    The Message of Proverbs

    The Bible Speaks Today Series

    by David J. Atkinson

    The book of Proverbs is the most practical book in the Bible. Its instruction in the art of living has been long tried and long proven. Its proverbial seeds of discernment are ready to be planted and rooted in the receptive soil of wisdom's hearers today.

    As much as we glean from the surface of Proverbs, there remains still more in its depths. David Atkinson's commentary wonderfully ...

    Themes and Transformations in Old Testament Prophecy

    by Samuel A. Meier

    We meet the prophets of Israel in our own time and in one place--Scripture. So it might seem odd to consider that they are not all the same, these voices from "back then." In fact, the prophets inhabited a time span of hundreds of years and faced events that on their own terms were more convulsive than our 9/11. They were not uniform in their language, their concerns, their personalities, their ...

    The Adolescent Journey

    An Interdisciplinary Approach to Practical Youth Ministry

    by Amy E. Jacober

    Adolescence is a time of individuation--children are slowly finding their identity as adults, separate from their parents and other adult influences. Such a critical time of psychological development is complicated by cultural influences that shape their expectations of adulthood and color how they relate to other people and even God. The task of the youth pastor becomes to help adolescents navigate ...

    Work

    by Fil Anderson, Robert A. Fryling, Craig Glass, and Stephen W. Smith

    Life is not a flow chart. We weren't meant to master it on our own. We weren't meant to be mastered by it either. The discussion guides in the Transformation of a Man's Heart series put us in conversation with God and with one another to see how God shapes and transforms us in the ordinary experiences of our lives. I do, therefore I am? What men do is incredibly important to them. Once they stop ...

    Judaism Before Jesus

    The Events & Ideas That Shaped the New Testament World

    by Anthony J. Tomasino

    Turning the page from Malachi to Matthew, we skip a lot of history.

    In fact, it is something like missing several key episodes in an ongoing television saga. The setting and main plot line are familiar, but new characters have appeared and more recent events and developments are assumed.

    Did anyone record the episodes we missed?

    Fortunately a few did. Their reception wasn't always ...
