Author Jeremy Pierre and illustrator Cassandra Clark want to awaken children to a brave journey―a journey home. This beautifully illustrated tale traces the theme of God’s presence through the storyline of Scripture. People were created to be with God but lost their nearness to him at the fall. So God sent his Son Jesus Christ to cross that distance, making a way for people to follow him on their own journey home. This book seeks to connect a child’s experience of a hurting world with the larger story of God’s redemption of all things, inspiring them to courage and to joy for their journey. Immersive illustrations and poetic wordplay throughout will keep your child returning to the pages of this book. God With Us presents your children with: One Panoramic Theme: Your children will see in panoramic display one grand theme at the heart of Scripture’s story, from Genesis to Revelation: the presence of God. Jesus Christ: Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is presented to your children as the fulfillment of everything they were made to be. Realism About Life: This is an honest storybook about a fallen world, full of excitement and joy as well as sadness and fear. Luxurious Visuals: The full-color illustrations are intentionally arranged to move between large sweeping landscapes and small arresting moments, evoking in children a sense of awe at the grand scale of life, even in the daily moments. An Experience for the Eyes, Ears, and Heart: Art―in visual, audible, and verbal form―makes beautiful the things that God calls beautiful. This book will capture your children’s imagination. This dramatized, Read-Aloud Edition brings each chapter to life with narration, music, sound effects, and visual cues for children to enjoy.

For many, the struggle over civil rights was not just about lunch counters, waiting rooms, or even access to the vote; it was also about Christian theology. Since both activists and segregationists ardently claimed that God was on their side, racial issues were imbued with religious meanings from all sides. Whether in the traditional sanctuaries of the major white Protestant denominations, in the mass meetings in black churches, or in Christian expressions of interracialism, southerners resisted, pursued, and questioned racial change within various theological traditions. God with Us examines the theological struggle over racial justice through the story of one southern town--Americus, Georgia--where ordinary Americans sought and confronted racial change in the twentieth century. Documenting the passion and virulence of these contestations, this book offers insight into how midcentury battles over theology and race affected the rise of the Religious Right and indeed continue to resonate deeply in American life.

God In Us is a radical representation of the Christian faith for the 21st century. Following the example of the Old Testament prophets and the first-century Christians it overturns received ideas about God. God is not an invisible person 'out there' somewhere, but lives in the human heart and mind as 'the sum of all our values and ideals' guiding and inspiring our lives. This new updated edition includes a foreword by Bishop John Shelby Spong and an afterword from the author.

In every century since the renaissance, English speakers have felt compelled to possess a translation written especially for their own time of this great epic poem, the earliest and most central literary text of Western culture. That need has been thoroughly met in our century by the distinguished poet and classicist Robert Fitzgerald, whose version of "The Iliad" does justice in every way to the fluent vigor and gravity of the Homeric original.

Powell inquires into the direction and thrust of Matthew's Gospel in categories related to pastoral theology rather than systematic theology.

And if the answer is yes, why does it often feel like he's so far away? God isn't surprised by our wariness and distrust. But he has never been content to be misunderstood, either. John's gospel tells us that God sent his Son to explain himself to us-to the distant, the wounded, the skeptical, the afflicted, the ashamed, the betrayed. Walk with Abby as she follows Jesus through the book of John. In thirteen stories, we discover, through Jesus, who God is-and we also see thirteen very different modern-day believers awake to these truths in their own lives. These personal and biblical stories, along with further Scripture and application and discussion questions, will show us that God is for us, not against us. He will draw our hearts back to himself.
