Savior Is Born
$21.99
During the Christmas season, even those who do not know Jesus love the lights and songs. And yet to many, this is all that Christmas is about. Even for Christians who genuinely love Jesus, the holiday bustle drowns out the true meaning of the season: Christmas is God’s yearly reminder for sinners to come out of the darkness and into the light.
A Savior Is Born by William F. Cook III offers a fresh, rigorous, and devotional exploration of the birth and infancy narratives of Jesus Christ. Positioned around the accounts detailed in Matthew and Luke, each chapter exposits the biblical text in a chronological order, exploring its exegetical meaning, Old Testament fulfillment, and ancient customs. In addition to exegetical commentary, each chapter concludes with pastoral reflections and a traditional Christian hymn of response.
Written by a pastor and biblical scholar, A Savior Is Born is intended for any Christian who wants to dive deep into the passages of Scripture that convey the Christmas story. It is also a valuable resource for church small groups and pastors who want to lead their congregations in a deeper understanding of the Advent season.

Surprised By Hope
$15.99For years Christians have been asking, “If you died tonight, do you know where you would go?” It turns out Christians have been giving the wrong answer. It is not heaven.
One of today’s premier Bible scholars and award-winning author N.T. Wright outlines the present confusion about a Christian’s future hope and shows how it is deeply intertwined with how we live today. Wright shows that Christianity’s most distinctive idea is bodily resurrection. First, he provides a magisterial defense of a literal resurrection of Jesus himself. This became the cornerstone for the Christian community’s hope in the bodily resurrection of all people at the end of the age. Next Wright explores our expectation of “new heavens and new earth,” showing what happens to the dead until then and what will happen with the “second coming” of Jesus. For many, including many Christians, all this will come as a great surprise.
Wright convincingly argues that what we believe about life after death directly affects what we believe about life before death. For if God intends to renew the whole creation – and if this has already begun in Jesus’s resurrection – the church cannot stop at “saving souls” but must anticipate the eventual renewal by working for God’s kingdom in the wider world, bringing healing and hope in the present life.
Lively and accessible, this book will surprise and excite all who are interested in the meaning of life, not only after death but, before it.
