What can we learn by watching Jesus respond to his mother, when she asks him for help, and he changes the water into wine? What is Jesus saying to Nicodemus, “the up and in,” about being born again and the Spirit? And with the “the down and out” Samaritan Woman at the Well, Jesus shows us how to effectively reach those who have been wounded by religion and relationships.

Yosef struggles through his responsibilities as the surrogate father of the messiah, destined as he is to raise and train the single most influential person in human history. Dwelling with his wife and children in the quiet township of Natzeret, always beneath the shadow of the Roman Empire, at times beneath its hostility, Yosef does the very best that he can to guide his adopted prodigy of a son. No one else had ever been expected to function as the guardian of God during His incarnate adolescence. And Yosef never knew as much either.

Based on the book of Acts this is the story of the Apostle Paul's third journey. Told through the eyes of Paul's companion Timothy this is the tale of the journey to Ephesus and Paul's time in the city. Unlike his earlier journeys the third journey is spent mostly in one city where Paul not only raises up a church but trains young men to take on the mission of raising up the next generation of churches after his death. This is also the story of the church in Corinth and Paul's letters to that riotous, chaotic gathering.

Get ready to laugh! Get ready to tap your toes! Get ready to take a fresh look at what it means to “love your neighbor” and to “turn the other cheek” (not that one, you nitwit!). Set in ancient Jerusalem, SYMPHONY OF LIFE mostly tells the story of Joel, a corrupt tax collector who’s in desperate need of a swift kick in the pants. But there’s also a cadre of irate marketplace vendors all vying to be the one to deliver the humbling blow; a spunky, young widow who wishes she had more than two pitiful mites to cast into the offering box at the temple treasury; a pair of star-crossed lovers.

Very little is known of Mephibosheth from Biblical history. We know that he lived during the rise of the new city of Jerusalem, lived in the palace of David, and undoubtedly witnessed the building of Solomon’s Temple. He would have known of David’s adultery with Bathsheba, his songs and psalms, and the challenges to his power from his son Absalom and others. How did this man, falling from prince to pauper, from able-bodied to a cripple, then restored to the king’s palace, navigate such a turbulent journey?

For centuries, biblical historians have pondered the enigmatic origins of the Gospel of Matthew, the foundational text capturing the adult life of Jesus of Nazareth.

Now, amidst shifting scholarly consensus, a riveting narrative emerges to explore the genesis of this pivotal scripture.

Behind the Halo offers listeners an engaging, new perspective on the humanity of Jesus and his emotional reactions to people and events around him. This fictional account of his ministry, based on the gospels of the Bible, follows Jesus, the man and teacher, with his band of disciples as they navigate issues of ancient Israel. Poverty, political intrigue, suppression, and undiagnosed and misunderstood health conditions ran rampant, much like they do in our 21st century.

Satire is a kind of preaching. Satire pervades Scripture. Satire treats the foibles of sinners with a less than perfect tenderness. But if a Christian employs satire today, he is almost immediately called to account for his "insensitive" and "unloving" behavior. Yet Scripture shows that the central point of some religious controversies is to give offense. When Christ was confronted with ecclesiastical obstinacy and other forms of arrogance, He showed us a godly pattern for giving offense.

This isn’t just a book about surviving cancer. It’s a book about discovering that God’s love and grace are enough, even in the hardest moments. It’s about learning to trust Him when you can’t see the way forward and finding hope when hope feels out of reach.

On the shore of the Sea of Galilee, in the first century Palestine, a spirit possessed a woman, Mary of Magdala—a generous and learned woman of business. Mary drew together a community of outcasts, rescued from lives of poverty and humiliation. Longing for children, she brought into her circle a Greek slave girl, Demetria, and adopted her as a daughter. Though she was a devout Jew, it was natural for Mary to show compassion to all those who were looked upon as "other"—gentile, prostitute, and leper.

Attingendo sia dall'Antico sia dal Nuovo Testamento e concentrandosi sulla prima parte della esistenza di Gesù, Josè Saramago, con spirito volutamente dissacratorio, modifica gli eventi tramandati dai vangeli canonici, senza rispettarne la cronologia. Il risultato è il racconto della quotidianità di Gesù narrato come uomo, con passioni e dubbi e dei suoi contemporanei nella Palestina del I secolo d.C.
