What the Person and Work of Jesus Really Means Christians, rightly called "people of the cross," look to Jesus's death and resurrection as the central points of his earthly mission. But in order to understand more fully the person and work of Christ, it's important for believers to fix their minds on his entire ministry—his life, death, resurrection, and ongoing ministry today—and not solely on his work on the cross. In Man of Sorrows, King of Glory, Jonty Rhodes uses the traditional roles of Jesus as prophet, priest, and king (often referred to as his "threefold office") to show how his whole life—in humiliation on earth and now exaltation in glory— is lived for us. As believers explore Jesus's life, death, resurrection, and ascension, they will develop a holistic portrait of the Messiah and a deeper appreciation for God's plan to reclaim sinners.
The day of 9 Thermidor (27 July 1794) is universally acknowledged as a major turning-point in the history of the French Revolution. Maximilien Robespierre, the most prominent member of the Committee of Public Safety, was planning to destroy one of the most dangerous plots that the Revolution had faced.

The untold and inspiring story of Eric Liddell, hero of Chariots of Fire, from his Olympic medal to his missionary work in China to his last, brave years in a Japanese work camp during WWII Many people will remember Eric Liddell as the Olympic gold medalist from the Academy Award winning film Chariots of Fire. Famously, Liddell would not run on Sunday because of his strict observance of the Christian sabbath, and so he did not compete in his signature event, the 100 meters, at the 1924 Paris Olympics. He was the greatest sprinter in the world at the time, and his choice not to run was ridiculed by the British Olympic committee, his fellow athletes, and most of the world press. Yet Liddell triumphed in a new event, winning the 400 meters in Paris. Liddell ran--and lived--for the glory of his God. After winning gold, he dedicated himself to missionary work. He travelled to China to work in a local school and as a missionary. He married and had children there. By the time he could see war on the horizon, Liddell put Florence, his pregnant wife, and children on a boat to Canada, while he stayed behind, his conscience compelling him to stay among the Chinese. He and thousands of other westerners were eventually interned at a Japanese work camp. Once imprisoned, Liddell did what he was born to do, practice his faith and his sport. He became the moral center of an unbearable world. He was the hardest worker in the camp, he counseled many of the other prisoners, he gave up his own meager portion of meals many days, and he organized games for the children there. He even raced again. For his ailing, malnourished body, it was all too much. Liddell died of a brain tumor just before the end of the war. His passing was mourned around the world, and his story still inspires. In the spirit of The Boys in the Boat and Unbroken, For the Glory is both a compelling narrative of athletic heroism and a gripping story of faith in the darkest circumstances.
Which of us, when the shadow of the cross of suffering has fallen across our lives, hasn’t in anguish cried out, “Why, God?” How many of us have sat weeping and helpless with others who were asking the same question? Nothing tests the extreme limits of our faith like sorrow and suffering. Gardiner Spring compassionately draws up a chair next to ours and shares wisdom from God’s Word that will light candles of comfort, hope and meaning for our darkest hours of sorrow. He helps us build a theology of suffering that will benefit us personally and strengthen our ability to walk alongside others who are suffering.
As Star grieves the loss of a friend, contemplates her future and battles with an unknown enemy her world is turned upside down when a young boy in need of a mother and his nanny arrive at her door as compliments of the grave. Sorrow’s Gift is a story of healing, unknown possibilities and intrigue, all wrapped up in the hand of a God who always knows what is best!
In all this you will greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief to all kinds of trials. These have come so that your faith-of-greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire-may be probed genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed (1Peter 1:6-7 NIV). Have you ever found yourself in a tight corner, and you regretted being on earth? Have you ever been swallowed by a serious problem, and you wished you were dead?. Has any close relative or bosom friend ever disappointed you, and you became captive of depression? You might have fallen victim to one of the above situations and life really seemed worthless to you. Brethren, none of these woeful situations is permanent. It may be a test planned by God to promote you in life or show His glory to your enemies. Or, a temptation planned by the devil. Though suffering and chaos befall us, they can never quench that inner light of providence (ODonohue, 2008). Indeed, the struggles we embrace in our daily lives can never erode the glory of God on us. He has promised, and He will never fail.
