The Names of Jesus

Warren Wiersbe explores fourteen names of Jesus from both the Old and New Testaments and explains their meaning as well as their relevance to believers today. These names underscore the richness of Jesus' person and ministry, showing him to be as relevant and caring as ever. You will see a Savior who is sufficient to handle the decisions, demands, and disturbances of life. Wiersbe exhorts Christians to encounter Christ and allow his many names and attributes to minister to ever facet of their lives.

The Prayer of Jesus

The greatest prayer ever prayed is recorded in John 17. The Son of God opened his heart to his Father, and prayed for us. Here Jesus reveals his priorities for the church he came to create. Warren Wiersbe shows us how these priorities must be ours too: God's glory, truth, assurance, obedience, a unity that impresses the world, and holy living.

The Cross of Jesus

'A hideous mistake'. 'The pivotal event of world history'.  -- These are but two of the multitude of opinions expressed down the ages about the momentus and mysterious crucifixion of Jesus. Warren Wiersbe takes us right back to the scene and shows us how Jesus himself understood the meaning of the cross, why he endured it, and what he actually said as he hung there. It becomes clear that Jesus was confronting cosmic forces. But, more than that, he was accomplishing his Father's purpose that would ultimately affect the destiny of our lives.

As we get older, some of us grow more frenetic in our anxiety to demonstrate that the force is still with us. Others withdraw, often quite abruptly.

What is God’s view of ageing? The Bible has much to say, and many stories to tell, about those who did great things, those who did ordinary things well, those who prayed, those who used their gifts, those who suffered, those who went right to the end – and those who, in later years, got it absolutely wrong.

How are we going to face the prospect of ageing? Will we subside, give up? Or shall we view retirement as a gift from God, an opportunity to reach out to others? Our older years are full of possibilities, not least of which is that of helping others find Christ.

‘God’s purpose for us is to show, as we get older, that he gives us his strength and, through our experiences of him, his wisdom,’ says Ian Knox. ‘God is not finished with us. In our later years we are not only to be blessed, but to be a blessing and bring a blessing.’

How do we invite God into our everyday lives? Working in the Presence of God discusses the incorporation of spiritual disciplines into the ordinary rhythms of everyday experience. God is already present and active, so by becoming aware of workday rhythms and focusing on where various spiritual practices might be implemented in our jobs, we can be transformed into Christ’s likeness through our work.

We often think of spiritual practices as preparation for our regular lives; in comfortable spaces and ideal settings, we set aside time to hear from God. But what if we can engage in these practices in the midst of our regular lives, and particularly at work? This transformation takes place when we surrender our working lives to God, begin to hear his voice, accept his pleasure, and allow his guidance at work.

How does Science enhance Faith? Is God relevant in an age of science? If you could mine the brains of thoughtful Christians who specialize in various scientific fields, what would you ask? 

Whether you're a student, a professor, an interested Christian, or a curious scientist, Science & Faith: Student Questions Explored offers itself as the perfect conversation starter with helpful discussion questions at the end of each chapter. Without settling into any particular viewpoint, the various contributors bring to the table their personal experiences with faith & science to launch conversations & grapple with difficult questions. This book offers honest & transparent dialogue that meets you where you are & shines light on our awe-inspiring God.

Nones claim no religion. Dones have become disillusioned and left the church. Research shows many young adults are landing in one of these camps. But that's not the end of the story. Many emerging adults, ages eighteen to thirty-three, are tossing aside the none and done labels and are instead embracing a transformative Christian faith.

Based on her extensive research, scholar-practitioner Beth Seversen outlines a model for how to engage & retain millennials & Gen Z in the life of the local church. Emerging adults are likely to experience spiritual transformation in churches that welcome them into community, provide meaningful opportunities to make a difference, & invest in their development.

Whether you're a senior pastor or a youth minister, a parent or an educator, Not Done Yet will open your eyes to the generational barriers to vibrant faith while equipping you with insights to make your outreach to emerging adults more authentic & impactful.
