The Lord Project


Book Description

How does God relate to us, what does He want from us, and how do we relate to God? Those questions and many more are woven throughout the many books of the Bible in the form of histories, parables, poetry, stories, and theological discourse. John M Masciale draws on his expertise writing software to pore through the intricacies of the Bible in The Lord Project. Using computer search algorithms, the author ties together the threads of the Bible on a variety of themes, searching for significant words around the phrase the Lord as well as the significant words surrounding Father, Jesus, Christ, and Spirit. Much more than a topical Bible or a concordance, this book compiles verses about God’s nature and other essential themes. Chapters are organized topically, so you can focus on the subjects you care about the most. No matter what your education level or profession, if you are a student of the Bible, want to understand its teachings, and move closer to the Lord, this book will help you achieve your goals.

Radical


Book Description

New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
