  The book of John reveals Jesus Christ as the Son of God, the One who is the divine self-expression and fullness of God's glory. John was a prophet, a seer, a lover, an evangelist, an author, an apostle, and a son of thunder.
  
  
   
  
  
  While the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke provide the history of Christ, John's Gospel unveils the mystery of Christ. We experience Jesus as the Lamb of God, the Good Shepherd, the Kind Forgiver, the Tender Healer, the Compassionate Intercessor, and the Great I Am. Full of miracles, living truths, and wondrous works, the Gospel of John brings a heavenly perspective filled with inspiring revelations in every verse.
  
  
   
  
  
  To read John's Gospel is to encounter Jesus. Our lives will never be the same once we enter the great magnificence of his presence and sit enthroned with him.
  
  
   
  
  
  "All you thirsty ones, come to me! Come to me and drink! Believe in me so that rivers of living water will burst out from within you, flowing from your innermost being, just like the Scripture says!"
  
  
  John 7:37–38

  The Essential City of God - A...

  Augustine is the most influential thinker of Western Christianity, and City of God is arguably his greatest work. 
   
  After the sack of Rome in 410, many Romans despaired about the future of the empire. Critics of Christianity blamed the devastation on the empire's conversion to the faith. City of God is Augustine's monumental response to these challenges, developed through analysis of Roman society, engagement with classical philosophy, and extended commentary on Scripture.  
   
  These sprawling discussions yield Augustine's theology of the two cities, according to which all people are divided into two communities according to their ultimate loves, whether of God or of self. Christians are called to love eternal goods over temporal goods even as they seek the peace of the earthly city. 
   
  The length and complexity of City of God make its argument difficult to follow, even for specialists. This resource abridges Augustine's work and makes it accessible for a wide readership. The selections focus on his social and political thought while indicating the larger shape of his work. They are accompanied by explanatory notes, essays on critical and complex topics, and an outline of the entire text. These aids will enable readers to experience Augustine's work for themselves. 
   
  The Essential "City of God" retrieves ancient wisdom for the modern world, offering an enduring vision for faithfulness and hope in times of social instability.

  Encountering Bare-Bones...

  Why do you believe in God? Why do you have faith? Why do you call yourself a Christian? 
  If you don't: Why does it make sense to have faith for those who do? How do they benefit from it? What are the advantages of being a Christian? 
  Several years ago, I sat down to articulate non-churchy answers to those questions from my own practical, hands-on experience of living out my faith for more than 30 years. 
  I started out with a long list of the "benefits" of being a Christian that I've experienced, and I kept distilling the list more and more to eventually just a handful-encompassing themes like loneliness, beauty, the meaning of life, suffering, and the fear of death-all as they relate to God. Early readers recognized those as central and age-old questions of the human condition-universal questions that everyone is trying to answer. 
  Philosophers and theologians have filled thousands of books with thousands of words about these questions, but Encountering Bare-Bones Christianity contains only about 20,000 words on 170 small pages. Why? First, that's just how I write. Second, in this hurried and unfocussed age, I sensed that brevity might be an asset rather than a stumbling block. And third, as "Bare-Bones Christianity" implies, this is about a Christianity stripped down to its essential parts without extraneous confessional and cultural preferences. 
  If you are a Christian, this book will powerfully remind you why you believed in the first place. If you're not, perhaps it will help you understand why others believe and what that might look like in your own life.
