Recent scholarship focused on the role of embodiment within cognition and communication reminds us that part of how we “know” is through our physical senses. We only know the softness of a kitten by touching its fur, or the tastiness of bread by eating. How might this influence our understanding of biblical texts, such as Jesus’s claim, “I am the bread of life,” and the invitation to eat? This study explores the I am sayings of John’s Gospel, their sensory elements providing an imaginative entry into the narrative and contributing tangible value to the participatory theology of the Fourth Gospel.

Jesus took on flesh--he was embodied. And the Gospels use multisensory language to reveal that his teaching, ministry, and interactions with people engaged the senses. Consider the raging storm on the Sea of Galilee, the perfume filling the house as Mary anointed Jesus's feet, the significance of touch as Jesus healed people. Jesus even described himself in sensory terms--as the bread of life, the light of the world, the vine to whom his disciples are connected. Our physical senses are crucial to gaining knowledge of the world around us. Yet when it comes to Bible reading, we often reduce it to a mere cognitive experience, ignoring the Psalmist's invitation to "taste and see that the Lord is good." This book offers a fresh way to read the Gospels with an emphasis on embodiment, focused on a life abiding in Christ. The goal is a greater, more tangible knowledge of God. Jeannine Hanger points to the importance of engaging our physical senses in Bible reading, shows an approach to doing so with an emphasis on sparking the imagination, and looks at how utilizing our primary senses plays out in reading the Gospels. Each chapter includes sensory practices and questions for personal reflection. The book includes a foreword by Grant Macaskill.

The fifth book of the New American Commentary Studies in Bible & Theology series, That You May Know closely examines the theme of eternal salvation in 1 John. No other New Testament book speaks as frequently and explicitly to the believer's confidence in everlasting life. The epistle writer grounds his reader's assurance of salvation on the person and work of Jesus Christ and demonstrates that the believer's lifestyle serves as a vital corroborating support for that assurance. This gives the commentary's author Christopher Bass an opening to further discuss John's emphasis on living righteously and what it truly means to be born of God. Users will find this an excellent extension of the long-respected New American Commentary series.

The Gospel of John is one of the most widely read and cherished books of the Bible. For those seeking to know and grasp the message and theology of John's Gospel, THE GOSPEL OF GRACE AND TRUTH provides a thorough and enlightening introduction. Writing with insight, wit, and clarity, author, professor, and Bible teacher, Michael Halsey, takes the reader on a tour through John's Gospel. After laying the foundation of John's origin, background, narrative structure, style, and features, the theology of John's Gospel is systematically unfolded. This includes chapters devoted to John's teaching on Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, Scripture, Angels, Mankind, the Church, Salvation, and Eschatology. THE GOSPEL OF GRACE AND TRUTH is distinct among books on Johannine theology by recognizing John's theme of grace running throughout his Gospel, as John states in his prologue, "The law came by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ" (John 1:17). THE GOSPEL OF GRACE AND TRUTH provides a valuable resource for any interested reader of John's Gospel, whether seeker, student, or scholar. Dr. Tom Constable, professor emeritus of Bible Exposition at Dallas Theological Seminary, writes: "It is a joy to recommend Michael Halsey's biblical theology of John's Gospel. It will provide help for any student of this portion of God's Word. Warm-hearted and readable, this book will open up new vistas to the thoughtful reader."

"Sensing God is a discovery of Jesus in all of the sensory points embedded into each of us. It shows how the holiest acts in our daily lives are often the simplest: reveling in the beauty of nature; listening to our favorite music; eating a nourishing meal with family. These are potentially heartbeats of a living faith, and when we learn to recognize and respond to God’s goodness in them, it draws us into redemptive participation with Him, the source of all beauty"--Amazon.com.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. – John 1:1 Wisdom, encouragement, and exhortation is contained in these pages. Not because of the author's brilliance, but because of the words of truth contained in the gospel of John. And just as the Apostle John didn't draw any attention to himself, so also J. C. Ryle clearly and wonderfully directs his words and our thoughts towards the inspired words of scripture. If we truly love God, we will love His word; and the more study His word, the more we will love God.
