Additional Info
The Old Testament bears witness to an in-your-face, holy God–a God who gets down and dirty with creation and history; a God who gets in people’s face with love and law, with power and purpose. Yet Israel’s in-your-face God is also “holy”–too other, too raw, too intense to be handled without oven mitts.Rolf Jacobson wrestles with this in-your-face God.The Old Testament starts at the beginning, where God digs in the dirt to create humanity and then gets in the dustlings’ faces when they sin. God smiles on Abraham and Sarah, electing their descendants as the chosen people, but has to get in Pharaoh’s face when he tries to enslave the people. Mostly, God gets in Israel’s face: with laws about what it looks like to be God’s people and through the prophets, who have to get in the faces of those who turn away from the Holy One.Jacobson also explores the psalms, poetry in which God often hides his face. He closes by exploring how the Old Testament points us ahead to Jesus, when God took on a human face and offered us the most intimate picture of God we’ll ever get.

Life Lessons From James
$14.99Do your Monday actions reflect your Sunday worship? How about your claims to faith? Is your life full of noticeable changes and actions? James, the half-brother of Jesus, wasn’t impressed with talk. He knew that a life of faith was all about actions that revealed a difference in a person’s life. For him, it was not that works save the Christian, but that they mark the Christian. In his letter, he boldly deals with practical issues of faith not bound by culture or place. He shows the importance of living a genuine life of faith. His message is bare-knuckled as he encourages, challenges, and confronts, offering practical words and admonitions to live out our faith.
The Life Lessons with Max Lucado series brings the Bible to life in twelve lessons filled with intriguing questions, inspirational stories, and poignant reflections to take you deeper into God’s Word. Each lesson includes an opening reflection, background information, an excerpt of the text (from the New International and New King James versions), exploration questions, inspirational thoughts from Max, and a closing takeaway for further reflection. The Life Lessons series is ideal for use in both a small-group setting or for individual study.
