  The resurrection of Jesus from the dead lies at the heart of the Christian faith. It is the turning point of history, with far-reaching implications for our understanding of what God is doing in the world. 
   
  Resurrection and Renewal is a fresh contribution by an award-winning scholar to the study of Jesus's resurrection. The book is not an apologetic; rather, it takes the resurrection as a given reality and examines what the Bible says about it. Murray Rae surveys the Gospel accounts, looks at the resurrection as the fulfillment of God's Old Testament promises to Israel, and examines how the resurrection reshaped the life of the apostle Paul and informed his theology. He explores how resurrection influences our understanding of Christ, salvation, the future, mission, the church, and the unfolding purpose of history. Attention is given to its implications for Christian living and ethics, the nature of Christian community, and the promises of Christian hope. This is invigorating reading for all who desire greater understanding of participation in the resurrection life made possible through the risen Lord.

  THE HIDDEN LIFE OF PRAYER 
  Prayer is the beating heart of our relationship with God. But why must it be in secret? Why does Jesus insist we close the door when we pray? In this classic guidebook, McIntyre draws from some of the great men of God who have gone before us: Spurgeon, Bonar, Luther, and others to reveal their own lives in prayer and what we can learn from them in order to find a greater commitment to communicating with God. 
  His practical approach exposes the equipment we need to enter a secret place of prayer:A quiet placeA quiet hourA quiet heart 
  Not only that, but he defines and explains the systematic way we can order our time in the “upper room:”WorshipConfessionRequest 
  With such clear guidelines, backed up with Scripture and quotes from prominent Christians, this book will challenge you to go deeper in your time of secret prayer and point you to a rewarding, treasure-filled life in Jesus. 
  “God brings books at their appointed times. The Hidden Life of Prayer arrived late but well-timed. This little jewel-strewn tapestry has done for me at 64 what Bounds’ Power Through Prayer did at 34. I could be ashamed that I need inspiration for the highest privilege. But I choose to be thankful.” —John Piper, author of A Hunger for God: Desiring God Through Fasting and Prayer 
  “Every time I read this book, the Lord uses it to deepen my prayer life and encourage my faith. I strongly recommend it!” —Wayne Grudem, author of Systematic Theology

  "Walk in the woods with me." 
   
   
   
  That's the invitation award-winning author Lore Ferguson Wilbert extends to listeners in The Understory. 
   
   
   
  On this journey, Wilbert shares her story of alienation and disorientation after years of religious and political unrest in the evangelical church. In doing so, she looks to an unlikely place—the forest—to learn how to live and even thrive when everything seems to be falling apart. What can we learn from eroding soil, the decomposition process, the time it takes to grow lichen, the beauty of fiddlehead ferns, the regeneration of self-sowing seeds, and walking through the mud? Here, among the understory of the forest, Wilbert discovers rich metaphors for living a rooted and flourishing life within the complex ecosystems of our world. Her tenderness and honesty will help listeners grieve, remember, hope, and press on with resilience.

  A Non-Anxious Presence - How a...

  For much of recent history individuals and institutions could plan, execute, and flourish with their visions of a better world. Volatile, complex forces could be addressed and confronted with planning and management. But crisis is a great revealer. It knocks us off our thrones. It uncovers the weaknesses in our strategies and brings to light our myths and idols. Our past strategies run aground, smashed by unpredictable and chaotic waves. Yet in the midst of the chaos of a crisis comes opportunity. The history of the church tells us that crisis always precedes renewal, and the framework of renewal offers us new ways forward. A Non-Anxious Presence shows how that renewal happens and offers churches and leaders strategic ways to awaken the Church and see our culture changed for Christ.
