    Desiring God's Will

    Aligning Our Hearts with the Heart of God

    The Spiritual Journey

    by David G. Benner
    Foreword by Thomas H. Green

Too often, however, the problem is not that we don't know what God desires for our lives, but rather that we just don't want to do what we already know he wants. How might our wills be changed so that we become both willing and able to do what God asks of us? In Desiring ...

    God is everywhere and always with us. So why don't we experience his presence more? Life is full of distractions, and our 24/7 news cycles and social media drown out the voice of God.

    Paradoxology

    Why Christianity Was Never Meant to Be Simple

    by Krish Kandiah

    It seems that the God of the Christian faith is full of paradoxes:

    • a compassionate God who sanctions genocide
    • an all-powerful God who allows horrific suffering
    • a God who owns everything yet demands so much from his followers
    • a God who is distant and yet present at the same time

    Many of us have big questions about God that the Christian faith seems to ...

    Searching for a Father Who Does Not Fail

    by Margot Starbuck

    "Chosen." "Special." Those are the words Margot Starbuck used to describe herself as a child adopted into a loving family.

    Luke

    Volume 3

    Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture

    Edited by Arthur Just Jr.
    General Editor Thomas C. Oden
