You are invited to look into how the Old Testament Scriptures present Yahweh, the one true God and Creator of all, as interacting with humans in the visible form of a man—thus anticipating our understanding of the Second Person of the Godhead and His Incarnation.

In EJ Waggoner's sweeping overview of the history of God's people, God reveals as far back as the Old Testament the same gospel which Christians believe today. From Abraham to today's listener, all who believe are under the everlasting covenant. The author had a vision of "Christ crucified... and to me was revealed for the first time in my life the fact that God loved me, and that Christ gave Himself for me personally. It was all for me." According to Waggoner, one line runs through the Bible - God's everlasting covenant.

This little book presents a host of biblical proofs that concisely and winsomely demonstrate the deity of Christ. Curt D. Daniel surveys such an avalanche of evidence that any honest listener will find it difficult to deny the sheer weight of the Bible’s testimony that Jesus is God. Christians will see the richness of this wonderful truth in ways they may not have imagined, and, by God’s grace, such knowledge can be powerfully persuasive, convincing skeptics to believe.

Everything about the gospel message leads to the cross, and proceeds from the cross. In fact, within the narrative of Scripture, the crucifixion of Jesus is literally the crux of the story—the axis upon which the biblical story turns. But it would be a mistake to think we could sum up the significance of the crucifixion in a tidy sentence or two. That kind of thinking only insulates us from the magnificence of what God has done. In our ongoing quest to make meaning of the cross, we need to recognize that this conversation will never conclude-that there is always something more to be said.

While arguing with the Jewish religious leaders, Jesus said, “You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is these that bear witness of Me; . . .” In this book we will examine the Tanakh in order to assess the validity of Jesus’ claim. Hesed Volume One is the first book in a four volume series written for Jewish people who want to know the truth about Jesus.

If God is the one in whom we all live and move and have our being, then perhaps, we are the ones in whom God lives and moves and has being, too. If so, where does God end, and where do we begin? In this book, author Keith Giles asks us to reconsider our common assumptions about God and ourselves in ways we've never imagined before.

Evangelical Christians often sing and preach about the blessed blood of Christ and the wonderful things it accomplishes for believers. To the uninformed ear, such language can convey the idea that Jesus’ blood had semi-magical qualities. Actually, Jesus’ blood was normal human blood, but the Bible refers to it in metaphorical terms to portray the many benefits that come to Christians because of Jesus’ death.

Penal substitutionary atonement—the belief that Jesus’s death on the cross satisfied God’s wrath against sin—is central to the Christian faith, but frequently debated. Is it just to punish an innocent person in place of the guilty? How can the temporary death of one substitute for the eternal death of many? Why doesn’t the cross grant Christians unlimited permission to sin? In this famous essay, late theologian J. I. Packer analyzes Scripture and the works of early Reformers to defend the truth of Christ’s substitutionary suffering and death, the heart of the Christian gospel.

Christ conquered the West the first time. And this is how he’ll do it again. And when he does it again, Christians must be ready to take the lead. Jesus really is the answer to taxes, civil resistance, and speech laws. However, Christians do not need another political platform. They need a plan. This book is that plan.

We tend to think of Advent as the season of anticipation before Christmas—and while it is that, it's also much more. Throughout its history, the church has observed Advent as a preparation not only for the first coming of Christ in his incarnation but also for his second coming at the last day. It's also about a third coming: the coming of Christ to meet us in our present moment, to make us holy by his Word and Sacrament. Priest and writer Tish Harrison Warren explores all three of these "comings" of Christ and invites us into a deeper experience of the first season of the Christian year.

Separating fact from fiction, Professor Le Donne places Jesus within the context of first-century Judaism, and explores the debate about his status as 'Son of God' among the early Christians. He then follows his legacy through medieval Europe, and compares the various cultural Jesuses in enlightenment and post-enlightenment thought.

The Blessed Mother has appeared under many titles and under many different names. Each of Mary’s names and titles reflect a different aspect of her role in the life of the Church and in the lives of her children. Numerous shrines throughout North America have been built to facilitate devotion to Mary under her many titles and numerous graces, and author Julie Cragon has visited many of them with her family.

Beginning with these deep sleeps experienced by Adam, Noah, and Abraham, this book finds more than a dozen instances of sleep featured in the Old Testament, which each foreshadow the Passion of Jesus Christ.

Daughter Zion avoids the extremes of ignoring the biblical foundation for Marian doctrine on the one hand and fundamentalistic proof-texting on the other. Instead, the author beautifully and lucidly develops key biblical themes to help listeners understand and appreciate the mother of God.

Jesus’ resurrection is at the heart of our faith, but we barely understand all his divine achievements in those three days or how he accomplished them. We need to grasp the magnitude of the miracle that happened in Christ during that time. We need to touch this re-creation event, which is now in the Lord, and receive this same resurrection power.

What do Catholics really believe about Jesus? Dr. Alan Schreck offers a thorough answer to this question. Jesus is central to everything the church believes and teaches, yet few people really understand the significance of who Jesus is in their own lives.
