The pathway Jesus took to the cross of Calvary is commonly called "the Passion." This sorrowful path weaved through soul-wrenching prayers and illicit deals made in shadowy darkness. It descended into corrupted courts bereft of justice and circled by prejudiced rulers stripped of power. On this pathway of his passion, Jesus paused for a torturous scourging and plodded on doggedly to a horrific death on a hillside called the Skull. But why?

It is believed that this book directly inspired King Henry VIII to abandon his faith in Roman Catholicism, set up his own State Church, and confiscate the lands and property of said Church in his domain. Monks and nuns were persecuted and murdered as their property was stolen and put into the coffers of the Crown.

The aphorism, "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he," not only embraces the whole of a man's being but is so comprehensive as to reach out to every condition and circumstance of his life. A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts. As the plant springs from, and could not be without, the seed, so every act of a man springs from the hidden seeds of thought and could not have appeared without them. This applies equally to those acts called "spontaneous" and "unpremeditated" as to those which are deliberately executed.

What does it mean for a husband to love his wife? Three things, says Tony Evans: a husband must be his wife's savior, sanctifier, and satisfier. It is by living out these three principles that a godly marriage will blossom and flourish.

The early church in Corinth was falling apart. Sin was rampant, divisions were growing, and the congregation was living no differently than the world around them. What had corrupted this once vibrant church? The apostle Paul immediately understood the symptoms: The people had traded God's perfect wisdom for faulty human knowledge. Be Wise guides us through Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, where he encourages his fellow believers to embrace a life of wisdom and truth.

Hoy en día, gracias a los avances en física cuántica y en las neurociencias, sabemos que nuestros pensamientos afectan a nuestra vida; que nuestra visión del mundo, tarde o temprano, acaba convirtiéndose en nuestra realidad. Esto mismo ya lo anticipó James Allen hace más de cien años. Por aquel entonces no se conocían los detalles científicos que en este siglo ya están a la orden del día. Sin embargo, Allen demostró ser un avanzado en este asunto y se dedicó, en cuerpo y alma, a trasmitir a todo aquel que quisiese escuchar estas enseñanzas.

John Bunyan admitted he was one of the worst sinners to have ever lived. But after converting to Christianity, he was constantly amazed by the fact that God saved him from his wrongdoings.

Published in 1688, the year of his death, The Jerusalem Sinner Saved brings together the fruit of Bunyan's thoughts on the grace of forgiveness.

We are witnesses of perilous times as spiritual darkness descends upon this generation as never before. Every believer in Jesus Christ is called to pray, to seek His presence, perspective and power. And there are some who have been called to intercession, to be Kingdom Watchmen and Warriors. Prayer is not something we do; rather it is a love connection with our heavenly Father, who loves us and desires an intimate love relationship with us.

Today's man is in an identity crisis. With a never-ending barrage of confusing, condescending, and condemning voices telling him who he is and who he isn't, it can feel impossible to discover who he was made to be. Men were made to be kings, to protect the light, fight the darkness, and rule well the domain God has given them. Drawing on the ancient tradition of an older and wiser ruler passing on his wisdom, like Solomon in the book of Proverbs, Nathan Clarkson offers young men forty short and to-the-point letters for the journey.

Most women in the church don't aspire to "lord" it over men, nor do they want to scramble for position. Instead, they want to be accepted as full participants in God's work, sharing in kingdom tasks in ways that use their gifts appropriately. In Gender Roles and the People of God, author, radio host, and professor at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary Alice Mathews surveys the roles women have played in the Bible and throughout church history, demonstrating both the inspiring contributions of women and the many hurdles that have been placed in their path.
