How is the one God also three persons? How is Jesus fully God and fully human? Who in the world should we pray to? And why does any of it matter? Steve Dancause offers a succinct and profound investigation into how what we think about God as Trinity matters in our faith, our work, and our love. It matters because the walls of our churches are cracking around us. We can keep patching things up, but it is better to go to the foundation and do the hard digging. With the right foundation, the structure holds, and it stands the test of eternity. And it is only in Jesus, and the Trinity he reveals to us, that we build our lives on solid rock. Let’s dig down together. The Jesus Way: Small Books of Radical Faith delve into big questions about God’s work in the world. These concise, practical books are deeply rooted in Anabaptist theology. Crafted by a diverse community of internationally renowned scholars, pastors, and practitioners, The Jesus Way series helps readers deepen their faith in Christ and enliven their witness. Accessible Jesus-centered theology from an Anabaptist perspective Designed for use by individual readers, small groups, and Christian education classes Glossary of terms and discussion and reflection questions in each volume

A profound exploration of how to hold on to hope when our unchanging faith collides with a changing culture, from two respected Christian storytellers and thought leaders. “Offers neither spin control nor image maintenance for the evangelical tribe, but genuine hope.”—Russell Moore, president of ERLC As the pressures of health warnings, economic turmoil, and partisan politics continue to rise, the influence of gospel-focused Christians seems to be waning. In the public square and popular opinion, we are losing our voice right when it’s needed most for Christ’s glory and the common good. But there’s another story unfolding too—if you know where to look. In Gospelbound, Collin Hansen and Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra counter these growing fears with a robust message of resolute hope for anyone hungry for good news. Join them in exploring profound stories of Christians who are quietly changing the world in the name of Jesus—from the wild world of digital media to the stories of ancient saints and unsung contemporary activists on the frontiers of justice and mercy. Discover how, in these dark times, the light of Jesus shines even brighter. You haven’t heard the whole story. And that’s good news.

When world-class biblical scholar Bart Ehrman first began to study the texts of the Bible in their original languages he was startled to discover the multitude of mistakes and intentional alterations that had been made by earlier translators. In Misquoting Jesus, Ehrman tells the story behind the mistakes and changes that ancient scribes made to the New Testament and shows the great impact they had upon the Bible we use today. He frames his account with personal reflections on how his study of the Greek manuscripts made him abandon his once ultraconservative views of the Bible. Since the advent of the printing press and the accurate reproduction of texts, most people have assumed that when they read the New Testament they are reading an exact copy of Jesus's words or Saint Paul's writings. And yet, for almost fifteen hundred years these manuscripts were hand copied by scribes who were deeply influenced by the cultural, theological, and political disputes of their day. Both mistakes and intentional changes abound in the surviving manuscripts, making the original words difficult to reconstruct. For the first time, Ehrman reveals where and why these changes were made and how scholars go about reconstructing the original words of the New Testament as closely as possible. Ehrman makes the provocative case that many of our cherished biblical stories and widely held beliefs concerning the divinity of Jesus, the Trinity, and the divine origins of the Bible itself stem from both intentional and accidental alterations by scribes -- alterations that dramatically affected all subsequent versions of the Bible.

The following dissertation concerning the Trinity, as the reader ought to be informed, has been written in order to guard against the sophistries of those who disdain to begin with faith, and are deceived by a crude and perverse love of reason. Now one class of such men endeavor to transfer to things incorporeal and spiritual the ideas they have formed, whether through experience of the bodily senses, or by natural human wit and diligent quickness, or by the aid of art, from things corporeal; so as to seek to measure and conceive of the former by the latter.

Understanding the Trinity. All three major religions identify with the God of Abraham. They differ in their understanding of Jesus. However, one God in three persons is found throughout both Old and New Testament. Getting to know God is critical for understanding the Bible. Yet, it seems that many people have not studied this thoroughly, and have questions like: • Is Jesus truly God? • If so, how, or why is Jesus the Son of God? • If Jesus knew everything as God, why did he pray? • If Jesus is God could he have ever sinned? • What makes God the Father different? • What or who is the Holy Spirit? This book answers all of those questions and more. When people ask, “Does Jesus love me?” The answer is yes, Jesus loves us all, but this love is conditional. The ways that Jesus loves us are from his own words and covered in the section Jesus-loving. How Jesus loves us was demonstrated when he sacrificed his life for us so that we might receive forgiveness and the promise of eternal life. However, not all will be saved. There is only one way to heaven, and the Bible says it is appointed for everyone to die once, then face judgment. (Heb 9:27) So, there will come a judgment day, and whoever rejects Jesus will not have eternal life, because God’s punishment will remain on them (Joh 3:36) The Bible also says many will abandon the faith. (1 Ti 4:1) This book will help you become more secure in your faith by getting to know God in the Old Testament and knowing Jesus through the Old and New Testament as the Trinity is explained. There is a spiritual battle going on, and our eternal destiny is at stake. Satan would like to separate you from God and one method is tempting you to doubt. Beginning in Genesis 3 when tempting Eve, he asked, “did God really say_______?” Since then, Satan has continued to insinuate we should doubt what God has said, or that he can be trusted. You may have heard, or even repeated some of the following statements, that presumably originated with Satan, the father of lies. • Why would a loving God let bad things happen to good people? • Hell does not exist. Why would a loving God send people to hell? • You do not really believe that Jesus is the only way to God, do you? That is narrow minded. What about other spiritual leaders like the Buddha, or Muhammad? • What about the people who never heard about Jesus? When tempted by Satan, Jesus quoted the Bible to refute him. You need to be prepared to do the same. This book is for everyone—because most do not study the Bible. Seemingly, many Christians either just listen to sermons or only sporadically read the Bible. Others may read the New testament but skip the Old thinking it is not relevant anymore or find it difficult to understand. However, we must consider the Bible as a whole to fully appreciate God. To make it easy, this book is written so you can skim, scan or study like speedreading. It includes verses and references to Scripture throughout. It is like going through the Bible in chronological order. As you grow in your knowledge about the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit you will find the Bible much easier to understand and draw nearer to God.

What beliefs are core to the Christian faith? This book is here to help you understand the reason for your hope as a Christian so that you can see it with fresh sight and invite others into the conversation. A lot of Christians take their story—the narratives that give rise to their beliefs—for granted. They pray, go to church, perhaps even read their Bible. But they might be stuck if a stranger asked them to explain what they believe and why they believe it. Author, pastor, and theologian Mike Horton unpacks the essential and basic beliefs that all Christians share in a way that is easy to understand and applicable to our lives today. And in a way that will make you excited to be a Christian! Core Christianity covers topics like: Jesus as both fully God and fully man. The doctrine of the Trinity. The goodness of God despite a broken world. The ways God speaks. The meaning of salvation. What is the Christian calling? Includes discussion questions for individual or group use. This introduction to the basic doctrines of Christianity is perfect for those who are new to the faith, as well as those who have an interest in deepening their understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

"My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" How should a Christian interpret this passage? What implications does the cross have for the trinitarian theology? Did the Father kill the Son? Theologian Thomas McCall presents a trinitarian reading of Christ's darkest moment--the moment of his prayer to his heavenly Father from the cross. McCall revisits the biblical texts and surveys the various interpretations of Jesus cry, ranging from early church theologians to the Reformation to contemporary theologians. Along the way, he explains the terms of the scholarly debate and clearly marks out what he believes to be the historically orthodox point of view. By approaching the Son's cry to the Father as an event in the life of the Triune God, Forsaken seeks to recover the true poignancy of the orthodox perspective on the cross.
