Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - God isn't a firefly that we can catch in a jar. We can't capture His ways. There's no catching up to the One who created existence. No controlling the One holds the world in his Hands. Our sovereign God evades our figuring out. When we spot Him, it's only because He chose to make Himself known for that moment in time. Then He hides. He leaves us wondering where He'll show up next. >In Winks from Scripture, Chris Palmer takes you through New Testament narratives, pointing out ambiguities and uncertainties that resist clarity or answers. If we dig a little deeper, God just might surprise us with a wink. John's Gospel, for example, opens by declaring, 'In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.' Throughout John, however, people stubbornly insist He is just a man. Jesus plainly tells the Samaritan woman at the well that He is the Messiah, yet she runs and tells her village, 'Come, see a man.' God winks and winks. In the end, John circles back to the beginning of his gospel: 'These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.' These brief, luminous winks of radiance into our lives leave us with a sense of awe, anticipating the next wink that will signal that God is out there somewhere. He is watching and letting us know He is at work among us.…

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Where's God when times are hard? He's winking to let us know He's with us! Life is mysterious and cryptic. It defies explanation, especially in times of suffering and distress. We wonder, Where is God in all of this? He's with us--and the Scriptures wink to show us His redemptive activity unfolding in our lives. In Winks from Scripture, Chris Palmer takes you through familiar New Testament stories and points out unfamiliar features that have the effect of a punchline. When the Scriptures wink, you'll be surprised, delighted, and challenged not to give up hope. "Biblical stories are loaded with mystery," Chris says. "That mystery keeps us asking questions about the story's details. In doing so, little ironies and nuances emerge that we hadn't seen before. This is God winking at us, letting us know He's there, guiding our lives." In Winks from Scripture, you will: - Come to embrace mystery - Learn how to appreciate uncertainty and integrate it into a vibrant life of faith - Discover how God triumphs over suffering - Observe how the New Testament writers understood the Old Testament through Jesus - Renew your hope in God's beautiful plan of creation and redemption Guided by careful scholarship and heartfelt, pastoral reflection, these thirty studies offer a fresh perspective to the most difficult questions of the Christian faith, certain to bring comfort to your soul.
