This concise introduction to the interpretation of the book of Exodus encourages in-depth study of the text and deliberate grappling…
with related theological and historical questions by providing a critical assessment of key interpreters and interpretative debates. It draws on a range of methodological approaches (author-, text-, and reader-centered) and reflects the growing scholarly attention to the reception history of biblical texts, increasingly viewed as a vital aspect of interpretation rather than an optional extra. Throughout Discovering Exodus, Ralph Hawkins gives strategies for reading the book of Exodus, including archaeological criticism. He also reviews key issues raised by Exodus and connects these issues to questions of how this important Old Testament book should be interpreted today.

There is a broad consensus among biblical scholars that creation ex nihilo (from nothing) is a late Hellenistic concept with…
little inherent connection to Genesis 1 and other biblical creation texts. In this book, Nathan J. Chambers forces us to reconsider the question, arguing in favor of reading this chapter of the Bible in terms of ex nihilo creation and demonstrating that there is a sound basis for the early Christian development of the doctrine.Drawing on the theology of Augustine of Hippo and Thomas Aquinas, Chambers considers what the ex nihilo doctrine means and does in classical Christian dogma. He examines ancient Near Eastern cosmological texts that provide a potential context for reading Genesis 1. Recognizing the distance between the possible historical and theological frameworks for interpreting the text, he illuminates how this doctrine developed within early Christian thought as a consequence of the church’s commitment to reading Genesis 1 as part of Christian Scripture. Through original close readings of the chapter that engage critically with the work of Jon Levenson, Hermann Gunkel, and Brevard Childs, Chambers demonstrates that, far from precluding interpretive possibilities, reading Genesis 1 in terms of creation from nothing opens up a variety of interpretive avenues that have largely been overlooked in contemporary biblical scholarship.Timely and innovative, this book makes the case for a new (or recovered) framework for reading Genesis 1 that will appeal to biblical studies scholars and seminarians.

In this six-session revised and updated video Bible study, bestselling author Philip Yancey explores the concept of grace—the one thing…
the world cannot duplicate and the one thing it craves above all else—and explores what it looks like in action. He also examines how Christians, as the sole dispensers, are doing at lavishing the grace on a world that knows far more of cruelty and unforgiveness than it does of mercy.As Yancey explains, true grace is shocking and scandalous, for God does not excuse sin but always treasures the sinner. God always extends his grace to individuals regardless of what they have done—for no one is unforgiveable in his eyes. Grace thus shakes our conventions with its insistence on getting close to sinners and touching them with mercy and hope. It forgives the unfaithful spouse, the racist, the child abuser. It loves today's AIDS-ridden addict as much as the tax collector of Jesus' day.Yancey offers compelling and true portraits of grace's life-changing power. He searches for its presence in his own life and in the church. He asks how Christians today can contend graciously with moral issues that threaten all they hold dear. And he challenges each of us to become living answers to a world that desperately wants to know, &“what&’s so amazing about grace.&”

«Todo lo que sé sobre el liderazgo lo aprendí de la Biblia».Cuando el autor best seller John C. Maxwell comenzó a enseñar…
liderazgo a personas en la iglesia, a menudo se sorprendieron. Era obvio que era joven e inexperto, pero las ideas que transmitía parecían ir más allá de lo que debería saber. Más tarde, cuando comenzó a hablar a un público más general, la gente preguntó: «¿Dónde aprendió usted todo esto?».John estaba feliz de contarles su secreto: todo lo que sabía sobre el liderazgo lo aprendió de la Biblia. La Biblia no solo es el mejor libro jamás escrito, sino que es el mejor libro sobre el liderazgo jamás escrito. Todo lo que pueda desear aprender sobre el liderazgo (visión, propósito, estrategia, comunicación, actitud, aliento, mentoría, seguimiento) se puede encontrar en las páginas de la Palabra de Dios.En este estudio de veintiuna lecciones, John lo guía a través de las mismas escrituras fundamentales que han formado la base del trabajo de su vida. Cada lección incluye:• La definición de la ley: una breve descripción e introducción a la ley.• Estudios de casos: tres estudios bíblicos, incluyendo líderes como Moisés, Josué, David, Elías, Ester, María, Pablo y Jesús, que revelan e ilustran la ley.• Preguntas de estudio: preguntas de reflexión y aplicación para ayudarlo a profundizar en las historias de los hombres y mujeres en las Escrituras y aprender de ellas.• Perspicacia y reflexión del liderazgo: preguntas para ayudarlo a evaluar y mejorar sus propias habilidades de liderazgo.• Cómo llevar a la acción: lecciones prácticas y orientación para ayudarlo a incorporar cada lección en su vida diaria.• Preguntas de discusión en grupo: preguntas para ayudarlo a aprender y procesar el material de estudio de la Biblia con otras personas de ideas afines que desean crecer en liderazgo.• El liderazgo es para todos, porque cada persona que acepta a Cristo está llamada a influir en los demás. Así que aprenda de los mejores líderes que han vivido: los hombres y las mujeres en la Biblia.

