How did the shift from matriarchy to patriarchy come about? In fascinating detail, Merlin Stone tells us the story of the Goddess who reigned supreme in the Near and Middle East.

God took David from the fields where he followed the sheep to become the ruler of Israel. He was overlooked by his father, yet chosen by God. He carried the dream to be king from the day Samuel anointed him, but he did not feel worthy to marry the king's daughter after defeating Goliath. David experienced many amazing moments in his life, yet he also endured many traumas. He was the hero of Israel and then became the hunted villain. He went from leading the armies of Israel to being pursued by the same.

The thoughts about what is in “it” for Jesus came to me when this verse was read during a worship service in my local fellowship. I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance (Ephesians 1:18). I found it amazing to think that believers, his holy people, could be his rich and glorious inheritance. Probably like most other Jesus followers, my focus has always been on what is in it for me.

Before the 10 Commandments, there were questions. Join Moses as he wrestles with whether God exists, whether beauty, morality, and truth are illusions, whether Zeus and Ra are actually atheists, and how he’s going to carry these two massive stone tablets down the mountain all by himself. Part novel, part philosophical debate, part mythological war of the gods, part irreverent screenplay about fighting demon-snakes—this book is the odd genre-mashup you can’t quite look away from.

Farming is one of the oldest professions. The knowledge of cultivating crops and growing food was necessary to survival. It was a set of skills that everyone knew and were able to translate into other areas of their lives, including their soul. God still uses the principles of farming to allow us to know Him better and grow into the person He wants us to become. In Jesus Was a Farmer Troy Richards invites us to explore how the practices of farming can apply to our faith and how we can grow and cultivate our soul in many of the same ways we grow and cultivate seeds into healthy plants.

Wilson's Jesus: A Life, and John Shelby Spong's Born of a Woman.

If you’ve ever listened to music created by Cellus Hamilton, you are aware that he is much more than a rapper. His lyrics are multidimensional, that of a scholarly visionary.

Jeremy Everett, a noted advocate for the hungry and poor, calls Christians to work across ideological divides....
