Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates that Latin American liberation theology continues to produce substantial biblical exegesis, absorbing theological reflection, and a sharp social critique that enhances the worldwide church. In Jesus Goes to McDonald's, Rossi asserts that the book of Job protests against the devastating effects of imperial Persian rule in postexilic Judah--effects seen as the stimulus for the theology of reward so severely criticized by Job. Not since Gustavo GutiŽrrez's On Job has there been such a compelling reading of the book of Job as a literary mirror of oppressive socioeconomic and political conditions. Rossi uses Job to offer a critique of the prosperity theology that is so dominant in parts of the church today. The second half of the book offers a radical critique of the McDonaldization of society and church. Free market capitalism has become an all-embracing worldview to the detriment of society and church. As counter-speech, Rossi proposes a theology that favors life, a life in which solidarity with the poor is central.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER "A profound book.... It will break your heart but also leave you with hope." —J.D. Vance, author of Hillbilly Elegy "[A] deeply empathetic book." —The Economist With stark photo essays and unforgettable true stories, Chris Arnade cuts through "expert" pontification on inequality, addiction, and poverty to allow those who have been left behind to define themselves on their own terms. After abandoning his Wall Street career, Chris Arnade decided to document poverty and addiction in the Bronx. He began interviewing, photographing, and becoming close friends with homeless addicts, and spent hours in drug dens and McDonald's. Then he started driving across America to see how the rest of the country compared. He found the same types of stories everywhere, across lines of race, ethnicity, religion, and geography. The people he got to know, from Alabama and California to Maine and Nevada, gave Arnade a new respect for the dignity and resilience of what he calls America's Back Row--those who lack the credentials and advantages of the so-called meritocratic upper class. The strivers in the Front Row, with their advanced degrees and upward mobility, see the Back Row's values as worthless. They scorn anyone who stays in a dying town or city as foolish, and mock anyone who clings to religion or tradition as naïve. As Takeesha, a woman in the Bronx, told Arnade, she wants to be seen she sees herself: "a prostitute, a mother of six, and a child of God." This book is his attempt to help the rest of us truly see, hear, and respect millions of people who've been left behind.

Book excerpt: A sympathetic, compassionate, and inspiring guide for parents—from the founders of one of the first Christian ministries for parents of LGBTQ children. Greg and Lynn McDonald had never interacted with members of the LGBTQ community until they discovered that their son was gay. Without resources or support, they had no idea how to come to terms with this discovery. At first they tried to “fix” him, to no avail. But even in the earliest days of their journey, the McDonalds clung to two absolutes: they would love God, and they would love their son. “An essential resource for Christian parents of LGBTQ kids,” (Matthew Vines, Executive Director of The Reformation Project) this book follows the McDonald family’s journey over the next twenty years, from a place of grief to a place of gratitude and acceptance that led the McDonalds to start one of the first Christian ministries for parents of LGBTQ children. Based on their experience from counseling and coaching hundreds of struggling Christian parents, they offer tools for understanding your own emotional patterns and spiritual challenges. They also help you experience a deeper relationship with God while handling difficult or unexpected situations that are out of your control. You will discover tested principles, patterns, and spiritual lessons that can change the way we all see our families, and help Christians at large think through Christ-like ways to respond to the LGBTQ community. Written in an unvarnished, honest, reassuring, and relatable voice, this is a practical guide for parents and a roadmap to learning to love God, the people He created, and the church, even when they seem to be at odds.

Book excerpt: If we want to see God in the midst of our struggles, we have to change the way we look for him. There is no denying that miracles, answers to prayer, and abundant blessings testify to God’s presence. When the desires of our hearts are filled, it’s easy to see him. But what about the seasons when he seems invisible? Scripture tells us God never sleeps, but it is easy to feel like he is not attuned to our needs. Shift explores the life-changing truth that when we adjust our lens to focus our eyes on God rather than on what we wish we were seeing in our lives, he reveals himself to us. In fact, those moments when he seems invisible to us are often when others see him the most in us. When Jesus walked the earth, he looked to God for his earthly needs. Jesus had deep a relationship with the Father that fueled his mission, his purpose, and his effectiveness. Scripture tells us that we can have that too. But there is a shift that needs to take place in our hearts and minds. No matter our circumstances, we can see God in our lives—right here, right now.

