Dr. Daniels also relates how Owen taught that believers can have personal communion with Christ.

Beyond The Passion
$40.00For most Christian believers, what is truly remarkable and important about Jesus is not his life, but his resurrection from the dead. They may believe that Jesus’ death is significant not as the end of Jesus’ life, but as the first half of the saving event that comprises the Christian gospel: the death and resurrection of Jesus. For Christians, this great divine cosmic event, around which all of human history pivots, is what saves us from our sins. Apart from this, the death of Jesus would simply be the meaningless end to an interesting but insignificant life. In this lively and provocative work, Patterson reconstructs early Christian assessments of Jesus’ significance and also questions basic assumptions about modern interpretations of Jesus’ death. He emphasizes the importance of Jesus’ life in relation to his death and resurrection. And he challenges individualistic notions of how Jesus’ death relates to Christian ethics.

Only Jesus Of Nazareth Can Be Isreals King Messiah
$19.98Only Jesus of Nazareth Can Be Israel’s King Messiah, the third in the King Messiah Series, proves beyond doubt according to biblical prophecy that only Jesus of Nazareth can be Israel’s King Messiah. Using his skills as a retired federal investigator, plus spending thousands of hours studying the Bible and debating, John McTernan uses Daniel 9, the Davidic covenant, and the genealogy of the kings of Judah to form an airtight case proving only the Lord Jesus is Israel’s King Messiah. The author provides a unique way to look at Daniel 9 to pinpoint the exact time of King Messiah’s first coming. He shows that the Davidic covenant reveals that King Messiah has to be the Son of God. And finally, he shows that the genealogy of the kings of Judah possesses overwhelming evidence that only Jesus of Nazareth by His virgin birth can be the Messiah. This book is a great witnessing tool.

Behold The Man
$17.99The truthful Man . . . falsely accused. The innocent Man . . . illegally tried and wrongly convicted. The gentle Man . . . who suffered punishment few could imagine, much less endure. The murdered Man . . . who forgave His own merciless killers. The divine Man . . . who died as a common criminal. The willing Man . . . who gave His life for others. The ordinary Man . . . who was, in fact, the extraordinary Son of God.
Behold . . . the Man. And ask yourself the only question that really matters: Why? Why would this innocent Man walk willingly and with unwavering determination toward such a grisly end? Why would He ever accept such undeserved mistreatment?
In this incredible, historically accurate account, you will come face to face with Jesus-the Man of Sorrows. If you’re honest, you’ll find the amazing answer to why . . . and you’ll change. When you stop long enough to look, to think, to imagine, and to truly Behold the Man, you’ll never be the same again.
Chuck Swindoll leads us through a detailed examination of the events surrounding Jesus as he follows the winding pathway of his passion to the cross. This story-based investigation of the last week of Jesus’s life-from the Last Supper to his death-focuses on “Why?” And in his Epilogue to this powerful, insightful book, Swindoll clearly explains to the unchurched and non-Christian reader why Jesus was willing to walk this sacrificial path to die-he did it for them.
Releasing simultaneously with Mel Gibson’s stirring movie The Passion of The Christ, Swindoll’s book provides Christians an excellent evangelistic follow-up tool to give to their unchurched or non-Christian friends and families who see the film. As Chuck said after a private viewing of the movie, “You’ll never be the same again.” And Behold . . . the Man will help ensure that fact.

Jesus Now And Then
$21.50Jesus Now and Then engagingly traces the changing images of Jesus in scholarship and popular culture from the time of the early church to the present day. Who did Jesus think he was? Did the early church take a man and make him into God? Was Christianity actually invented by Paul? How has Jesus been treated in the centuries since? What contemporary views are compatible with a traditional understanding of Scripture?
Richard Burridge and Graham Gould leave no stone unturned in detailing Jesus’ life and legacy. They start with the evidence about Jesus found in the New Testament and then go on to explore the early-church debates as a way of tackling contemporary issues. They also discuss how the figure of Jesus has been portrayed through history, how his teachings have been understood, and how he has come to be worshiped by Christians around the world. This essential historical information sets current questions and controversies about Jesus into context and helps to explain the many different views and interpretations of him now on offer.

