Sinopse

"The Lord shepherds me, and nothing will be lacking for me. In a place of tender grass, there he causes me to encamp."
In his reading of Psalm 23, early Christian theologian Didymus the Blind perceived the comfort that is provided only by Christ, the good shepherd: "The disciples of Christ who have become perfect in his instruction . . . do not simply hear a voice, but they are familiar with the teacher himself."
Born around the year when the Edict of Milan legalized Christianity, Didymus the Blind (ca. 313-398) lost his sight due to an illness at a young age. He nevertheless excelled at learning and became a defender of Nicene orthodoxy against Arianism. Over the course of his career, he wrote numerous theological treatises and exegetical works. Though some of his theological speculations would later earn the ire of the Second Council of Constantinople, Didymus was also a careful exegete of Scripture.
This Ancient Christian Texts volume presents Didymus's lectures on portions of the Psalms as they were originally presented to his students. Here readers can learn at the feet of this early Christian teacher and find comfort in the Word of God.
Ancient Christian Texts are new English translations of full-length commentaries or sermon series from ancient Christian authors that allow you to study key writings of the early church fathers in a fresh way.

    Your weekly pattern has you in a dead-end loop. You feel yourself spiraling, gravity dragging you toward the nucleus you don’t want absorbing you.  I’ve been there too.   We want to “set our hearts and minds on things above” and not to “conform to the patterns of this world but to be transformed by renewing the mind.”  How do we allow God to create the new pattern, the new path for our minds to trek each week?I’ve recorded this audio-booklet to share the few verses and thoughts that helped me seek God’s path for my heart, mind, and life.  Listen to the short devo for each day of the week and remind yourself of the day’s focus frequently during the day.  See if it doesn’t help you.  I would encourage you to repeat multiple weeks until you know the day’s focus and recall the verses by heart.

    The early church in Corinth was falling apart. Sin was rampant, divisions were growing, and the congregation was living no differently than the world around them. What had corrupted this once vibrant church? The apostle Paul immediately understood the symptoms: The people had traded God's perfect wisdom for faulty human knowledge. Be Wise guides us through Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, where he encourages his fellow believers to embrace a life of wisdom and truth. 
    Part of Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe's best-selling "BE" commentary series, Be Wise has now been updated with study questions and a new introduction by Ken Baugh. A respected pastor and Bible teacher, Dr. Wiersbe shares a wealth of insights on living wisely.
