Why do three Gospels tell the same story—yet speak with such distinct voices? For centuries, scholars, pastors, and Bible readers alike have wrestled with the mystery of the Synoptic Gospels.

This book confronts that enigma with academic rigor and spiritual depth—offering a guide not just to understanding the Gospels, but to seeing the life of Jesus through three inspired lenses. Behind the familiar verses lies a complex literary and theological tapestry. In The ...

From Genesis to Revelation, the image of the shepherd stands as one of the most enduring and beloved symbols in all of Scripture.

Through engaging teaching, rich meditations, personal reflections, poetry, and practical questions for study or discussion, Geoffrey Schmitt brings the shepherd theme to life in ways that are deeply meaningful and spiritually enriching.

"My purpose for writing and publishing this material in book form is the same as for producing my two previous books of this nature, Studies in First Peter and Studies in Ephesians (both by The CRA, 2017 & 2020). As the subtitle for each of them says, “Lessons for Personal and Group Study”; and that is my intention for this volume. You can use it to deepen your own understanding of this section of the Bible, or you can use it to teach a group larger than just yourself. I am hoping you will start with the former, and then proceed to the latter. This book is especially designed as a ...

Blessed to Be a Blessing: Discovering God’s Gifts and Sharing Them Freely By Geoffrey Schmitt What does it really mean to be “blessed”? In a world where the word is casually tossed around, this book takes a deeper look at the rich, biblical meaning of blessing—and how God calls us not only to receive it, but to pass it on. Through Scripture, story, poetry, and prayer, Blessed to Be a Blessing explores: The first blessings of creation God’s covenant with Abraham The transforming presence of Christ The surprising power of suffering How our words and actions can bless others The ...

Romans chapter 9 has become a dividing point between competing theologies for years. Calvinistic authors ground much of their interpretation of the Bible and understanding of God's nature and character from this particular chapter. Christians that are unaware of the theological traps they can fall into by blindly following Calvin's theological determinism can result in a distorted view of God's nature and character. The consequence of this is surely problematic when applying a predetermined view of God to the rest of the Bible that the Scriptures simply will not support. This has at times ...

If you have ever had a discussion or debate with an atheist, you know that they often present very challenging assertions. I have engaged with atheists in more than one thousand debates over the last five decades. In every exchange where a challenge to the reliability of the New Testament has been presented, it is by the same claims that have been repeated over and over again since the first and second centuries. None of the modern attempts at impeaching the reliability of the New Testament by modern atheist scholars is different from those first asserted by atheists at the beginning of ...

The Second Book of Enoch (Slavonic Enoch) or "The Book of Secrets or Enoch" is an ancient Jewish spiritual composition. Though named after Enoch, it was not written by the biblical Enoch himself. He is the main character in the story of heavenly ascent, but not the author of the text we have today. Analyzing the medieval manuscripts, scholars estimate the text's composition sometime after the second century CE. This new translation presents the ancient, reconstructed text in modern, easy-to-read English. The primary goal of this new translation was to produce the text of 2 Enoch accessible ...