Lost Message Of Jesus
$18.99“History became legend. Legend became myth. Much was lost. None lived who could remember,” wrote JRR Tolkien. Or to put it a little differently, in the words of Dallas Willard, “Presumed familiarity of Jesus and his message has led to unfamiliarity, unfamiliarity has led to contempt and contempt has led to profound ignorance.” Have we remade Jesus in our own image and then wondered why our spirituality is less than life changing and exciting? The real Jesus is deeply challenging, something which cannot be said for the stain-glass window figure of so much Christian imagery whether Catholic, or Protestant, Orthodox or Evangelical. The Lost Message of Jesus is written to stir thoughtful debate, to pose fresh questions, perhaps even to shed a little new light and help create a deeper understanding of Jesus and his message. Some Christians might wonder if there is anything new to say about Jesus, and even if the attempt to do so is some kind of denial of the Church’s traditional teaching and the authority of the Bible. However, each new generation must grapple with the question of who Jesus is, not because we disregard Scripture, but precisely because we take it so seriously and believe that only through a constant study of Jesus can we discover God himself.

What Jesus Did
$26.18The acronym WWJD (What would Jesus do?) has become a popular device for making ethical and moral decisions, and evaluating how we should act in a wide range of situations. But this seemingly ubiquitous slogan has also been used to trivialize Jesus and use his name to endorse some activity or product. Now we also hear questions like: What would Jesus eat? What would Jesus wear? What would Jesus drive? Enough already!
If you want to consider this question seriously, then the best way to find the answer to WWJD is to investigate what Jesus actually did while he was here on earth. Jesus Christ was a real man who lived in a real time and a real place — and his words and deeds are recorded in the four Gospels. Once we carefully study the Gospels and become familiar with what Jesus did, then we will be in a better position to discern what Jesus would do now.
What Jesus Did is an in-depth look at the life of Jesus, including his birth, his parables, his miracles, his sayings, his death, and his resurrection. The unique format of this study guide makes it an excellent resource for a preaching series, Sunday School lessons, group Bible study, or personal devotional reading. Each chapter is built around a series of questions to help you gain deeper meaning and insight from the scriptures. And because Jesus expects us to turn learning into doing and live according to his example, each chapter also includes a WWJD action step for applying his teachings in our daily lives.

God With Us
$22.48God with Us: A Walk Through the Gospels is a creative devotional that is a journey with Jesus across the pages of the Gospel. Through Margaret Montreuil’s contemplative stories, meditations, and reflective questions, you will experience the wonder and meaning of Christ’s coming to earth and of his coming now to you. You will share the “eyewitness” accounts of those who looked into his eyes, heard his provocative and grace-filled words, and beheld his love in action. This book is an invitation to “come and see Jesus,” and to personally experience the wonder of his life and love. This devotional is one of a two-book set. The novel, God in Sandals: When Jesus Walked Among Us, is an inspired, passionate story of the life of Jesus during that unique and holy time when he lived as one of us. “This is a devotional that is truly focused on devotion, not just on intellectual exercises. Margaret’s passionate relationship with her Lord oozes through every sentence, inviting the reader to come, sit at the feet of the Lord as Mary did in Bethany. Based on her novel, God in Sandals: When Jesus Walked Among Us-a must read for all who would love to have an up-close-and-personal experience of Jesus-the devotional leads the seeking soul into the awesome but welcoming presence of God, the One to whom all devotion belongs.” Jan Harris, former editor of Union Life print edition; author of Quiet in His Presence “God with Us strips away the religious language and Christian jargon, so we can see Jesus for who He really is, not as a modern day Christian endorsing American evangelicalism. We meet Him as God in flesh, walking among us. This is a powerful portrayal of the man Jesus who is God eternal.” Floyd McClung, senior pastor of Metro Christian Fellowship and president of All Nations Training Center; author of Basic Discipleship and The Father Heart of God www.authormargaretmontreuil.com

God In Sandals
$31.23God in Sandals: When Jesus Walked Among Us is an inspirational novel about the most famous and influential person in history. Because Jesus called himself “the Son of Man,” and “the Son of God,” people couldn’t help but wonder what he meant. In fact, people still wonder about him today.
This story plunges headlong into that amazing mystery of who Jesus was and is. What did God incarnate experience and feel when he became one of us? Why did people so strongly love or hate him? And why do people still seek to know him today?
This is not a typical novel. It is an intimate biography that reads much like a devotional book of meditations but in the style of creative storytelling. While delving into the nature and wonder of the human side of Jesus, God in Sandals brings its readers on an imaginative journey through the biblical narratives of his life. By sharing in the experiences of those who knew him, we, too, can see and hear him and better understand the meaning of his coming.

