  Blair Linne can tell you exactly when the ground under her feet fell through. Starting in 2015, she experienced crippling anxiety and panic attacks that spiraled her down a staircase into a basement of dark discouragement and shame. Sometimes, the journey downward was so intense it landed her in the emergency room. Like many Christians, Blair knew she “should” cast her frustrations onto God and process with him, but instead found herself crying out: “I. Don’t. Know. How!"In the harrowing season that followed—through the episodes of terror, rapid heart rate, difficulty breathing, trembling, dizziness, chills, intrusive thoughts, and even the fear of dying—Blair learned just how quickly she would have to give up the typical quick fixes, simple answers, and theological band-aids she had previously relied on. As the anxiety waves came crashing over her, many times without warning and without permission, she realized the truth: this was a complex issue, and there was no bypassing it. No sprinkling it with wishful thinking or spiritual platitudes. No willing herself out of it as if she were a bulletproof demigod.The only way was through it, in tender awareness of her weakness and delicate humanity, with God.On this side of the valley, Blair has come to appreciate even the worst moments of her story, for it has given her a deeper understanding of what it means to be human, what it actually means to lean into the Lord, and what it looks like to walk with a limp and a love for fellow strugglers. With profound lessons learned on the other side, Blair now rejoices in her affliction, for it has taught her to tremble in a new way: in awe of God.With biblical reflection woven together with gripping narrative, journey with Blair in Made to Tremble and experience not only the God of Peace—but the peace of God.

  Understanding Mark in the Context of the Old and New TestamentsThe book of Mark―the first and shortest Gospel written―serves as both a historical and theological account, connecting Jesus to the whole storyline of the Bible. Mark writes against the backdrop of the Old Testament and draws from other New Testament writers, specifically Peter and Paul, to articulate many themes that are found in the rest of the New Testament.In this addition to the New Testament Theology series, scholar Peter Orr offers an accessible summary of the theology of Mark, examining its relationship to both the Old and New Testaments. Each chapter focuses on a key theological theme―the identity of Christ, the announcement of the kingdom, the call to follow, and more―and explains how it is relevant for the church today. Part of the New Testament Theology Series: Other volumes include The Joy of Hearing; The Mission of the Triune God; and United to Christ, Walking in the SpiritIdeal for Anyone Wanting to Study the Bible More Deeply: Perfect for pastors, seminarians, college students, and laypeopleWritten by Peter Orr: New Testament lecturer and author of Fight for Your Pastor

  The Fall and Redemption of...

  Conscience from creation to new creation. 
   
  The God who created conscience is Father, Son, and Spirit. Thus, conscience is properly understood in relation to our Triune God and his work in the world―the Father's creation, the Son's redemption, and the Spirit's perfection. 
   
  In The Fall and Redemption of Conscience, Andrea Ferrari explores conscience in Trinitarian and redemptive-historical contexts. Ferrari draws from Scripture and theologians of the past―particularly John Calvin and John Webster―to build a comprehensive theology of the human experience in relation to God. Conscience is a covenantal awareness and vocational responsiveness. As such, conscience is how we recognize our lives and responsibilities as created and redeemed beings in covenant with God. The book includes a foreword by Paul T. Nimmo.
