Children in Early Christian Narratives by Sharon Betsworth Pdf
Sharon Betsworth examines the narratives, parables, and teachings of and about children in the gospels and the literature of Early Christianity. Betsworth begins with a discussion of the social-historical context of children and childhood in the first century before discussing the role of children in all four gospels. She shows that for Mark and Matthew, children are integral to understanding each evangelist's perspective on the reign of God and on Jesus' identity in each Gospel. In the Gospel of Luke the childhood of Jesus is shown to be crucial to the broader themes of the Gospel. In the Gospel of John, Betsworth examines the metaphorical use of the word 'children' looking at 'children of light' and of 'darkness'. She then explores stories of Jesus' childhood in the non-canonical Infancy Gospels of James and Thomas, as well as the childhood of his mother, Mary in the latter shedding light upon views of children, discipleship, and the person of Jesus in early christianity and in the ancient world more generally.
It's almost Hanukkah and the dreidel-maker's shop is busy. But all is not well for the four Hebrew letters that will soon go on the wooden tops. The Heys, the Nuns, and the Shins are jealous of everyone's favorite letter, the Gimel. They decide to hide the Gimels so that the dreidel-maker can't use them. But then the other letters learn that the Hanukkah story wouldn't be complete without the Gimels! Is it too late for the missing letters to be found?
Twenty years ago, Allie Denty was the pretty one and her best friend Olivia Pelham was the smart one. Throughout high school, they were inseparable...until a vicious rumor about Olivia— a rumor too close to the truth—ended their friendship. Now, on the eve of their twentieth high school reunion, Allie, a temp worker, finds herself suddenly single, a little chubby, and feeling old. Olivia, a cool and successful magazine beauty editor in New York, realizes she's lonely, and is finally ready to face her demons. Sometimes hope lives in the future; sometimes it comes from the past; and sometimes, when every stupid thing goes wrong, it comes from a prettily packaged jar filled with scented cream and promises. Beth Harbison has done it again. A hilarious and touching novel about friendship, Love's Baby Soft perfume, Watermelon Lip Smackers, bad run-ins with Sun-In, and the healing power of "Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific." Hope in a Jar: we all need it.
Jesus: His Story in Stone is a reflection on still-existing stone objects that Jesus would have known, seen, or even touched. Each of the seventy short chapters is accompanied by a photograph taken on location in Israel. Arranged chronologically, the one-page meditations compose a portrait of Christ as seen through the significant stones in His life, from the cave where He was born to the rock of Calvary. While packed with historical and archaeological detail, the book’s main thrust is devotional, leading the reader both spiritually and physically closer to Jesus.

What Satan Doesn't Want you to Know by Felix Wantang Pdf
This book reveals the limitations of Satan, how to resist him, and the tools that you need to spiritually draw closer to God through Jesus Christ. When you read this book, you will come to understand the crafty schemes that Satan uses to operate in the world and why you should never be afraid of him. This book will help you look at Satan through the eyes of Jesus Christ and come to the realization that Satan is afraid of humanity. In life, in order to fight and successfully defeat your enemies, you must first understand your enemies and their limitations. You must use weapons capable of destroying the forces of your enemies; otherwise, you will be fighting a lost battle. Jesus Christ is the light of God; in the garden of Eden, Satan disguised himself when he deceived Eve because he knew the strength and weakness of Eve; he also knew that to destroy Adam, you must go through Eve. Adam and Eve on the other hand were oblivious of Satan’s true identity, strength, and limitations which explains why they failed and subsequently gave birth to the sins of the world. In the wilderness, Satan did not try to disguise himself when he tempted Jesus Christ because Jesus was cognizant of Satan’s true identity, limitations, his source of strength, and what it takes to humiliate or resist him; Jesus knew exactly when and how to tell Satan to back off. When the giant Goliath attacked the Israelites, the young David with no warfare experience decided to confront Goliath because he knew and understood the limitations of the giant. From a supernatural standpoint, David knew that nothing is more powerful than the true living God. The truth is that Satan doesn’t want you to know that he is vulnerable, inferior to you, and afraid of humanity; he also doesn’t want you to know that he is fighting a lost battle. God has given you everything you need to resist and humiliate Satan because the battle was fought on the cross and Jesus Christ has overcome the world. “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33. When you read this book, you will come to the conclusion that Satan is afraid of you. Jesus loves you.
The Miracles of Jesus According to John by Stephen S. Kim Pdf
In our age of theological relativism, Jesus' question to His own disciples continues to ring true: "Who do the people say that the Son of Man is?" Through Jesus' seven miracles and His seven "I Am" sayings, the apostle John provides a clear answer to that all-important question. Furthermore, what do Jesus' miracles represent? Are they designed to point to something or someone? In our "supernatural-crazed" culture that affects even evangelical Christianity, it is refreshing to be reminded that biblical miracles were never arbitrary but were always purposeful, authenticating God's message and His messenger(s). In the Gospel of John, the miracles of Jesus are both Christological, that is, they highlight Jesus' Person, and eschatological, that is, they foreshadow the work the Messiah will do in His future Advent. The miracles remind us that God's desire for every believer is first and foremost a spiritual relationship with Him through His Son. Furthermore, Jesus' miracles also remind us that God's work in and for every believer will be fully and ultimately realized in the everlasting life.