Christ On Trial
$19.99The trial, conviction, and death of an innocent man 2,000 years ago have particular resonance today. Atrocities from around the world shake us nearly every day, and we all experience trials in our own lives too. In this book the new Archbishop of Canterbury looks in depth at the trial of Jesus, using it to teach readers how to face the challenges of life in today’s trying times.
Bringing the biblical accounts of Jesus’ trial vividly to life, Rowan Williams highlights what can be learned about Jesus from each of the four Gospel portraits. Mark shows a mysterious figure revealed as the Son of God. Matthew describes the Wisdom of God tried by foolish men. Luke presents a divine stranger. John speaks of the paradox of divinity submitting to judgement. These illuminating discussions are followed by a reflection on Christian martyrdom and a meditation on tyranny, freedom, and truth. A set of discussion questions and a thought-provoking prayer after each chapter make “Christ on Trial” an ideal book for study groups.
Throughout the book Williams draws not only from the Bible but also from fiction, drama, and current events, pointing up ways in which society today continues to put Christ on trial. Even more, he argues that all Christians stand with Jesus before a watching world. Though we may not be directly confronted with death, we are nevertheless called daily to respond to the falsehood of such lures as power, influence, and prestige.
Several words aptly describe this book by Rowan Williams: Profound. Incisive. Literary. Contemporary. Relevant. Prophetic. “Christ on Trial” will move and change those who read it.

1st Christian : Universal Truth In The Teachings Of Jesus
$19.99In his new book Paul Zahl seeks a broader understanding of the life and teachings of Jesus. What was it within his message that burst his first-century Jewish context? What was creative, fresh, and universal about his message? What did Jesus maintain, within his own setting and period, that is still true and applicable today? In pursuit of these questions Zahl swims against the current of modern scholarship, arguing that Jesus was more “Christian” than “Jewish.” Jesus’ teaching concerning the kingdom of God is replete with Christian perspectives on personhood and salvation, and his insights into original sin and grace are closer to core Christianity than much recent literature acknowledges. A pleasure to read, The First Christian makes a significant new contribution to today’s quest for the historical Jesus.

Gods Beloved : Jesus Experience Of The Transcendent
$17.43The issue of Jesus’ self-consciousness remains at the forefront of New Testament studies. In this book, Bernard Cooke exhibits courage and tenacity as he reconstructs, with full acceptance of historical criticism, the religious self-consciousness of Jesus and Jesus’ awareness of the divine.
Cooke focuses on the term “Abba” as descriptive of Jesus’ relationship to the divine, considering it within the context of the Jewishness of Jesus’ experience, Jesus’ masculinity. Jesus’ consciousness of being “eschatological prophet,” and Jesus’ awareness of healing by the power of God’s Spirit. A concluding chapter deals with the question of what can reliably be said about the religious experience of Jesus.

Lords Life On Earth
$31.23I have not revealed my name as the author of this book, because I’m only as a pencil in the hand of God. My wisdom and efforts wouldn’t have been correct. Many times I would have and did go with different events. God would wake me from a deep sleep and show me the right way, and I would have to go back and correct it. I am not an author or a writer, so there are probably mistakes in punctuation and spelling. To be truthful, I wouldn’t have taken on this task if God hadn’t kept dealing with me, for it has taken three years of my life. Not that it would have taken three years, but my abilities made it necessary. My qualification for doing this is studying God’s Word. I’ve also come from three generations of ministers, and my husband and son are ministers. This is God’s Word put in the correct order of events. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John have been combined at once, instead of comparing them. In this you can know the truth.

Edward Irvings Incarnational Christology
$32.48Could Jesus Christ have taken human nature in its fallen state, like ours, yet lived His life in absolute sinlessness? Nineteenth century Scottish pastor Edward Irving lost his standing as an ordained Christian minister for communicating this truth. This precise Christological issue had never been debated officially in Christian history until Irving’s time, yet he insisted that his teaching was not novel.He merely was restating the traditional doctrines of the ancient Church Fathers and Protestant Reformers. This volume brings to light the intriguing story of Irving’s struggle to keep alive the true doctrine of Christ’s fallen yet sinless humanity in an age of theological darkness.

