The twenty-seven books of the New Testament present the life and teachings of Jesus, the history of the early church, and instruction for believers throughout the ages. Studying these books not only provides a greater understanding of Jesus Christ, but are the primary source for inspiration and direction in the Christian life.

"Living the New Testament" offers a concise explanation of key biblical passages from Matthew to Revelation as well as practical applications for living out the truths and teachings of Jesus. Beginning with a selected Scripture passage, each daily reading encourages and stimulates spiritual growth and ends with an inspirational thought to ponder throughout the day. Writing in his classic accessible style that readers came to love in "Approaching God," pastor, teacher, and theologian Paul Enns delivers an easy-to-read devotional that will challenge, instruct, and encourage readers' walks with God.

Renowned pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller writes the book his readers have been asking for: A year-long daily devotional, beautifully designed with gilt edges and a gold ribbon marker. The Book of Psalms is known as the Bible's songbook-Jesus knew all 150 psalms intimately, and relied on them to face every situation, including his death. Two decades ago, Tim Keller began reading the entire Book of Psalms every month. The Songs of Jesus is based on his accumulated years of study, insight, and inspiration recorded in his prayer journals. Kathy Keller came to reading the psalms as a support during an extended illness. Together they have distilled the meaning of each verse, inviting readers into the vast wisdom of the psalms. If you have no devotional life yet, this book is a wonderful way to start. If you already spend time in study and prayer, understanding every verse of the psalms will bring you a new level of intimacy with God, unlocking your purpose within God's kingdom.

Evagrius Ponticus (345-399 n.Chr.) beschreibt in seiner Schrift de oratione das Gebet als eine innere Haltung. Ausfuhrlich geht er auf die Voraussetzungen des Gebets ein und auch die Bedrohungen, die er als "Damonen" bezeichnet. Durch die Untersuchungen der Autorin werden insbesondere zur Frage nach dem Verfasser von de oratione neue Erkenntnisse gewonnen: Nur eine Grundsubstanz kann Evagrius Ponticus zugeschrieben werden, nicht der gesamte Umfang der 153 Kapitel. Die gedankliche und sprachliche Abhangigkeit von Origenes, Clemens von Alexandrien und Gregor von Nyssa wird herausgearbeitet. Sie erklart auch die philosophische Pragung der theologischen Schrift. Eine deutsche UEbersetzung von de oratione ist beigefugt.

Dr. Billy Graham says in the "Words of Wisdom" foreword, "The Psalms tell us how to get along with God, and the Proverbs tell us how to get along with our fellow man." As has long been Dr. Graham's personal practice, "Words of Wisdom" makes it easy for anyone to read five Psalms and a chapter from Proverbs each day for 31 days. This beautiful LeatherLike gift edition offers a convenient, easy-to-understand, and enjoyable way to discover how these ancient words deliver valuable life principles. King David wrote many of the Psalms, often with the passion of a worshiper and the anxiety of a 21st-century person, while dealing with everyday tensions. His son Solomon, largely known for his wisdom, wrote the wisdom literature of the Proverbs. In these nearly 3,000-year-old sacred writings, we hear the voices and counsel of those who knew God intimately. Let "Words of Wisdom" encourage you with divine hope and affirmation for living the life God has planned for you.

The business of life is to live and to live well. But in this day and age we know almost everything about life except how to live it. We can dissect life and explain its parts and then fail to put it together again in such a way that it becomes a coordinated, harmonious whole. Through the vibrant writings of E. Stanley Jones, discover not only how God desires more for us than we could ever think or imagine, but freely gives us that abundant life of body, mind, and spirit.

"Abundant Living," the sequel to "Victorious Living," continues the journey toward extraordinary life through trusting God and self-surrender. Written in 1942 by one of the greatest Christian leaders of the day, experience this classic devotional with a new foreword by Leonard Sweet.

Suffering is an age-old question that has puzzled the

people of God since time began. After all, if our God

is both a loving and an all-powerful being, why does He

allow such pain and suffering in the world?

At the age of eighty-two, legendary Bible scholar Dr.

Herbert Lockyer took on this question. As he watched

his wife of sixty-six years slowly fade from loving spouse

to an incapacitated person who needed his constant care,

it caused him to look upon her afflicted, helpless form,

and ask, O my God, why?

In this outstanding work, Lockyer does not present ideas

on how to cope with suffering but teaches how to pass

through it, removing self-pity and using personal trials as

a springboard to help others. In the midst of his darkest

hour, Lockyer examines the problem of human suffering

in light of God's love and His eternal plan.

This incredible though little-known classic of Catholic spirituality presents before the reader the entire school of true Christian holiness and the means and exercises necessary to attain sanctity. As no one shall enter Heaven who is not perfect, then if we wish to attain to that perfection which will gain us entrance to eternal happiness with The Blessed Trinity, with Jesus, with Our Lady, St. Joseph and all the Saints and Angels, we need to start in earnest and with a sure method to correct every aspect of our lives. The Imitation of the Sacred Heart of Jesus by Fr. Peter Arnoudt, S.J. is just such a "sure method" that the soul needs as a guide to perfection. For it begins at the beginning and covers every means at our disposal as Catholics, which we have and which we need to perfect ourselves plus it covers every pitfall that we face in the daunting task of attaining holiness.
