Still, they have much in common. Robert Flaherty has collected quotations from the three children of Abraham, primarily from the Hebrew Scriptures, the New Testament, and the Qur’an, that emphasize what the three have in common. For each day of the year, there is ...

Good Book is what happens when a regular guy actually reads the book on which his religion, his culture, and his world are based.

Why does God love bald men so much? Is Samson really that stupid? Good Book is an irreverent, enthralling journey through the world's most important work of literature.

NOT UNDER THE LAW explores the relationship between Christianity and the Old Covenant Law of Moses. What does the Bible mean when it says that we are not under Law but under grace? Does that mean Christians are exempt from following the 10 commandments? There are over 2000 commandments in the Bible. How do we know which of those commandments apply to us today? New Testament scripture has a lot to say about this subject. Let's explore it!

I recently read a statistic by the American Bible Society that only 30% of Christians actually read their Bibles on a regular basis. For many Christians, their morning devotional time, if they even have one, consists of reading a quick Bible verse or two. On New Year’s Eve, pastors hand out pamphlets that lay out a daily reading plan to read through the whole Bible in one year. Most Christians can’t even do that. But I believe most, if not all, Christians, desire to study the Bible more; they just don’t have the motivation. They have heard all the Bible stories and countless sermons. ...

In The Bible Jesus Read, Yancey challenges the perception that the New Testament is more important than the Old. Writing with keen insight into the human condition and God’s provision for it, he sets off on a personal journey through the parts we most like to keep at arm’s length—Job, Deuteronomy, Psalms, Ecclesiastes, and the Prophets—and he asks us to bring our own questions, concerns, and our openness to the wonders of God.

Though Christians affirm that the Old Testament bears witness to Christ, how the Old Testament writers did this is a matter of extensive debate. Furthermore, Christian biblical scholars also debate the degree to which contemporary interpreters of the Bible can follow the hermeneutics of the New Testament authors in using the Old Testament to point to the person and work of Jesus Christ. Five Views on Christ in the Old Testament is the first book to bring together in conversation the major views on how the Old Testament points to Christ.
