The book of 2 Chronicles details the reigns of the kings of Judah and Israel from Solomon to the Babylonian captivity. There were quite a few good kings of Judah, although several evil kings of Judah in the line of succession provoked the Lord to anger. Good kings destroyed idols, groves, and heathen gods, and took away the high places of worship throughout the cities and the land. Evil kings set up new idols, groves, and heathen gods, worshipped them in high places, and even brought idolatrous practices into the House of God in Jerusalem. These histories teach us about man's relationship to God as they function as a mirror through which we can gain insights into life in society today! Little has changed in the millennia between then and now! Society has been on a slow decline away from the Lord for all of that time!

Köstenberger, one of evangelicalism's brightest scholars, along with Justin Taylor, a well-known leader and blogger, this book offers readers a day-by-day guide to Jesus's final week on earth.

The Knowing the Bible series is a new resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God’s Word. Each 12-week study leads participants through one book of the Bible and is made up of four basic components: (1) Reflection questions designed to help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) “Gospel Glimpses” highlighting the gospel of grace throughout the book; (3) “Whole-Bible Connections” showing how any given passage connects to the Bible’s overarching story of redemption culminating in Christ; and (4) “Theological Soundings” identifying how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture. With contributions from a wide array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God’s grace on each and every page of the Bible. In this accessible study, pastor and author Greg Gilbert examines the message of James, exploring the book’s difficult teachings on wealth, anointing with oil, prayer, healing, and the relationship between faith and works. Through clear exposition of the biblical text and challenging application questions, Gilbert helps readers rightly understand James as a stirring exhortation to fruitfulness, ultimately written to remind Christians of the necessary connection between genuine faith and heartfelt obedience.
