Book excerpt: Jesus Wept, Barbara C. Crafton's best-selling and brilliant reflection on faith and depression, is now released in its tenth-anniversary edition, complete with a new foreword by the author, who reflects on the choice she made ten years ago to break the silence and speak openly about her own experience with depression. "I was determined to speak freely about it" she writes. "Many, probably most, of my clergy confreres were - and remain - unwilling to invite such a stigma to take up permanent residence in their resumes. But there are some who know the isolation and despair into which depression can drag a person, and they might benefit from knowing that someone whose whole life has been given to God also knows these things. If that is the case, it's well worth the stigma." Like all human experience, no two courses of depression and healing are the same. Religious belief can make depression easier, but it can also make it harder. It calls our beliefs about ourselves and about God's presence in our lives into painful question. Barbara Crafton's beautiful and candid book addresses these questions head on, reminding her readers that God does not ordain our suffering but instead meets us in our darkest days to compassionately call us toward the light.

Book excerpt: “Page-turning . . . Set against the political and religious turmoil of the times, the Thoenes’ story vividly reimagines the evolving friendship between Jesus and Lazarus.” —Publishers Weekly LAZARUS—the man Jesus raised from the dead in one of the most extraordinary encounters with The Living Savior in all of Scripture. But the life of Lazarus holds interest well beyond this miraculous event. Living in Bethany, near Jerusalem, Lazarus witnessed many of the most important events of Jesus’s life and ministry. Lazarus owned a vineyard and devoted his life to caring for its vines and fruit. But he encountered another man—Jesus—whose vineyard was the world, its fruit the eternal souls of men. When Lazarus’s story and the story of Jesus’s crucifixion and resurrection touch in When Jesus Wept, we are offered a unique vision into the power and comfort of Christ’s love. Brock and Bodie Thoene’s most powerful and climactic writing project to date, When Jesus Wept, captures the power and the passion of the men and women who lived through the most important days in the history of the world.

Book excerpt: To know a person to a very high degree, you need to know what makes them happy, so you can learn to do it, and what makes them sad, so you can avoid it. Jesus, the Son of God, is the visible image of the invisible God. If we want to know what makes God happy, all we have to do is figure out what makes Jesus happy. If we want to know what makes God sad, all we have to do is find out what makes Jesus sad. The events surrounding Lazarus's death and resurrection were so full of meaning and provoked extreme emotions from Jesus. Why did He weep on the way to Lazarus' tomb in Bethany? Could the answer to that question provide humanity clues to a deeper understanding of the divine nature? Reno Omokri unravels this and other issues in this book. The reason Jesus wept is not obvious and will come as a surprise to many. It makes for a very eye opening read and the reader is sure to come away with a much deeper understanding of who God is and what appeals to Him.

Book excerpt: Two words. John 11:35. It is the shortest verse in the entire Bible and it reads, "Jesus wept." Have you ever considered the monumental truth behind that verse? Jesus, fully man and fully God, found himself in the midst of human tragedy -- the death of a dear friend -- the death of a dear friend -- and he did what we would do. He cried. In this utterly profound book, Bruce Marchiano explores the head and heart of Jesus to answer questions hurting people have been asking for generations. Where was Jesus when I buried my husband? What was Jesus' reaction when my son was paralyzed? Or when my baby died? Or when the bus overturned? Or the tornado hit? When the terrorists struck on September 11, how did Jesus respond? The answer just might blow you away. Jesus wept.

Book excerpt: How are Christians to approach the central gospel teachings concerning the death and resurrection of Jesus? The Bible firmly establishes the historicity of these events and doesn't leave their meanings ambiguous or open to interpretation. Even so, there is an irony and surprising strangeness to the cross. Carson shows that this strange irony has deep implications for our lives as he examines the history and theology of Jesus's crucifixion and resurrection. Scandalous highlights important theological truths in accessible and applicable ways. Both amateur theologians and general readers will appreciate how Carson deftly preserves weighty theology while simultaneously noting the broader themes of Jesus' death and resurrection. Through exposition of five primary passages of Scripture, Carson helps us to more fully understand and appreciate the scandal of the cross.

This book was released on 2015-02-26 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lament does not seem to be a pervasive feature of the New Testament, particularly when viewed in relation to the Old Testament. A careful investigation of the New Testament, however, reveals that it thoroughly incorporates the pattern of Old Testament lament into its proclamation of the gospel, especially in the person of Jesus Christ as he both prays and embodies lament. As an act that fundamentally calls upon God to be faithful to God's promises to Israel and to the church, lament in the New Testament becomes a prayer of longing for God's kingdom, which has been inaugurated in the ministry and resurrection of Jesus, fully to come.

