry and has accepted His son, Jesus, as Savior. I grew up with a mother who was a staunch believer. I have always believed, but have been far from perfect. It is my desire that this book will help all who read it to know that there is indeed hope and that God loves us each and every one. I was raised in Missouri in a rural area, was Valedictorian of my class and was star forward for our basketball team. I attended Central Methodist College and learned it wasn’t easy to stay on top when there were hundreds in my class instead of my nine classmates in high school. I graduated from the University of Missouri with an AB in Music, a BS in Elementary Education and an MEd with a Superintendent’s Certificate. I taught for 13 years, then met my husband, Joe. We built a Real Estate Brokerage, a Construction Company and a Holding Company together. We have been retired for several years and enjoy traveling and gourmet cooking. Between us, we have nine wonderful children, twenty-two grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren.

In A Mirror Dimly
$22.48“They led me from our camp, and I turned once more to look at Abraham. What did I see in his eyes?… One thing I knew, I loved Abraham. Resigned, I turned toward my inevitable fate. The promise of Abraham’s God was not for me.”
Sarah“It was an irretrievable moment. We all knew it. Isaac and I had, in a sense lost both our sons… Esau and Jacob had lost a father and mother and brother … and something had gone out of my relationship with Isaac that could not be restored. How could the broken pieces of our lives ever be put back together?”
Rebekah“My father’s deception and my physical beauty were factors in my life before I was old enough to assimilate them… These two ingredients were a deadly concoction in my life. No doubt, beauty brought me many advantages … but I would learn that beauty could not give me everything I wanted.”
Rachel“In spite of the way Jacob treated me, I still loved him … I was willing to love, even if I was not loved in return. I asked myself why . . . that realization was the first whisper of a love that was not based on the worthiness of the one loved.”

Remember The Poor
$38.99Combining historical, exegetical, and theological interests, Bruce Longenecker here dispels the widespread notion that Paul had little or no concern for the poor.
Longnecker’s analysis of Greco-Roman poverty provides the backdrop for a compelling presentation of the importance of care for the poor within Paul’s theology and the Jesus-groups he had established. Along the way, Longenecker calls into question a variety of interpretive paradigms and offers a fresh vision in which Paul’s theological resources are shown to be both historically significant and theologically challenging.

Paul And Virtue Ethics
$110.00In Paul and Virtue Ethics, Daniel Harrington and James Keenan build upon their successful collaboration Jesus and Virtue Ethics to discuss the apostle Paul’s teachings as a guide to interpret theology and ethics today. Examining Paul’s writings, the authors investigate what they teach about the basic questions of virtue ethics: Who am I?; Who do I want to become?; And how do I get there? Their intent is not to provide stringent rules, but to awaken discovery and encourage dialogue.
The book first considers the concept of virtue ethics-an approach to ethics that emphasizes moral character-and Paul’s ethics in particular. Next, the authors focus on the virtues of faith, love/charity, and hope as treated by Paul and Thomas Aquinas. Closing the book with reflections on the roles of other virtues (and vices) in individual and communal Christian life, the authors discuss various issues in social ethics and sexual morality as they are dealt with in Paul and in Christian virtue ethics today.
Special features:
* highlights the practical relevance of Scripture today
* a unique collaboration between a biblical scholar and a moral theologian
* an accessible introduction and fresh approach to Pauline studies
* an engaging and unique approach to virtue ethics

Paul The Apostle Of Jesus Christ
$56.25One hundred and sixty years ago F. C. Baur posed, in inescapably sharp form, a question which has haunted Christianity throughout its history: is Christianity simply a form of Judaism, a development from Judaism, or was it, as Baur argued, from the beginning something quite distinct, a religious spirit or consciousness which could not be or become itself until it broke through the limits and restrictions of its historical origins? Baur’s radical answer set the agenda for the rest of the nineteenth century, and though neglected for most of the twentieth century, the question has reemerged with renewed force in a post-Holocaust world.

Imperfect Believers : Ambiguous Characters In The Gospel Of John
$40.00This book is a solid study of characters in the Gospel of John-Nicodemus, the Samaritan woman, the disciples, the Jews, Martha and Mary, Peter and the Beloved Disciple, and Jesus. Hylen argues that John’s characters are not simply one dimensional depictions of belief and unbelief, but are in fact far more complex and ambiguous. This ambiguity has an important literary function: it invites the reader to understand biblical characters within the context of the inherent logic of the Gospel. The Gospel establishes ideals like believing and abiding in Jesus. The reader is left to decide to what extent a character’s actions and speech reflect these aims. Individual character portraits explore what readers may learn from studying John’s complex characters.
