Synopsis

Ice Legends unveils the surprising significance of ice and cold throughout human history, exploring its impact on religion, literature, and culture. It argues that our fascination with icy landscapes and mythical ice creatures reveals fundamental insights into our relationship with nature and belief. The book demonstrates how ice symbolizes purity, destruction, and the unknown, shaping religious practices and literary themes across cultures.

 
The book examines the cultural impact of glacial periods and extreme weather, detailing how these events influenced human migration and societal development. For example, Norse sagas feature frost giants, while Shinto rituals use ice for purification, illustrating ice's diverse symbolism. Ice Legends progresses through sections that address ice symbolism in global religious traditions, literary depictions of icy realms, and historical events influenced by extreme cold.

 
Supported by archaeological evidence, religious texts, and historical records, Ice Legends provides a unique perspective on the cultural significance of cold environments. This interdisciplinary approach combines historical analysis with religious studies and literary criticism.

 
By exploring how cultures have perceived and responded to cold environments, the book offers insights relevant to contemporary discussions about climate change and environmental stewardship.

    The Prayer of Manasseh is a short work of only 15 verses that purports to be the penitential prayer of the Judean king Manasseh, who is recorded in the Bible as one of the most idolatrous (2 Kings 21:1-18). However, after having been taken captive by the Assyrians, he prays for mercy (2 Chronicles 33:10-17) and turns from his idolatrous ways. (Summary by Wikipedia)

    Internationally recognized psychologist Diane Langberg has come face to face with the crushing trauma of sexual abuse, trafficking, domestic abuse, and rape—and its cover-up. 
     
     
     
    Even more tragic, she has encountered it all within Christian communities and the church. 
     
     
     
    As a highly respected trauma scholar and psychologist working in the United States and around the world for more than fifty years, she envisions a better way. 
     
     
     
    In When the Church Harms God's People, Langberg unveils what she has learned about how churches cause harm and why Christian communities often foster unhealthy leaders who end up hurting rather than protecting God's people. She also offers hope for the future, describing how churches can reflect Christ not just in what they teach but also in how they care for themselves and others. 
     
     
     
    This book is an invaluable tool for leaders and laypeople alike who want to help the church resist abuses of power and become a safe place for survivors.

    A Biblical Theology of Sanctification from Genesis to Revelation
    God's holiness and the sanctification of his people are key themes throughout the biblical narrative. In this addition to the Short Studies in Biblical Theology series, Marny Köstenberger explores the topic of sanctification—being set apart by God for holiness—which is the impetus for a believer's God-given mission. 
    Surveying the Bible from beginning to end, Köstenberger teaches that sanctification is a trinitarian enterprise: God creates humanity in his holy image, Christ delivers them from sin, and the Spirit applies the benefits of Christ's saving work, restoring the original image in Christ. At the core, a believer's union with Christ, and their experience of abiding in him, powerfully propels their growth in holiness.
    
    - Short Studies in Biblical Theology: Part of a series designed to give readers accessible volumes on God's word—other volumes include Resurrection Hope and the Death of Death; The Sabbath as Rest and Hope for the People of God; and more 
    - Analyzes the Word "Sanctification" in Both Hebrew and Greek
    - Helps Readers Understand How the Old and New Testaments Relate to Each Other