Book excerpt: This book is the story of a people whose time has come. Their time has come to finish the work that God had originally set them aside to do. Who are these people? These people are Black America - the descendants of the Slaves who were brought to America on ships. These Slaves were the descendants of the original Hebrews of the Bible. See how they ended up on the Slave Coast of Africa.God made a covenant with the Hebrews in which they were supposed to tell the world about Him, and He promised to always meet their needs and protect them. They broke that covenant because they wanted to be like the rest of the world, which worshipped idols. They only wanted God when they were in trouble. They knew God, but did not want Him around.God told Moses, their leader, to tell the Hebrews the following: "I will raise up for them a Prophet (Jesus Christ) like you from among their brethren, and will put My words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. And it shall be that whoever will not hear My words, which He speaks in My name, I will require it of him (Deuteronomy 18:18-19 New King James Version).Yet when Jesus came, they did not know Him: "But as He came closer to Jerusalem and saw the city ahead, HE BEGAN TO WEEP. 42 'How I wish today that you of all people would understand the way to peace. But now it is too late, and peace is hidden from your eyes' " (Luke 19:41-42 New Living Translation).Because of disobedience to God, they brought many calamities on themselves and their descendants. God sent His son Jesus Christ specifically to redeem the Hebrews first. However, they rejected the Savior. "He came to His own and His own received Him not" (John 1:11 New King James Version).Therefore, God diminished His chosen people and covered their eyes, gave them a spiritual blindness for a while. Then, God sent Jesus to the Gentiles (people who were not Hebrews). He said He would raise the Hebrews up again when the full number of Gentiles had been saved. (Romans 11:7-12, 25). I was inspired to write the story of my Black people, because our history before Slavery in America has been told by others in such a way as to hide the truth of who we are.Now the age of the Gentiles is just about over, and God is beginning to raise the original Hebrews up to finish the work He started in them. We are the ones the world has been waiting for. We are the ones to usher in Jesus Christ. See what God is saying to our people now!This book will take you back through our history and give evidence to show that we, Black America, are the original Hebrews of the Bible. The scriptures that you read and other references will bear this out.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idiosyncratic master Chester Brown continues his thoughts on sex work “The Bible is Chester Brown’s holy harlot. He plumbs the mysteries of her depths while she schools him in the ways of love. Like all of Chester’s work, Mary Wept Over the Feet of Jesus is confounding, yet addictive, instantly re-readable, and expands with revelations in his hundred pages of notes. A work of passion, research, and elegant clarity. My new favourite.”—Craig Thompson, author of Blankets and Habibi “Chester Brown is both God’s and the devil’s gift to the world.”—David Henry Sterry, author of Hos, Hookers, Call Girls and Rent Boys “Chester’s work never fails to surprise and delight me. Since I always enjoy mythic and legendary tales of harlots, I knew I would like Mary Wept Over the Feet of Jesus, but I was pleased and impressed by the way he used all these stories to illustrate a larger theme about humanity’s relationship to Divinity and the role my profession plays in that relationship. Chester shows that spirituality and sexuality, which are so often depicted in our culture as opposed to one another, are actually deeply intertwined.”—Maggie McNeill, author of The Honest Courtesan The iconoclastic and bestselling cartoonist of Paying for It: A comic-strip memoir about being a john and Louis Riel returns and with a polemical interpretation of the Bible that will be one of the most controversial and talked-about graphic novels of 2016. Mary Wept Over the Feet of Jesus is the retelling in comics form of nine biblical stories that present Chester Brown's fascinating and startling thesis about biblical representations of prostitution. Brown weaves a connecting line between Bathsheba, Ruth, Rahab, Tamar, Mary of Bethany, and the Virgin Mother. He reassesses the Christian moral code by examining the cultural implications of the Bible's representations of sex work. Mary Wept Over the Feet of Jesus is a fitting follow-up to Brown's sui generis graphic memoir Paying for It, which was reviewed twice in The New York Times and hailed by sex workers for Brown's advocacy for the decriminalization and normalization of prostitution. Brown approaches the Bible as he did the life of Louis Riel, making these stories compellingly readable and utterly pertinent to a modern audience. In classic Chester Brown fashion, he provides extensive handwritten endnotes that delve into the biblical lore that informs Mary Wept Over the Feet of Jesus.

Book excerpt: Profound reflections on the cross that help you to meditate on and marvel at the sacrificial love of Jesus. This book can be used as a devotional, especially during Lent and Easter. These profound reflections on the cross from David Mathis, author of The Christmas We Didn’t Expect, will help you to meditate on and marvel at Jesus’ life, sacrificial death, and spectacular resurrection-enabling you to treasure anew who Jesus is and what he has done. Many of us are so familiar with the Easter story that it becomes easy to miss subtle details and difficult to really enjoy its meaning. This book will help you to pause and marvel at Jesus, whose now-glorified wounds are a sign of his unfailing love and the decisive victory that he has won: “He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:5) This book can be used as a devotional. The chapters on Holy Week make it especially helpful during the Lent season and at Easter.

Book excerpt: Nothing is more irritating to young Americans than a judgy, preachy, holier than thou Christian who assumes they know everything about your life, trying to tell you how to live. Not only how to live, but how to think, how to feel, and how to hope. Individually, Christians are usually kind, friendly, and personable; together, they too often have a groupthink mentality and alienate their proselytes.Kids these days aren't putting up with it.Data shows Millennial and Gen Z Americans are abandoning their Churches, choosing to use their Sunday in any way other than organized worship. Older Americans still report going to church regularly, but the gap in attendance between them and the younger Americans is wide-and growing.But here is the thing: Half of Millennials and Gen Z still believe in God with absolute certainty. Only 23 percent say religion is not important in their lives. Most still pray, and two thirds consider heaven to be a reality. Millennials and Gen Z are not anti-religion, they are anti-church.Jesus Wept demonstrates the ways Millennials and Gen Z have become disillusioned by corporate Christianity. Through politics, human, minority, and LGBTQ+ rights, income inequality, and a host of other issues, many raised in the church feel the core teachings of love, honesty, charity, and kindness emphasized by Jesus have been replaced. Christianity has been taken over by conservative ideologies, abandoned Jesus' teachings, and now preaches ideas and philosophies never espoused by the Galilean Carpenter.
