Book Description
The positioning of this book JWJ centers around how, after surviving multiple years of uncertainty as a world, we are all reprioritizing what is important to us--thinking of our life's Journey overall as an ongoing adventure with a purpose. As humans, we must live the life we were created for, and we ALL have the power to make a difference in this world right where we are, with Jesus at the helm. You will read about the amazing things that God has done both in my life as well as many others to not only provide and sustain us but to BLESS us in both good and seemingly bad situations. This book's focus is primarily on hard times because we all go through them, and when we do, we typically get side-blinded by being in the moment, and we forget to look for the light at the end of the tunnel. And that's an amazingly hard place to be...BUT THERE IS ALWAYS LIGHT. Let's prepare for all things unknown by staying positive now and allowing God to intervene and support the then. Your relationship with God can make it a very different experience because truth is, we don't always know the beauty that can result from difficult and seemingly bad situations--but GOD DOES! Read on and be inspired, and more importantly, let this inspiration equip you to face life's challenges with the joy in knowing that God has a better plan for your life. Everyone is given different challenges, and some are directly based on the choices we've faced and decisions we have made with our gift of free will. Find true purpose and your legacy by building your relationship with the living God today, and let your Journey begin. Jesus came so you might enjoy your life most abundantly (John 10:10).

Author: Amy-Jill Levine Publisher: Harper Collins ISBN: 006219819X Category : Religion Languages : en Pages : 275
Book Description
The renowned biblical scholar, author of The Misunderstood Jew, and general editor for The Jewish Annotated New Testament interweaves history and spiritual analysis to explore Jesus’ most popular teaching parables, exposing their misinterpretations and making them lively and relevant for modern readers. Jesus was a skilled storyteller and perceptive teacher who used parables from everyday life to effectively convey his message and meaning. Life in first-century Palestine was very different from our world today, and many traditional interpretations of Jesus’ stories ignore this disparity and have often allowed anti-Semitism and misogyny to color their perspectives. In this wise, entertaining, and educational book, Amy-Jill Levine offers a fresh, timely reinterpretation of Jesus’ narratives. In Short Stories by Jesus, she analyzes these “problems with parables,” taking readers back in time to understand how their original Jewish audience understood them. Levine reveals the parables’ connections to first-century economic and agricultural life, social customs and morality, Jewish scriptures and Roman culture. With this revitalized understanding, she interprets these moving stories for the contemporary reader, showing how the parables are not just about Jesus, but are also about us—and when read rightly, still challenge and provoke us two thousand years later.

Book Description

Book Description
"This is the first commentary on the Gospel of Mark to systematically apply a multidisciplinary approach, called 'socio-literary method.' Myers integrates literary criticism, socio-historical exegesis, and political hermeneutics in his investigation of Mark--the oldest story of Jesus--as 'manifesto of radical discipleship'."--

Book Description
Advent, says Fleming Rutledge, is not for the faint of heart. As the midnight of the Christian year, the season of Advent is rife with dark, gritty realities. In this book, with her trademark wit and wisdom, Rutledge explores Advent as a time of rich paradoxes, a season celebrating at once Christ’s incarnation and his second coming, and she masterfully unfolds the ethical and future-oriented significance of Advent for the church.