Book excerpt: Well-known for his scholarly works on the formation of the biblical canon, Lee McDonald has written a carefully researched and reasoned explanation on the history of the formation of the Bible expressly for the interested pastor and curious layman. Combining a lifelong commitment to the Scriptures, both as a pastor and as a scholar, McDonald approaches his task with sensitivity to the importance of these sacred texts as well as with the thoughtful practice of a person steeped in the process by which these texts were brought together to form the Bible as the church knows it now. From the collection (and translations) of the Hebrew Scriptures through the collection of the New Testament Scriptures, and finally the process of settling on the final forms for these collections, McDonald leads his reader right up to the present moment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people think that while living our daily lives can be difficult--even challenging--following Jesus is actually pretty easy. All we need to do is say "yes" to Jesus and our lives can go on without interruption. But is it really that easy to follow? Is he a Jesus without cost or requirement? At some point, we all need to ask ourselves, "Who is this Lord that I'm serving?" Our culture encourages us to think of Jesus as a good friend who will not put any demands on our time or our lives. But the real Jesus, the God of the Bible, comes with a cost. He demands our time. He demands our thoughts. He demands our lives. He demands our all. It's only when we are willing to pay that cost that we get to know our Savior as he really is--and we realize that he's worth so much more!

Book excerpt: The Final Straw is a study in the Gospel of Mark. It is the story of Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus chose a motley crew of fishermen, tax collectors and militant radicals for disciples. They followed him up and down the dusty roads of Israel witnessing his miracles and hearing firsthand the words that fell from his lips. However, Jesus miracles and teachings brewed tension between Jesus and the religious leaders of Israel. Jesus is pushed to the point of no return at seeing corruption in the Temple. Likewise, Jesus actions at Passover became the final straw for the Pharisees and Sadducees and spiraled into a conspiracy of murder.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let My People Go! is a prophetic call to the Church, to believe and walk in the same Gospel that the first disciples believed and demonstrated in their daily lives. We know that the New Testament is not written in classical Greek form. It is, however, Hebrew in its thought pattern and sentence structures. This should be anticipated, as the writers were predominantly born-again, Spirit-filled, tongue-talking Hebrew Christians. The Message that they passed on to us must be interpreted from this perspective in order to arrive at the truths they intended to convey to us. A failure to interpret and receive their writings from their perspective results in a twisting of the scriptures and a skewed, distorted picture of the Gospel Message. In delivering the message of the Gospel, we as believers and ministers are called by God to "carry the mail." As the mailmen of God, we have no right to change in any way the content of the Message we carry. When we do this, we find that there are a small number of Greek words upon which their Gospel Message is built. These words become the threads of revelation, that when woven together, reveal the true picture of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. With the exception of the apostle Paul, most of the New Testament writers were not scholars, but blue-collar workers; fishermen, tax collectors, etc. People like us. If it was not too deep for them to write, it is not too deep for us to understand. After all, Jesus Promised that the same Holy Spirit who inspired those men would "guide you into all the truth" (John 16:13). The Gospel of Jesus Christ is not difficult to understand but it takes courage and trust to receive it and live it as it was originally given. In the end, the picture of our lives must demonstrate the same Gospel as the lives of the first disciples. If not, we are in error and in need of change.

This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking book, Dennis R. MacDonald offers an entirely new view of the New Testament gospel of Mark. The author of the earliest gospel was not writing history, nor was he merely recording tradition, MacDonald argues. Close reading and careful analysis show that Mark borrowed extensively from the Odyssey and the Iliad and that he wanted his readers to recognise the Homeric antecedents in Mark's story of Jesus. Mark was composing a prose anti-epic, MacDonald says, presenting Jesus as a suffering hero modeled after but far superior to traditional Greek heroes. Much like Odysseus, Mark's Jesus sails the seas with uncomprehending companions, encounters preternatural opponents, and suffers many things before confronting rivals who have made his house a den of thieves. In his death and burial, Jesus emulates Hector, although unlike Hector Jesus leaves his tomb empty. Mark's minor characters, too, recall Homeric predecessors: Bartimaeus emulates Tiresias; Joseph of Arimathea, Priam; and the women at the tomb, Helen, Hecuba, and Andromache. And, entire episodes in Mark mirror Homeric episodes, including stilling the sea, walking on water, feeding the multitudes, the Triumphal E
