Book Description
This is a brand new edition of an old favourite, printed on a fine quality paper and with a luxurious gold-blocked soft-touch cover, and including cloth page marker. There are morning and evening readings for every day of the year covering all four Gospels, each reading with an additional passage suggested for further reading. Ryle remains a favourite: Dale Ralph Davis says, "There's a reason we keep digging up Ryle. His writing is always clear (a nineteenth-century man who writes short sentences!), driven (he's always going after the jugular vein of your soul), and focussed (he just can't keep his eyes off Jesus)." Get a copy and let the nourishment begin - and pick up a spare to put in your guest room. This superb book has a limited production run: get yours now while stocks remain!

Book Description
How Baptism and the Eucharist Shaped Early Christian Understandings of Jesus Long before the Gospel writers put pen to papyrus, the earliest Christians participated in the powerful rituals of baptism and the Lord's Supper, which fundamentally shaped their understanding of God, Christ, and the world in which they lived. In this volume, a respected biblical scholar and teacher explores how cultural anthropology and ritual studies elucidate ancient texts. Charles Bobertz offers a liturgical reading of the Gospel of Mark, arguing that the Gospel is a narrative interpretation of early Christian ritual. This fresh, responsible, and creative proposal will benefit scholars, professors, and students. Its ecclesial and pastoral ramifications will also be of interest to church leaders and pastors.

Reading the Gospels Wisely
Author : Jonathan T. Pennington
Publisher : Baker Books
Page : 424 pages
File Size : 48,93 MB
Release : 2012-07-01
Category : Religion
ISBN : 1441238700
Book Description
This textbook on how to read the Gospels well can stand on its own as a guide to reading this New Testament genre as Scripture. It is also ideally suited to serve as a supplemental text to more conventional textbooks that discuss each Gospel systematically. Most textbooks tend to introduce students to historical-critical concerns but may be less adequate for showing how the Gospel narratives, read as Scripture within the canonical framework of the entire New Testament and the whole Bible, yield material for theological reflection and moral edification. Pennington neither dismisses nor duplicates the results of current historical-critical work on the Gospels as historical sources. Rather, he offers critically aware and hermeneutically intelligent instruction in reading the Gospels in order to hear their witness to Christ in a way that supports Christian application and proclamation.
