Tackle Key Questions from the Past Two Decades in this Fully Updated EditionEngage with the latest scholarship on the biblical theology of mission and missional hermeneutics with Christopher J. H. Wrights classic textnow fully revised and updated!Most Christians would agree that the Bible provides a basis for mission. But Christopher Wright boldly maintains that there is a missional basis for the Bible itself. The entire Bible is generated by and is all about Gods mission. In order to understand the Scriptures, we need a missional hermeneutic, an interpretive perspective in sync with the beating heart of its great mission.Wright gives us a new hermeneutical perspective on Scripture through an understanding of: Who God is What he has called his people to be and do How the nations fit into Gods mission In this revised edition of The Mission of God, Wright extends his classic discussion to consider the ways that the conversation on missional hermeneutics has developed since its original publication. With fully updated citations and additional chapters focused on gospel-centered holistic mission and on the issue of election and supersessionism, this new edition addresses the questions, criticisms, and insights that have emerged during the intervening two decades.Gods mission is to reclaim the world, and Gods people have a designated role to play. Whether youre a pastor, scholar, or student, The Mission of God will benefit your understanding of how the Bible shapes the story and purpose of Gods people.

Find joy and freedom in surrenderLetting go is hard.To surrender is to let go of what we tightly grip, the good and the bad. Its a relinquishing of control, a recognition that God alone can meet our deepest needs. Its a holy pause that entrusts each hope, each worry, and each pressing concern to the One whose love for us is beyond measure. And in this surrender, we enter into freedom. But, even so, letting go often feels easier said than done.In The Freedom of Surrender, author Mary DeMuth invites you to journey through forty days of entrusting specific areas of your life to Godyour inner struggles, your family, your expectations, your regrets, your ministry, your grief, your relationships, your job, your health, your finances, your future, and more. Every daily devotion includes Scripture, prayer, and Marys original art that help you cast each care on the One who cares for you.On this forty-day journey, youll learn: How to trust that God is in control, even in moments of chaos and stress. True joy and freedom can happen when we release what were holding too tightly. Gods plan is to see you thrive and grow. Prayer opens the door to freedom and peace. Even in your struggles, you are never alone. When we entrust our stresses and worries to God, we embrace the reality thats always been true: Our "control" is an illusion. God alone can meet our needs, heal our wounds, and guide our steps. From this place of total reliance on God, we can experience deep joy and the peace that passes understanding.What are you holding too tightly? Experience freedom as you invite Jesus to help you surrender all.

Aleksander Krogevoll offers the first extensive study on El Shadday. This includes the most thorough review of all etymologies proposed for Shadday and the most extensive examination on the use and meaning of Shadday in the Hebrew Bible. The author challenges the views that Shadday was unique to the Priestly source or that Priestly source invented the epithet. He supports the etymology of Shaddai being the Akkadian adu, "mountain." By tracing the epithet adu from Akkadian where it was attached to Enlil and Dagan to the Ugaritic El, Krogevoll presents a new hypothesis for how Shadday was introduced into Hebrew. This work is the first book-length study on the equation between El Shadday and Yahweh. Other scholars have proposed that their shared mountain motifs played a part in the equation, but this work is the first study to examine the equation through the lens of the shared mountain motifs at length.

In the translators introduction to this volume, James Kellerman relates the following story:As Thomas Aquinas was approaching Paris, a fellow traveler pointed out the lovely buildings gracing that city. Aquinas was impressed, to be sure, but he sighed and stated that he would rather have the complete Incomplete Commentary on Matthew than to be mayor of Paris itself.Thomass affection for the work attests its great popularity during the Middle Ages, despite its significant missing parts--everything beyond the end of Matthew 25, with further gaps of Matthew 8:11--10:15 and 13:14--18:35. Although there are gaps, what remains is quite lengthy, so much so that we offer the work in two volumes, comprising fifty-four homilies.While the early-fifth-century author displays a few Arian propensities in a handful of passages, for the most part the commentary is moral in nature and therefore orthodox and generic. The unknown author, who for several centuries was thought to be John Chrysostom, follows the allegorizing method of the Alexandrians, but not by overlooking the literal meaning. His passion, above all, is to set forth the meaning of Matthews Gospel for his readers.Here, for the first time, this ancient work is made available in English, ably translated by James A. Kellerman and edited by Thomas C. Oden.Ancient Christian Texts are new English translations of full-length commentaries or sermon series from ancient Christian authors that allow you to study key writings of the early church fathers in a fresh way.

After losing her husband, Ruth didnt know what the future had in store. But God showed her he still had a great plan for the years ahead. In this book, Ruth retells the remarkable journey God led her on, from being a retired primary school teacher in London to ten years of serving God in the foothills of Mount Kenya. Along the way, she learnt so much about the world and herself, but most of all about the unstoppable faithfulness of God to his promises in extraordinary ways.Ruth spent a decade lovingly working with many children in childrens homes, helping them through to their early years of adulthood. She sought to ensure they had the education, skills and faith in God that the rest of their lives would require.But it wasnt just others who were blessed. Ruth tells how the whole experience radically deepened her confidence in the Lord, even in the most difficult of circumstances."This book highlights the endless possibilities of a life offered to God whatever your age. Ruths daily trust in the providence, provision and protection of the Almighty God will inspire, encourage and challenge you. Christian biographies are essential reading for every believer, and this one of the best and a must read." Lindsay Benn

Can a Christian be lost even after conversion, baptism, and a life of faith?This question touches the very heart of the Christian faith and remains one of the most debated issues among Bible-believing Christians. This book explores whether true followers of Jesus can lose their salvationnot on the basis of theological systems, but by examining all 545 salvation-relevant passages of the New Testament, representing about 35 % of its total text.The study is unique in the history of theology: every verse has been identified, systematically categorized, and carefully interpreted in its original context. The result is a comprehensive and clearly structured synthesisfrom Gods gracious call to the conditions of genuine discipleship, from assurance and preservation to the possibility of falling away.Following the structure of the "7-Level Pyramid" presented on vielesindberufen.de, this volume (Level 6) offers a clear main thesis, intermediate summaries, and in-depth textual analysisideal for serious theological readers, Bible students, small groups, or personal study.To the best of our knowledge, this work ranks among the three most extensive investigations on this subject in the entire history of the Churchand may well be the most comprehensive ever written. Its methodological breadth and analytical precision make it a pioneering contributioncombining systematic clarity, exegetical depth, and spiritual discernment in a way previously unseen in theological research.Many Are Called is both a wake-up call to vigilance and a source of deep encouragement for those who truly follow Jesus. It invites readers to renewed devotion, to a faith that endures, and to a life rooted in the unshakable truth of Gods Word.For all who desire to remain faithful to the endsustained by Gods grace, strengthened by His Spirit, and guided by His Word.
