The Books of Ezekiel and Daniel...

Brian Simmons

The books of Ezekiel and Daniel relate dramatic visions of glory, apocalypse, and ultimate restoration. These revelations comforted the prophets' fellow Babylonian exiles amid devastating chaos and upheaval.


 


The book of Ezekiel bursts with vivid descriptions of heavenly visions, strong judgments, and incomprehensible divine love. Through it all, God's powerful acts of justice and promises of undeserved covenant blessing display his heart for us to know and adore. The book of Daniel recounts timeless stories of heroes exhibiting unshakable faith and integrity amid their culture's moral and ethical pressures. This extraordinary wisdom encourages and guides us today, while Daniel's stunning apocalyptic visions provide assurance that God is at work even in the darkness of end times.


 


We gain wisdom and confidence for today from these accounts of YAHWEH preserving his people in exile and majestically proclaiming his plan for their, and our, redemption.


 

"You will be my people, and I will be your God. I will save you from everything impure within you."

Ezekiel 36:28–29

Finding Our Way Forward - When...

Melanie Springer Mock

When our children turn 18, we hope to happily launch them into the world to become the adults we’ve been preparing them to be. Their pathway seems clear: most will go to college, find a vocation and then a true love, and settle into a comfortable life while we parents keep in touch through occasional phone calls, family gatherings, and surprise trips home for Christmas. But now more than ever, these expectations fail to acknowledge the significant challenges faced by many young people, from a pandemic to racial unrest to a climate crisis that is setting the world on fire, figuratively and literally. While young people are consistently told they need to discern God’s calling, in Finding Our Way Forward, Melanie Springer Mock draws on her decades as a college professor and mom to four adult children to explore how finding our way means developing a more expansive understanding of calling for ourselves and for the young adults we love, one that moves beyond vocation and capitalistic enterprises to what God really calls us to: Seeking justice. Loving mercy. Walking with humility. Loving others. Loving God. As we do so, our relationships can be transformed as together we find our way forward.

Land of My Sojourn - The...

Mike Cosper

Library Journal's Best Nonfiction of 2024
"Cosper's honest appraisal of Church disagreements and his own spiritual uncertainty results in his joyful acceptance of his identity as an imperfect wounded healer. Essential reading for Christians who have lost hope." – Library Journal Starred Review, January 2024
Faith in the Wilderness
Land of My Sojourn is a deeply personal, hope-filled story of faith, disillusionment, and coming back home. Through meditations on the spiritual significance of the mountains of the Bible and encounters with Peter, Elijah, and Jesus, Mike Cosper shares his own crisis of faith sparked by a painful church experience and the broader challenges facing evangelicalism today.
Cosper, host of The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill and Cultivated podcasts, examines the church's often troubled witness, its ongoing crisis of leadership, and the epidemic of narcissism, abuse, and cover-up that has continued to emerge year after year. This book is about Cosper's journey both before and undergirding that work—the shattering of dreams and the grace that restored a broken faith in the aftermath. It's a story about grace leading him home when he thought all was lost.
If you've found yourself lost in the wilderness of doubt or disillusionment with church, Land of My Sojourn will remind you that you're not alone—and that God is working even in your hardest times.
Cosper writes, "My hope is that as I tell this story you might find echoes of your own. I pray if you're in the wilderness, you might find that though the territory is a mystery, you are far from alone. Most of all, I pray that you rediscover that Jesus is chasing you like a lover . . . right through heaven's gates."
