    Finding Messiah - A Journey into...

    Jesus was Jewish, and his Jewish identity informed every aspect of his work, words, and witness. He came as the Messiah of Israel, God's covenant people, and he spoke the language of God's faithfulness to this people. So why does it seem that Judaism has little to do with our Christian discipleship today? 
     
     
     
    Jennifer Rosner, a scholar of Jewish-Christian relations, takes us on a personal and corporate journey into the Jewish roots of Christian faith and practice. Understanding Judaism—and the way in which Judaism and Christianity became separate religions—is essential for a rich and holistic Christian identity. As a follower of Jesus who was raised in a Jewish home and who continues to live a Jewish life, Rosner has seen firsthand how a Christian faith can become impoverished when divorced from its Jewish roots. Finding Messiah follows Rosner's own journey in rediscovering the role of Judaism and God's covenant with Israel in Christian life and practice. When we begin to understand Christianity's indelible relationship to Judaism, key aspects of the Christian faith come alive and the wonder of the gospel becomes clear in new and powerful ways. 
     
     
     
    Jesus' Judaism provides the foundation for the church that is built upon his name. Rediscover the Jewish Jesus, and in so doing, experience a deeper and richer faith than ever before.

    Our lord repeatedly instructed us: "Be not deceived". That is an imperative: A command, not simply a suggestion. But how? What are the tools to prevent our being deceived or misled? The context of a passage is always a primary consideration in the search for understanding of a passage of scripture. It is often cited, "A verse out of context is a pretext". And, indeed, one must always maintain an awareness of both who is doing the speaking and the audience being addressed. However, this foundational emphasis can also be a restrictive blindfold to some of a passage's deeper (and broader) implications.

    In "Faith Cometh," Conrad Murrell dissects the rampant misinterpretation of faith in contemporary discourse, revealing its distortion by misguided religionists and unethical charlatans. 
    In the post-modern landscape, faith is often distorted, depicted as a tool for personal gain or the performance of miraculous feats. However, Murrell argues that true faith is not a means to selfish ends; rather, it constitutes the very essence of Christianity. His compelling prose not only challenges prevalent misconceptions but also emphasizes that genuine faith is not an optional addendum to Christianity-it forms the fundamental bedrock of the entire belief system. 
    While navigating the complexities of life, especially when seeking to discern God's will, Murrell makes a poignant assertion: this journey begins with belief. According to him, this is not merely a casual acceptance but a profound, transformative act of God that elevates existence from mere survival to an intentional, purposeful spiritual walk, where every step is guided by authentic faith.

    When people treat you wrongly, insult you, or are outright sinful to you, how do you react? Are you satisfied to hold grudges against those who wrong you, as long as they don't lead to action? Unfortunately, your decision to harbor bitterness is just as much of a sin as the one originally committed against you, and your reaction to others' sin is a spiritual battle you are called on to win. 
     
     
     
    Lou Priolo focuses on that battle in this vital book that seeks to weed out the problem of bitterness. By offering a biblical definition and identifying its outward signs, the author equips you to recognize bitterness in your own life, and he lays out a scriptural plan to ensure victory by repaying others' evil with good. You will find grudges losing their grip as you focus instead on how to show love. 
     
     
     
    The Resources for Biblical Living series addresses a wide range of practical life issues in a straightforward, down-to-earth, and, most of all, biblical manner.
