Many donkeys are born with a dark marking down their back and across their shoulders that makes the shape of a cross. Legend has it that the donkey that carried Jesus on Palm Sunday was the first donkey to receive this marking when Jesus died on the cross. This is a story of how that might have happened to a little donkey named Jubilee. Jubilee is changed forever when Jesus chooses her to carry him to Jerusalem on Palm Sunday and as she follows him around the last week of his life here on earth. Most important in this story is the true story of Jesus and the good news of Resurrection Sunday!

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Anyone who has sought the meaning of life will find this simple, yet profound story meaningful because it answers the eternal question with a Christian principal recognized universally - if we do not live to serve others, life has no real meaning. Dominique the Donkey is a tale about a wild donkey whose destiny is to carry the Virgin Mary to Bethlehem, and 33 years later, to watch her son, Dominic, carry Jesus triumphantly into Jerusalem. Dominique is the hero of her own journey to Diamond Peak, the highest of the sacred mountains in the Land of the Sands, where she seeks her wildest dream - to find the meaning of her life. She is sidetracked by the plight of Mary and Joseph on their way to Bethlehem. Her sympathy for the mother-to-be outweighs her wild nature, and she carries Mary to Bethlehem, learning the value of service. After the Holy family returns to Nazareth, Joseph releases her, and she continues on her journey of discovery to Diamond Peak, only to realize that the meaning of her life is not to be found there. Dominique returns to her wild herd outside Jerusalem to teach them what she has learned. There, she watches her son lose himself in service to Jesus by carrying Him into Jerusalem. As the mother and son watch while Jesus is crucified, Dominique comes to a full understanding of her journey, and the meaning of her life. At the crucifixion, Dominique and her son are rewarded for their service when the cross casts a shadow across their backs, a mark which donkeys have borne ever since. Children will enjoy Dominique the Donkey as it makes the Bible stories of Mary and Joseph on their way to Bethlehem, and of Jesus making his triumphant entrance into Jerusalem, more engaging through an animal's perspective. Parents will find the story useful in teaching their children about the value of a life of service, at the same time reminding themselves of the importance of the promise, "My yoke is easy, and my burden, light."

Explores ancient beliefs about life after death, highlighting the fact that the early Christians' belief about the afterlife belonged firmly on the Jewish spectrum, while introducing several new mutations and sharper definitions, forcing readers to view the Easter narratives not simply as rationalizations, but as accounts of two actual events: the empty tomb of Jesus and his "appearances." Simultaneous. Hardcover no longer available.

“... You will see a young donkey tied there that no one has ever ridden.” Bestselling author Anthony DeStefano begins his creative telling of the beloved Bible story of Christ’s triumphant entry by introducing the young donkey who has yet to realize his important mission. The lowly creature believes he can do nothing noble, but that’s before he meets the Master... Then Jesus said to the donkey, “It’s time that you knew About the great thing That you’re destined to do...” He hears the sad donkey cry, “Just leave me alone and cast me aside. I’m just a poor donkey that no one can ride.” Richard Cowdrey’s colorful illustrations pair beautifully with Anthony’s charming rhymes. Together, they bring this timeless story of the donkey who carries Jesus into Jerusalem to a joyful finish. While especially appropriate as an Easter gift, this year-round story is for all time and for young and old alike.

The Language of Creation is a commentary on the primeval stories from the book of Genesis. It is often difficult to recognize the spiritual wisdom contained in these narratives because the current scientific worldview is deeply rooted in materialism. Therefore, instead of looking at these stories through the lens of modern academic disciplines, such as sociology, psychology, or the physical sciences, this commentary attempts to interpret the Bible from its own cosmological perspective.By contemplating the ancient biblical model of the universe, The Language of Creation demonstrates why these stories are foundational to western science and civilization. It rediscovers the archaic cosmic patterns of heaven, earth, time, and space, and sees them repeated at different levels of reality. These fractal-like structures are first encountered in the narrative of creation and then in the stories of the Garden of Eden, Cain and Abel, and the flood. The same patterns are also revealed in the visions of Ezekiel, the book of Daniel, and the miracles of Moses. The final result of this contemplation is a vision of the cosmos centered on the role of human consciousness in creation.

What is Jubilee? How could it transform our understanding of the world today -- and of how God calls us to live in it? At the heart of Old Testament law is a revolutionary concept that, if applied today, could transform our economy and world. Jesus himself claimed that his ministry would bring its fulfilment, transforming the world. Uniting social justice, creation care, equality and worship, jubilee remains a radical challenge, thousands of years later. This exciting collection engages with this challenge and offers ideas and inspiration for disciples today. It brings together rigorous theological thought and practical experience from voices from around the world. Its chapters reflect on issues of poverty in its different dimensions and discuss some of the challenges that face churches, Christian organisations and individual Christians in responding to them. The authors each bring their unique context and perspectives which challenge us to go beyond viewing the jubilee ordinances as simple rules and help us to begin to understand the redemptive and restorative power of the jubilee principles for us today.

"A masterpiece of contemporary Bible translation and commentary."—Los Angeles Times Book Review, Best Books of 1999 Acclaimed for its masterful new translation and insightful commentary, The David Story is a fresh, vivid rendition of one of the great works in Western literature. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel. But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody. Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is the creation of a literary artist comparable to the Shakespeare of the history plays.
