Sent : A Working Resource For The Gospel Of John And The Letters Of John
$22.95
Has John’s Gospel ever seemed an enigma-a wondrous and enticing enigma, but nonetheless puzzling? SENT provides a resourceful entree into John’s Gospel, that will be of encouragement to pastors, teachers, and small group leaders alike.
As a resource to John’s Gospel and the Letters of John, SENT seeks to combine the concluding statement of John 20 with Jesus’ affirmation of John 17:
“But these [signs] have been written in order that you might believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God,” the One who said, “As you have sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.”
Given this combination, SENT addresses two questions: to whom was Jesus sent and with what message? Moreover, through the entree of John 17, Jesus’ “I AM” statements resonate profoundly, even as the voice of John’s Gospel echoes throughout the Letters of John. SENT provides Scriptural texts in Greek and English, study questions, and meditations. The format is simple: divided into workable parts, it follows the course of the “academic year” in conjunction with the Christian calendar. It may be used devotionally or as an aid to teaching and preaching.”

Women Of The Bible Speak
$21.00Add to cartThe women of the Bible lived timeless stories–by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith.
People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever.
In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel’s Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us.
From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys.
The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.