Perfected Self : A Study In Self From The Gospel Of Luke
$18.73In our noble efforts to become more Christ-like, we Christians spend an inordinate amount of time, energy, and resources just trying to be good for Jesus! In the process, we tend to reduce our Christianity into an ongoing, labor-intensive work of sin management. The Church seems to exasperate the problem by promoting a wellintentioned but poorly planned smear campaign against sin with a “Just Say No” theme. As a result, our public service announcements use a heavyhanded smorgasbord of Scriptures that scream “die to self-you sinner!” The end result? We bring more frustration to Christians and non-Christians alike without offering people many practical options of escape. Folks, something has to change! How much simpler could our Christian life be if we began focusing on the root of the sin problem? Just think how effective we might become if we began encouraging folks to a better understanding of the major temptations surrounding the issues of self. So it is in the life and ministry of Jesus as recorded in the Gospel of Luke. As the chosen representative of God’s perfect plan of redemption, Jesus of Nazareth comes to teach and model for us a fully reproducible, Kingdombased lifestyle of self-control: The Perfected Self.

Portrait : Jesus Christ In The Book Of Revelation
$23.73Paul Mellow was born to missionary parents in China and completed high school there. After graduating from Prairie Bible Institute in Canada, he pastored independent Bible Churches in the Midwest and Southwest. For the past 35 years he has made it a habit to read Revelation 4 and 5 every Sunday morning to focus his mind on the grandeur of the Lord Jesus Christ. This led to a thorough study of Revelation, and to the writing of Portrait. He found a wide-spread belief in the church that Revelation is difficult or impossible to understand, in spite of the fact that God called it “The Revelation.” He also found that people thought the book consisted of dark predictions about a terrible future, although God called it, “The Revelation of Jesus Christ.” Worse still, he found that many Christians tend to ignore Revelation, even though it is the only book in the Bible with a specific promise of special blessing to readers (Rev; 1:3). Mellow sees the book as John’s magnificent portrait of Jesus Christ in his various roles. First John identified Jesus as identical with Jehovah in the Old Testament (Rev; I), then as the Lord of the Church (Rev; 2-3), The King of Heaven (Rev; 4-5), The Judge (Rev; 6-20), The Good Shepherd (Rev; 7), Creator of the New Heaven and New Earth (Rev; 21), and finally; the Bridegroom (Rev; 21-22). The terrible events on Planet Earth form the dark background against which the artist paints his brilliant portrait of the Lord Jesus Christ whom he loved so well. Paul and Bernadine Mellow live in Carlsbad, NM. Their two daughters live in Friendswood, a suburb of Houston TX.

Father Jesus Christ And Holy Spirit
$16.86I give God the glory for what He has inspired in me. Without Him, I could not have done this. One day I decided to do a study on the names and attributes of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. I started off doing this for my personal use. As I searched for the names and attributes, more began to be revealed. I was in awe as I saw what the Holy Spirit brought through my study. When I was finished, I realized I had enough to have a book published. The Holy Spirit would often wake me up in the middle of the night to give me the names of God. I believe God has a plan for many to read this book and to search for the names of God as I have with great joy. Most of the information I searched for came from the King James Bible, Nathan Stone, outlines from Marilyn Hickey, teachings from Benny Hinn, the Amplified Bible, the American Standard Bible, and the New International Version Bible. May God bless you as you read this book.

At Table With Jesus (Student/Study Guide)
$10.99Jesus used food and mealtimes to build (or destroy) community and to teach about the Father, Son, and Kingdom.

This book deals with the concepts of miracle meals, Eucharist, hospitality, etiquette, clean and unclean, and others. This 8-session study will help participants see how the simple act of eating became a crucial element in Jesus’ ministry, and they will learn to appreciate the Eucharistic quality of daily life and the practice of hospitality.

Many Faces Of Christology
$45.99This book surveys the landscape of traditional and contemporary thought about Jesus. Inbody first grounds his survey in a concise discussion of research into Jesus as a historical person and explores the implications and relevance of that research for contemporary christological thought. In chapter two he outlines classical Christology and Trinitarian thought and then provides a preliminary sketch of a contemporary Trinitarian Christology that emphasizes relationship more than understanding the exact nature of God. In chapters three, four, and five, Inbody surveys the basic positions and contributions of evangelical, liberal/process and postliberal (including liberationist), and feminist/womanist christologies. In his final three chapters, Inbody uses Christology to answer three key questions: is atonement theology nothing more than “divinely sanctions abuse?”; what is the relationship of Christianity to Judaism?; and is Christianity the one true path? This critical, mainstream survey provides pastors and seminarians an authoritative and comprehensive volume on the subject.

