Showing titles in Meditations

The Psalms are a unique portion of the Old Testament—150 songs and poems—that cover a wide range of emotions to express the heart and essence of humanity. Written over several centuries by multiple authors, these Psalms illustrate the theology and worship of the Israelites, imparting lessons through the ages. This reading uses the King James Version of the Bible—a translation whose language is praised as some of the greatest poetry ever written—and is enhanced by actor Michael York's performance.

In Inspired Imperfection, Gregory A. Boyd adds another counterintuitive and provocative thesis to his corpus. While conservative scholars and pastors have struggled for years to show that the Bible is without errors, Boyd considers this a fool's errand. Instead, he says, we should embrace the mistakes and contradictions in Scripture, for they show that God chose to use fallible humans to communicate timeless truths.

In this thoughtful and inspiring book, Daniel Kooman, the award-winning director of She Has a Name and Dream: Find Your Significance, shares the creation story in a way you have never experienced it before. Breath of Life examines three breaths from God that shaped humanity: the first breath that brought humanity to life; a second breath that redeemed humanity from sin; and a third breath that continues to shape the course of human history as we know it.

Some people find the Old Testament to be confusing, out of date, and essentially replaced by the New Testament. They are missing out. The Old Testament offers us a grand narrative that reveals God's work, God's purposes, and God's wisdom. Christopher J. H. Wright fits the pieces together and shows us the coherent whole. Using seven key sentences drawn straight from the Old Testament, he connects the dots and points us toward Jesus.

Christians, rightly called “people of the cross,” look to Jesus’s death and resurrection as the central points of his earthly mission. But in order to understand more fully the person and work of Christ, it’s important for believers to fix their minds on his entire ministry — his life, death, resurrection, and ongoing ministry today — and not solely on his work on the cross.

Mark Scandrette shows how the Beatitudes invite us into nine new postures for life. Instead of living in fear, we can choose radical love. It's often assumed that the good life is only for the most wealthy, attractive, and powerful. Poor, sad, and suffering people are left out. But the ninefold path of the Beatitudes is for everyone. Whatever your story, whatever your struggle, wherever you find yourself, this way is available to you.

In God Speaks Through Wombs, Drew Jackson explores the first eight chapters of Luke's Gospel in a new poetic register. These are declarative poems, faithfully proclaiming the gospel story in all its liberative power.

"I Salmi" (comunemente detto anche "Salterio") forma parte dell'insieme di testi poetici o sapienziali dell'"Antico Testamento" della "Bibbia" Cristiana. Si tratta di inni, normalmente accompagnati da strumenti musicali, di lode, meditazione e pentimento. Ogni salmo viene considerato come un capitolo a sé stante del testo, che ne contiene in totale 150 (la Chiesa Ortodossa ne contempla uno in più). In questo volume, di un progetto complessivo di tre pubblicazioni che andranno a coprire l'opera integrale, vengono proposti i primi 50 componimenti del "Salterio".

O salmista confirma a sentença precedente, demonstrando a grandeza de Deus à luz do maravilhoso caráter de suas obras. Ele não fala da essência secreta e misteriosa de Deus que enche céu e terra, mas das manifestações de seu poder, sabedoria, bondade e justiça, que são claramente exibidos, embora sejam tão vastos para que nosso tacanho entendimento os apreenda.
