Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Who am I? What's my purpose in life? How should I live? This book invites you to explore your identity through your callings, to imagine living virtuously for others, and to discover deep meaning and satisfaction in life. You'll look at many vocations that young people have or will have later in life. Callings covered include being a student, citizen, neighbor, worker, care-taker of nature, husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, parent, child, sibling, saint and priest, and friend. Chapters on these callings examine the nature and responsibilities of these roles in light of human and divine wisdom found in the liberal arts tradition and the Bible. You'll also entertain the role that avocations play in life and how such enthusiastic pursuits can renew and equip you. Each chapter contains exercises for reflection and discussion that can be done privately, with a partner, or in a group. &nbsp.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In the first century, the resurrection fact faced both Jewish and Greek audiences with a challenge, the challenge of a new reality: Christ, the risen Lord. Since facts are by definition "something that happened" and this happening was witnessed, proclaimed, and recorded, the fact stands for all generations. In answering critics, a defense of the resurrection consists not only of a response by way of negation (e.g., Christianity is not this), but also through positive affirmations (this is Christianity). In this book, the reader will find both. However, it is our hope that the final word retained would be the one that stands for something rather than against something. Together, our words stand for something positive, not negative; namely the good news that the one true God has now taken charge of the world, in and through Jesus and His death and resurrection.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Being Dad deals with the way fathers, and the subject of fatherhood, are treated in modern culture. Dr. Keith brings his experience with family, students, great mentors and friends to bear on this subject which is crying out for attention. Equally, he brings his Christian faith, a scholarly eye for detail and an ear for story along on the journey and works with the reader to navigate a path to a better country where the Father blesses His children and is honored. What you hold in your hands is more than just a book. It is magic Dr. Keith understands the increasingly counter-cultural yet vital truth: that there is no force in a child's life more potent than that of a good father, the kind that points to the goodness of our Heavenly Father. Packed with all manner of everyday insights and amazing stories-not to mention theological wisdom-whether you had a good father, a not-so-good father, or no father at all, Being Dad will leave you in a puddle on the floor. -David Zahl, Director of Mockingbird Ministries Scott Keith has established himself as a first rate scholar of Melanchthon and the Lutheran Confessions. But for all of his scholarly enterprise, he is first of all a husband and father who has thought extensively about the vocation of father. His book sets out his theological and practical reflections in a wonderful conversation with his dear wife, Joy, and their children. I can't imagine a more helpful resource for a family or a congregation anchoring itself in the deep traditions of the faith. -Rev. Dr. James Arne Nestingen, Th.D. Professor Emeritus of Church History, Luther Seminary.…

In Wittenberg vs. Geneva, Brian Thomas provides a biblical defense of the key doctrines that have divided the Lutheran and Reformed traditions for nearly five centuries. It is especially written to help those who may have an interest in the Lutheran church, but are concerned that her stance on doctrines like predestination or the sacraments may not have biblical support. To get to the heart of the matter, Pastor Thomas focuses solely upon those crucial scriptural texts that have led Lutheran and Reformed scholars down different paths to disparate conclusions as he spars with popular Calvinist theologians from the past and the present.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. We need to rediscover dangerous friendships. Dangerous relationships with people who aren't exactly like us, because friendship, creativity, and debate are essential. In Where Two or Three are Gathered, Dr. Scott Keith has collected essays from several of his friends to reflect on the nature of friendship. Stories of historical friendships from the Ancient Near East to the pubs of modern Oxford are told. The benefits of friends walking together and confiding in each other are also extolled. Each section takes a unique approach. Some are academic, others are pastoral, while the rest are more down to earth. Not all friends are alike, and thus not all the chapters in this little book are alike. Yet, there is something uniquely special about this work on friendship written by a group of friends. We hope you enjoy this short work given to you by your friends at 1517.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The Impossible Prize is a lantern in the darkness, casting light on the theological underpinnings of addiction and recovery. In this book, the reader will confront the raw truth, that the struggle against addiction is not merely a battle of willpower or a psychological chess match; it's a spiritual warfare, a clash between the forces of hopelessness and the redemptive grace of a higher power. The Impossible Prize, therefore, invites readers into a profound dialogue with their own vulnerabilities, urging them to relinquish the futile pursuit of self-made solutions and instead turn their gaze toward the divine.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This now classic book is a significant corrective to several recent developments in the study of the historical Jesus. In contrast to depictions of Jesus as a wandering Cynic teacher, Geza Vermes offers a portrait based on evidence of charismatic activity in first-century Galilee. Vermes shows how the major New Testament titles of Jesus-prophet, Lord, Messiah, son of man, Son of God-can be understood in this historical context. The result is a description of Jesus that retains its power and its credibility.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Much to the dismay of its critics, defending the Christian faith does not rest on a complicated, philosophical quest nor illogical assumptions. The task of defending the Christian faith - or Christian apologetics - is for every Believer. In this easy-to-read, beginners guide to Christian apologetics, scholar and apologist Dr. John Warwick Montgomery lays the groundwork for why the case for Christianity is factually and historically compelling as well as how we should defend the faith. The book's three sections will lead you through the importance of Christian apologetics, issues the nonbeliever may raise, and how to bring the centrality of the faith - Christ on the cross - before atheists, skeptics and people from other worldviews. For those who want a lighthearted yet thorough introduction to the how, why and what of Christian apologetics, this primer is a go-to guide for those who hope to "be ready always to give an answer for the faith that is within" (1 Peter 3:15).&nbsp.…