Jesus Revealed : Know Him Better To Love Him Better
$17.99A sense of comfortable familiarity with the Savior can cloud people’s vision_and even prevent them from drawing closer to Jesus as he really is. His titles and descriptions are heard so often that it’s easy to miss the impact of their true meaning. Even the name Jesus is so well known that it has lost much of its power in believers’ lives.
But now Jesus Revealed reintroduces readers to the true Son of God, helping them see him with clear vision, so that they can love him more fully and follow him more completely Readers will be surprised and delighted as they get to know the Jesus whose face is clearly revealed through the titles God gave him and the names used for him by his earliest followers.
In these pages, readers will encounter a Jesus who surprises and unsettles, who comforts and empowers, in astonishingly authentic ways. Each chapter focuses on one aspect of Jesus’ identity_such as Rabbi, Son of Man, Light of the World. As pastor and scholar Mark Roberts explores what’s behind each of these titles, he brings insight into the theological and historical meanings, and then relates them to life today.
Readers will travel back to first-century Palestine, meet the God-man we know as Jesus, and experience a soul-changing encounter with him. Because to know him is to love him.

Quest For Plausible Jesus
$65.00Should the dissimilarity between Jesus and early Christianity or between Jesus and Judaism be the central criteria for the historical Jesus? Gerd Theissen and Dagmar Winter argue that the criterion of dissimilarity does not do justice to the single most important result of more than two-thousand years of Jesus research, that the historical Jesus belongs to both Judaism and Christianity. The two authors propose a criterion of historical plausibility so that historical phenomenon under question can be considered authentic so long as it can be plausibly understood in its Jewish context and also facilitates a plausible explanation for its later effects in Christian history. This book is a cooperative project between Dagmar Winter and Gerd Theissen and represents the fruit of many years of their research on the historical Jesus.

Stories To Remember (Student/Study Guide)
$22.43Using the concept of the kingdom of God as a touchstone, Stories To Remember analyzes the parables and emphasizes how we can apply their lessons to our modern lives.

There’s also a study guide for digging deeper into the biblical and historical background and tips to assist small group leaders. This is the second book in the Another Look series: other titles examine the Apostles’ Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, and the Ten Commandments. These books are excellent for personal inspiration, use with new member or adult Sunday school classes, small group studies, and sermon preparation.

Steps To The Cross
$20.61This book addresses the question about why Jesus Christ was crucified.

This book is ideal for individual or group study of the life of Jesus Christ. It could also be used for Lenten devotions or sermon preparations.

Who Is Christ For Us
$19.98In the summer of 1933, Dietrich Bonhoeffer delivered powerful lectures that insisted Christians encounter Jesus Christ as a living person today, as well as in history and church life. Formulated in the face of the new Nazi regime, a decisive moment in Bonhoeffer’s own commitment to the Confessing Church, his words drew attention to the living Christ as always the humiliated “man for others,” the lodestar of Christian commitment and service. This volume, well introduced and contextualized by Nessan and Wind, consists in excerpts from the 1933 lectures–strikingly relevant today–along with other, contemporary writings from him and about him.

Jesus I Never Knew
$19.99An old adage says, “God created man in His own image and man has been returning the favor ever since.” Philip Yancey realized that despite a lifetime attending Sunday school topped off by a Bible college education, he really had no idea who Jesus was. In fact, he found himself further and further removed from the person of Jesus, distracted instead by flannel-graph figures and intellectual inspection. He determined to use his journalistic talents to approach Jesus, in the context of time, within the framework of history.
In The Jesus I Never Knew, Yancey explores the life of Jesus, as he explains, “‘from below,’ to grasp as best I can what it must have been like to observe in person the extraordinary events unfolding in Galilee and Judea” as Jesus traveled and taught. Yancey examines three fundamental questions: who Jesus was, why he came, and what he left behind. Step by step, scene by scene, Yancey probes the culture into which Jesus was born and grew to adulthood; his character and mission; his teachings and miracles; his legacy–not just as history has told it, but as he himself intended it to be.Yancey is not alone in his examination of the “real” Jesus. Publishing today is replete with writers committed to setting the story “straight,quot; joining countless others who, over the past 2,000 years, have determined to discover the truth about Jesus. But where others would deconstruct and discount, Yancey disarms and discloses. We become colleagues with him as he examines the accounts of the life of Jesus. And among the things that we discover is that Jesus himself leaves us few options: either he was who he said he was or he was nuts.
Philip Yancey was awarded the Gold Medallion Christian Book of the Year award for this book in 1996 by the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association. It’s not the first, nor the last, award Yancey has won for his writing. But the writing is not necessarily the great gift of this book. Yancey allows the reader to discover, along with him, The Jesus I Never Knew.
