Jesus Christ is arguably the most famous man who ever lived. His image adorns countless churches, icons, and paintings. He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art. Everyone can conjure an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality? This question continues to fascinate. Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men. He may even have had short hair.

2019 Best Book Awards, Winner in Religion: Christianity 2018 Catholic Press Association, 3rd Place in Scripture: Popular Studies 2018 Independent Press Award, Distinguished Favorite: Religion Non-Fiction In Jesus Approaches, Elizabeth Kelly shares vivid stories of New Testament women whose encounters with Jesus freed them to flourish in life. The stories are supplemented with moving accounts from her own life, and from the lives of women like you, to demonstrate that sometimes the best way to find healing, strength, and wholeness in Christ is, ironically, to lead with vulnerability and openness. Ultimately, Jesus Approaches teaches that finding the fullness of life for which you were created begins with bringing your brokenness to the Lord.

Everyone, Christians included, knows what it’s like to feel isolated and alone. We’ve all wondered if anyone really understands us or truly cares about our lives. The good news is that we aren’t alone, and the gospel tells us why: Jesus, the Son of God, came to earth to be forever united with his people—to be one of us. In fact, he has so united himself with us that the Bible says we are literally “in” him. Far from being alone and lost, the Incarnation changes everything for the Christian. Writing with everyday readers in mind, Elyse Fitzpatrick fleshes out the practical implications of our union with Christ and gives us confidence that we are not alone in this approachable and applicable devotional book.

Statistics for addictions and moral failures are shockingly similar between Christians and non-Christians alike. This is disturbing because one who submits their life to Christ should have no need for a false idol such as alcohol, drugs, sex, porn, etc. The problem isn't with the freedom Jesus offers, but rather our application of that freedom.Jesus Frees Us challenges you to consider what it means to be set free. What are you freed from and why? Discover the ways and reasons that Christ has redeemed you and learn how to walk in that freedom. Join me as I reveal how I've broken free from my chains of bondage through Christ along with numerous testimonies of others who are now living in victory over their flesh and the sins that used to enslave them.

As Jesus faced his final days before his crucifixion, he offered a prayer (in John 17:23) that all believers in the future could be perfectly one "as God and Christ are one." Yet two thousand years later we see Christians divided by doctrine, denominational structures, political interests and contentions over moral and social values. Our present division seems to indicate that we are in dire need for reflection and deep soul-searching. "Realizing Jesus" strives to be the hoped-for wake-up call and attempts to shed light upon the numerous mysteries and unanswered questions that traditional doctrines have ignored or glossed over. Questions such as: Why was Jesus praying "to let this cup pass" on the night before his crucifixion? Why would Jesus pray to avoid the cross if his only purpose was to die? Why was Jesus only a carpenter in Joseph's shop, when both Joseph and Mary, as well as their relatives, including the parents of John the Baptist, KNEW that Jesus was the prophesied Messiah and King to sit on the throne of David? Why did Jesus' family turn on him and even question his sanity? Why was Jesus still unmarried at the age of 30? Why is John the Baptist thought to be a saint when he never followed Jesus and eventually went his separate way?*If Jesus was only to die on the cross, why did he ask God to forgive his executioners, saying: "they know not what they do?" What did they do? Weren't they supposed to crucify Jesus?"Realizing Jesus" answers these questions and so much more. It will take you beyond the constraints of the doctrinal Jesus and bring you to the realization of so much more about him. It is the Jesus the Bible truly reveals.
