143,95 kr. Discover how the church brings together what the world has separated, transcending the boundaries that divide--national partitions, racial barriers, class distinctions, and political partisanship. Paul writes these letters from prison, as "an ambassador in chains" for preaching the gospel, demonstrating how struggle and resistance can unite believers and enhance their witness to Christ. This unity of the church--forming one body and one Spirit, joined in one hope, one Lord, one faith, and one baptism--is God's gift as well as a goal to be achieved through the transforming power of the gospel.

143,95 kr. In every stage of Israel's history and into the life of the church, music has played a central role. From the least to the greatest, the people of the Bible sang and played musical instruments, and music was woven into the fabric of their communal living and public worship. Many of these hymns and songs have been preserved for us in the Torah, prophets, gospels, and epistles. Choirs of voices, lyres and harps, strings and pipes, tambourines and dance all resonate in praise, remembering God's wondrous deeds and celebrating the feasts of God's people.

Ideal for Bible study groups, small Christian communities, parish leadership teams, adult faith formation, student Scripture-study groups, RCIA teams, and individual learning. About "People of the Passion Suffering seems to bring out the best and the worst in our human nature. Some people are overcome with hopelessness that leads to despair; others are filled with courage that leads to heroism. Still others exhibit a wide range of responses that reveal their character: trust, generosity, steadfastness, cowardice, greed, and pride. The people of the passion in this book are the characters who participated in some dramatic way in the suffering and death of Jesus. Well-known characters include Peter, Pilate, and Mary Magdalen; lesson-known include Simon of Cyrene, the daughters of Jerusalem, and the woman who anointed Jesus.

138,95 kr. The cross is the both worlds' most contemptible instrument of punishment and the symbol of humanity's greatest hope. In turning this tool of torture into his followers' proudest boast, Jesus produced the most dramatic reversal the world has ever experienced. Worn around our necks, hung in our homes, carried in procession and set on mountaintops, the cross speaks to what we believe about Jesus and about how we understand our lives in relationship to him. This study plumbs the depths of Scripture for the horrible and glorious significance of the world's most beloved symbol. Ideal for Lent and Easter seasons.
