Surprised by Jesus (Dane C Ortlund )
When God-in-the-flesh showed up twenty centuries ago in Palestine, the religious PhDs rejected him and the prostitutes and social outcasts flocked to him. Why? Because the open welcome of divine grace that Jesus offers, open to anyone who would simply leave their moral resume at home, is not predictable. It is not safe. It is subversive... In this book, Dane Ortlund reflects on this subversive grace as it uniquely emerges in each of the four Gospel accounts. In each Gospel, the message and mission of Jesus is deeply surprising: In Matthew, we see the surprise of disobedient obedience. In Mark, we see the surprise of the king undergoing the fate of a criminal. In Luke, we see the surprise of the insiders becoming outsiders and the outsiders becoming insiders. In John, we see the surprise of the Creator of the universe becoming one of his own creatures. Such surprises confound our law-marinated hearts. But the good news that Jesus won with his own blood will not be tamed. This good news is defiant. This book exists to exult in this good news and the scandalous mercy Jesus loves to pour out on needy sinners—on people like you and me. Review ‘Dane Ortlund’s Surprised by Jesus is a very helpful guide to a gospel-centered understanding of Christianity. Drawing from material gleaned from all four Gospels, Ortlund presents us with the compelling picture of ‘subversive grace’ ― so different from the pale and timid imitation of pallid, anemic religion. Read this book and soak in the gospel of grace!’ --Josh Moody, Senior Pastor College Church, Wheaton, author of No Other Gospel ‘The world wants justice and, truth to tell, the church often wants that too. In this book, Dane Ortlund makes the case from the Gospels that what the church and the world to whom she witnesses needs is grace. Grace is counterintuitive, beyond price, and yet totally free. Left to ourselves, we hate it. We see it as demeaning. We regard it as witnessing to our moral corruption and weakness. Yet grace is God’s way of salvation as revealed in the acts and sayings of Jesus in the four Gospels. This book is that strangest of things: the heartfelt rebuke which brings so much encouragement, freedom, and joy. Well worth reading.’ --Carl R. Trueman, Grove City College, Philadelphia ‘I love the goal of Dane Ortlund’s Surprised by Jesus: to fill our heart tanks with “the high-octane grace that takes our conscience by the scruff of the neck and breathes new life into us with a pardon so scandalous that we cannot help but be changed”. This is the kind of grace that makes disciples so love the Savior that they will give their lives for his glory.’ --Bryan Chapell, President, Covenant Theological Seminar

In this magisterial and best-selling book, John Stott unpacks the significance of Christ's cross and answers objections commonly brought against biblical teaching on the atonement. Stott will help you discover how Jesus himself understood the cross, and how 'Christ in our place' is at the heart of its meaning.

This modern classic combines excellent biblical exposition, and a characteristically thoughtful study of Christian belief, with a searching call to the church to live under the cross.

The Crucified God (Jurgen Moltmann)
SECONDHAND

Arguably the most powerful of Moltmann's books. The Crucified God is a seminal work on the crucifixion and its significance. The book takes death despair and dreadfulness the dark side of the human condition with total seriousness and relates these to a liberating hope of redemption through divine agony and suffering. Influential for many years, especially with political and liberation theologians, but also much more widely, the book represents a concentrated blast of hard-edged doctrinal reflection and - now reissued with a Preface by the author's leading British interpretor - will continue to inspire upcoming generations who take seriously the life-changing notion that 'God was in Christ.'

Review

"This is Jürgen Moltmann's best and therefore most important book. He has substantially changed the central thrust of his theology without sacrificing its most vital element, its passionate concern for alleviation of the world's suffering." -Langdon Gilkey "The Crucified God rewards, as it demands, the reader's patient and open-minded attention, for its theme is nothing other than the "explosive presence" of the sighting and liberating Spirit of God in the midst of human life." -The Review of Books and Religion

The Day Approaching (Amir Tsarfati)
Are You Noticing the Signs of the Times? In the Bible, Jesus spoke about the signs that would make it clear His return is near. What are those signs? And are they evident today? As a Jewish native Israeli who is a Christian, Amir Tsarfati has a distinct perspective that weaves biblical history, current events, and Bible prophecy together to shine light on the mysteries about the end times. From his vantage point in the Middle East and through careful Bible study, Amir points to evidence that informs us the return of the Lord is imminent. In The Day Approaching, you will learn... God's plans for the world, Israel, the church, and you that the signs of Christ's return are visible all around us about the smoke screen of deception that will lure people away from truth how even now God is revealing Himself to people and changing their hearts of the wonders that await us in Jesus' future millennial kingdom As you seek hope and clarity about earth's final days, let the Bible alone be the resource you turn to for answers.

The Day the Revolution Began (Tom Wright)
n The Day the Revolution Began Tom Wright invites you to consider the full meaning of the event at the heart of the Christian faith – Jesus’ crucifixion. As he did in his acclaimed Surprised by Hope, Wright once again challenges commonly held beliefs, this time arguing that the Protestant Reformation did not go far enough in reshaping our understanding of the Cross. With his characteristic rigour and incisiveness, he goes back to the New Testament to show that Jesus’ death not only releases us from the guilt and power of sin, but is nothing less than the beginning of a world-wide revolution that continues to this day – a revolution that creates and energizes a movement responsible for restoring and reconciling the whole of God’s creation. The Day the Revolution Began will take you to a new level in your appreciation of the meaning of Jesus’ sacrifice: opening up its powerful and amazing implications, inspiring you with a renewed sense of purpose and hope, and reminding you of the crucial role you can play in the world-transforming movement that Jesus started.

The Desert and the City (Ray Simpson)
Lent is a time to refocus our lives on what is eternally important. Many early Christians entered the deserts of the Middle East in order to live the lives of God-filled simplicity. They fired the imagination of British and Irish people, who then chose deserts of their own – isolated places in which they could devote themselves to prayer and gain spiritual strength and wisdom. A desert experience can also take place in a busy town or city, because it is essentially an inner experience of the soul. Ray Simpson’s Lent group study offers us the opportunity to walk with Christ through his desert – not just the wilderness of Judaea, but also the city of Jerusalem, where he was tried and tested, and outside which he died. By walking with him, we shall confront our own weaknesses and strengths, as well as his

The Lost Message of Paul (Steve Chalke)
We have misunderstood Paul, badly. We have read his words through our own set of assumptions and values. We need to begin with the ideas that informed Paul's worldview and culture. Our goal is simple – to see things the way he saw them rather than the way we see them. What if the whole idea of 'original sin' was never part of Paul's thinking at all? What if the idea that we are saved by faith in Christ, as Luther so strongly argued, was based on a mistranslation of Paul's words, and even more seriously on a misunderstanding of Paul's thinking? Was Luther – and Calvin who followed him – simply terribly wrong? 'The tragedy,' writes Steve Chalke, 'is that over the centuries the Church has time and again failed to communicate, or even to understand, the core of Paul's message. Although Paul has often been presented as the champion of exclusion, he was the very opposite. He was the great includer; a revolutionary who saw a new inclusive world dawning and gave his life to help bring it in.'
