Chapters 16-28 of the gospel of Matthew come alive in N. T. Wright's updated, reader-friendly translation and insightful commentary. He guides the reader through the world of the New Testament, explaining the ideas and events that shaped the gospel-writer's account of the life of Jesus.
Mary Alice Birdwhistell and Tyler Mayfield reflect on the brave action of the midwives Shiphrah and Puah and other faithful women in Exodus, Moses' awakening to the plight of the Hebrew people, Moses' life-changing encounter with the burning bush, the Israelites taking the risk of crossing the Red Sea, and more--alongside numerous contemporary stories--to help readers to see anew and contemplate how God is calling them to respond to what is not right in the world: racial injustice, especially borne by women of color, houselessness, and discrimination against LGBTQ+ communities and people with disabilities.
In Love in the Hebrew Bible, Song-Mi Park provides fascinating and essential insights into our understanding of one of the most central of all Jewish and Christian beliefs: that God is love.

A post-traumatic Jesus is the only Jesus Christianity has ever known.

This book examines the Gospels through the lens of trauma, in hopes that the reader will meet the post-traumatic Jesus and feel his love.
The desert is a common image for Lent, evoking Jesus' temptation in the wilderness and the barren expanse we might associate with self-denial.

Srubas uses wilderness stories both literal and metaphorical, from both Scripture and modern life, to guide readers on a challenging, yet rewarding, journey of mindfulness, empathy, commitment, and action.