Aprenda toda la verdad sobre el Espíritu Santo.No es malo que los cristianos respondan al Espíritu Santo con asombro con…
los ojos muy abiertos. Ciertamente, el Espíritu Santo debería inspirar nuestro asombro y admiración. Desafortunadamente, para muchos creyentes, estos sentimientos de asombro surgen como resultado del desconcierto en lugar de la adoración. Pero la verdad del asunto es que el papel del Espíritu Santo no tiene que ser un misterio en nuestras vidas y perderemos mucho el poder de Dios si elegimos ignorarlo. En Cómo depender del Espíritu Santo, Charles F. Stanley atraviesa la confusión y nos presenta a una persona viva tan real y activa como Dios el Padre y Cristo el Hijo. Podemos saber lo que dice la Palabra de Dios acerca de quién es el Espíritu y cómo desarrollar una relación con Él.La Serie Estudios bíblicos de Charles F. Stanley es un enfoque único al estudio bíblico que incorpora la verdad bíblica, perspectivas personales, respuestas emocionales y un llamado a la acción.

Certainly, the Holy Spirit should inspire our awe and admiration. Unfortunately, for many believers these feelings of wonder come about as a result of puzzlement instead of adoration. But the truth of the matter is that the role of the Holy Spirit does not have to be a mystery in our lives, and we will miss out greatly on God&’s power if we choose to ignore Him. In Relying on the Holy Spirit, Charles F. Stanley cuts through the confusion and introduces us to a living Person as real and active as God the Father and Christ the Son. We can know what God&’s Word says about who the Spirit is, and how to develop a relationship with Him.The Charles F.

“The Greatest Story Ever Told” is more than just a cliché. God has gone to great lengths to rescue lost…
and hurting people. That is what The Story is all about: the story of the Bible, God’s great love affair with humanity. Condensed into 31 accessible chapters—and using the clear, accessible text of the NIV—this rendering of the Bible allows its stories, poems, and teachings to come together in a single, compelling read. The Story sweeps you into the unfolding grand narrative of the Scriptures, and like any good story, it is filled with intrigue, drama, conflict, romance, and redemption. From the foreword by Max Lucado and Randy Frazee: “This book tells the grandest, most compelling story of all time: the story of a true God who loves his children, who established for them a way of salvation and provided a route to eternity. Each story in these 31 chapters reveals the God of grace—the God who speaks; the God who acts; the God who listens; the God whose love for his people culminated in his sacrifice of Jesus, his only Son, to atone for the sins of humanity.” NIV ©2011. The New International Version (NIV) translation of the Bible is the world’s most popular modern-English Bible—easy to understand, yet rich with the detail found in the original languages.

Far from being an engaging fable, the account of Job in the bible is one of the most historically and…
scientifically accurate records of the ancient world. Perhaps the oldest book in the Bible, the book of Job touches on many subjects of science and history. This commentary on the controversial Book of Job is very different from most of the seminary and church teachings so prevalent today, for it attests to the historicity of a man named Job who understood at the end of his life that God cannot be ?figured out,? but He can most certainly be trusted.

God guides our witness and our walk.In the book of Acts, we have a record of the most fertile period…
of outreach in the history of Christianity. Churches were planted near and far as Jesus&’ followers proclaimed the message of Christ. Luke&’s record in Acts reveals that God places a premium on the spread of the gospel. &“You shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth&” (Acts 1:8). He blesses our efforts to make disciples of all nations, one person at a time, and sends us His Spirit to guide our words, give us wisdom, and bolster our courage. We also learn that God is with us even during times of persecution and opposition . . . and He uses those times to sharpen us and make us effective instruments for His work.The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah&’s forty-plus years of commitment to teaching the Word of God. In each study, he will help you understand what the Bible says, what it meant to the people at the time it was written, and what it means to you today.

Two leaders, one burning mission: restoration.When the people of Israel returned to Jerusalem after their exile in Babylon, they found…
the city laid waste, the temple destroyed, and their way of life obliterated. Out of the ashes of this devastation, two leaders emerged to restore the foundations of their worship and their city. Ezra, the first to return, set out to restore true worship in Jerusalem by reminding the people of God’s teaching, what it meant for them, and how it should shape their lives. Nehemiah, the next to arrive, exchanged his royal cupbearer’s robes for coveralls and got to work rebuilding the wall. The project took twelve years and was an uphill battle all the way – with grumpy workers, squabbles, and enemies lurking at every turn. The efforts of these men reveal just how much God can accomplish in our lives when we follow where he leads.The Life Lessons with Max Lucado series brings the Bible to life in twelve lessons filled with intriguing questions, inspirational stories, and poignant reflections to take you deeper into God’s Word. Each lesson includes an opening reflection, background information, an excerpt of the text (from the New International and New King James versions), exploration questions, inspirational thoughts from Max, and a closing takeaway for further reflection. The Life Lessons series is ideal for use in both a small-group setting and for individual study.

God&’s grace cannot be earned.If you were a former slave who had been granted freedom, why would you voluntarily submit…
to slavery again? This question lies at the heart of Paul&’s letter to the Galatians, who had been deceived into believing they had to practice the laws of the Old Testament to receive salvation. Paul is adamant that God&’s grace cannot be earned, regardless of how many commandments we try to obey. Only our faith in Jesus provides the way to eternal life. &“Man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ . . . for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified&” (Galatians 2:16). This knowledge gives us freedom from the pressure of trying to be &“good enough&” for God.The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah&’s forty-plus years of commitment to teaching the Word of God.
