For Christians, one of our earliest lessonsand greatest giftsis learning how to pray. And yet many of us believe our prayer lives fall short. In When God Is Silent, John Koessler reassures us that this has nothing to do with motivation or method. Our problems are relational, and recognizing this is the first step to having a better prayer life. Prayer is a conversation that moves primarily in one direction: from the believer who prays to the God who hears. If God appears silent, that does not mean that he is unresponsive. We always have Gods attention. This book does more than answer questions like how and why we should prayit also invites us to gain a sense of God, of his goodness, and the rich welcome that is waiting for us every time we approach him in the name of Jesus Christ.

Isaiahs servant songs reveal a true and better Adam In Charged with the Glory of God, Caroline Batchelder provides a synchronic, theological, and canonical reading of the four Servant Songs in Isaiah (42:19; 49:113; 50:311; 52:1353:12), showing how they relate to one another and the message of the prophetic book. Reading Isaiah as a compositional unity in conversation with other texts such as Genesis results in a coherent presentation of the mysterious servant. The polemic against idolatry reveals rebellious Israel to be false imagers of God. In contrast, Isaiahs servant is an ideal embodiment of Yahwehs image and likeness. Thus, the servant is a paradigm for those who wish to recapture and realize Gods good creation purposes for all humanity. The servant poems are not only a call to reorient oneself as a servant towards God and his creation, but also a map and means for doing so. In this study, Batchelder offers fresh insights from Isaiah for understanding Gods true image and its idolatrous counterfeits.

Exploring the Gospel through the Aaronic Blessing "The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face to shine upon you," (Numbers 6:2425). For centuries, Christians have read these words and received them as a blessing. But have they deeply considered the meaning behind them? What does it mean for Gods face to shine upon his people?Faces are often referred to as the window to the soul, displaying emotion and providing relational clarity between individuals. This theme of faces reverberates throughout Scripture, first appearing with Adam and Eve and notably surfacing in the Aaronic benediction in Numbers 6. The Lord Bless You and Keep You explores this benediction to discover the important connection between a persons face and the face of Godfinding that through faces, God shines the light of the gospel upon his people and offers his grace, goodness, and blessing to those who believe in him.
