The author asserts that Christians are an "Easter People" (made new of the resurrected Christ) trying to discern the will of God and make wise, moral decisions in a Good Friday world (a world that experiences the presence of sin and evil). This book is an attempt to help the reader consider carefully a process of making moral decisions. The method of making moral decisions focuses on the Christian character, virtues, and conscience. Readers are guided to think more carefully about their life and decisions as they seek to know and do the will of God. An excellent book for small congregational study groups.

Good Friday is a time of deep meditative reflection and sorrow for those who love Jesus Christ. And yet, it is also a time of anticipation towards Easter Sunday. The suffering endured by the Lord Jesus Christ on Good Friday is as much a part of Christianity as is the risen Christ. We live in a Good Friday world, but we are Easter Sunday people. As Christians, as Easter people, we are called to be a light to the world, the liberating voice of Christ. We are called to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with those who do not yet know Him as Savior. Jesus promised that He would set those who trusted in Him free from their "graves" of sin and guilt. Since Christ has risen victoriously from death, believers live in anticipation that they too will appear with Him in glory.

Tears represent the beginning of healing and transformation in our lives. They clear the dust from our eyes and help us to see things differently. Our tears make us receptive to the presence of angels and surprising resurrection encounters. It happened for Mary Magdalene when she met Jesus on Easter Sunday, and it can happen for you too. Find hope on the other side of tears as you read this series of meditations. Learn to live positively, not out of blissful ignorance, but out of deep conviction that the Risen Christ does represent the ultimate hope. Touched by His Love includes questions for personal reflection and group study, as well as a prayer and memory verse with each chapter.

This inspired collection offers a new paradigm for moving the world beyond violence as the first, and often only, response to violence. Through essays and poetry, prayers and meditations, Transforming Terror powerfully demonstrates that terrorist violence—defined here as any attack on unarmed civilians—can never be stopped by a return to the thinking that created it. A diverse array of contributors—writers, healers, spiritual and political leaders, scientists, and activists, including Desmond Tutu, Huston Smith, Riane Eisler, Daniel Ellsberg, Amos Oz, Fatema Mernissi, Fritjof Capra, George Lakoff, Mahmoud Darwish, Terry Tempest Williams, and Jack Kornfield—considers how we might transform the conditions that produce terrorist acts and bring true healing to the victims of these acts. Broadly encompassing both the Islamic and Western worlds, the book explores the nature of consciousness and offers a blueprint for change that makes peace possible. From unforgettable firsthand accounts of terrorism, the book draws us into awareness of our ecological and economic interdependence, the need for connectedness, and the innate human capacity for compassion.

Jesus promised, “Seek and you will find!” Do you long for a transforming encounter with the living God? Jesus assures us that those willing to become seekers will find what their hearts most deeply desire. The promise is clear. Those who seek God consistently, faithfully, and passionately will not be disappointed. They will find God and all those good things that accompany God’s Kingdom. Profoundly influenced by his long friendship with Dallas Willard, and his experience guiding people through the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius for the last thirty years, Trevor Hudson offers you a practical tool kit for your seeking journey. You search for God does not have to take you to a remote mountain top as God wants to meet us right where we are in our everyday lives. Reading the wisdom contained within the pages of Seeking God will help you to move beyond insight and knowledge and encounter the presence of the living God as a reality in your daily life.

From Advent to Ascension: A Journey with the Christ follows the themes and direction of the Christian year that focus specifically on the earthly life of Christ. Beginning with the expectations of Advent, you’re invited to walk with Jesus from his birth to his Ascension. This journey encourages you to consider what it means to take the name of “Christian.” As such, this book invites you to carefully consider the elements of Jesus’s life and teachings. Consider questions such as: • What does it truly mean to follow Jesus? • What does Christianity claim arrived in the person of Jesus? • What is God’s dream for the future of humanity? • What is it we should expect from the Christ? Christianity is a faith with a story. That narrative is told and retold year after year until it can be lost in the mix of seasons and programs. From Advent to Ascension can be a tool by which your church can encounter anew the story of the Christian faith. Ignite your faith and join the author on a devotional study of Jesus beginning with the Advent season and continuing through his ascension. It is a journey that will move you closer to the Lord.

If Barbara Johnson has brought comfort to thousands of women, it’s not because her life has been comfortable. Barbara has known more heartbreak than most of us ever will. But that is why her encouragement truly inspires, why her humor makes us smile, and why her insightfulness can move us to tears. Through thick and thin, Barbara has held onto God--and so she is uniquely qualified to help us see how God holds onto us and won’t let go, no matter what life dishes out.The sixty selections in this book represent the cream of Barbara’s devotional crop. Kick your shoes off, settle back, and unwind. Or give this book to someone you know who would enjoy a chuckle, a reflective pause, an "Aha!" moment, maybe even a tear. Insights and encouragement lie within--and more than a few grins!

Perhaps, after all, the decolonising agenda isn’t extra baggage the church needs to carry on top of everything else. Perhaps, instead, it is the very heart of what the church should be about – disrupting, uncomfortable, and bringing about a kind of ‘holy anarchy’. In Holy Anarchy, Graham Adams points to a realm in which all dynamics of domination, not least in the church, are subverted. It cuts across the loyalties and boundaries of religion and fosters the greatest possible solidarity amongst the different. Urgent and timely, the book weaves together themes around Empire, liberation and decolonial practice with an exploration of the nature and scope of church community, interreligious engagement, mission, and worship.
