Many know of the cross but do not know or understand its power. We hear of Christ being crucified but do not see why it is so important and exactly all that it has done for the world. In this book, every accomplishment of the cross is described clearly. It goes deep into what truly happened when Jesus gave His life up for everyone in the world. It demonstrates and tests many doctrines taught about the cross and even salvation. If you want to go deep and learn why Jesus' death was and is the most powerful action in the world then you must read this book. It is truth based solely on the Bible about the greatest act in human history.

In this book, Beatrice E. Kitzinger explores the power of representation in the Carolingian period, demonstrating how images were used to assert the value and efficacy of art works. She focuses on the cross, Christianity's central sign, which simultaneously commemorates sacred history, functions in the present, and prepares for the end of time. It is well recognized that the visual attributes of the cross were designed to communicate its theology relative to history and eschatology; Kitzinger argues that early medieval artists also developed a formal language to articulate its efficacious powers in the present day. Defined through form and text as the sign of the present, the image of the cross articulated the instrumentality of religious objects and built spaces. Whereas medieval and modern scholars have pondered the theological problems posed by representation, Kitzinger here proposes a visual argument that affirms the self-reflexive value of art works in the early medieval West. Introducing little-known sources, she re-evaluates both the image of the cross and the project of book-making in an expanded field of Carolingian painting.

What beliefs are core to the Christian faith? This book is here to help you understand the reason for your hope as a Christian so that you can see it with fresh sight and invite others into the conversation. A lot of Christians take their story—the narratives that give rise to their beliefs—for granted. They pray, go to church, perhaps even read their Bible. But they might be stuck if a stranger asked them to explain what they believe and why they believe it. Author, pastor, and theologian Mike Horton unpacks the essential and basic beliefs that all Christians share in a way that is easy to understand and applicable to our lives today. And in a way that will make you excited to be a Christian! Core Christianity covers topics like: Jesus as both fully God and fully man. The doctrine of the Trinity. The goodness of God despite a broken world. The ways God speaks. The meaning of salvation. What is the Christian calling? Includes discussion questions for individual or group use. This introduction to the basic doctrines of Christianity is perfect for those who are new to the faith, as well as those who have an interest in deepening their understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

What if 2000 years ago was the catalyst that changed EVERYTHING? What if Hosea and Isaiah saw something that we haven't fully grasped. Note from the author..... "My heart for you as you read this book is that you see that you are absolutely perfect in the Father's eyes! You can't become more perfect than you already are. His heart is captivated by you! He won't be more captivated by you if you try harder, learn more, or finally get your act together! He is passionate about you right NOW. He sees your life, your struggles, your pain, and insecurities….He sees how you see yourself. And He's calling you to go with Him on an intimate journey to discover the you that He sees. The you who is ALREADY perfect, complete, whole, and beautiful! This book is meant to challenge how you see God. My hope is that you realize that God is not waiting for you to do more before He moves on your behalf. But rather embrace the FULL, dramatic, hyper-grace reality of IT IS FINISHED!"

In my opinion, the New Covenant is one of the most misunderstood subjects in the Church today. Many years ago, I wrote a blog about it and triggered reactions I never expected in my wildest dreams. Some of the reactions were very strong and aggressive and did not come from unbelievers but from well-meaning Christians, church leaders, and pastors. Generally speaking, there has been a mixture of the Old and New Covenants in the lives of Christians. Throughout most of church history, in belief and practice, the Church mixed these two Covenants, which greatly limited the expression of the life and power of Jesus Christ through her. Because the mixing of the two Covenants has been the norm rather than the exception, some of the teachings in this book might seem strange to you. If we have been accustomed to doing things in error for generations, then the right way will seem wrong to us. This book will transform your life forever
