This book is a powerful expression of Jesus Christ given in the midst of the brokenness and hostilities of this world, as experienced by those who are marginalized and persecuted in contemporary society.

Jesús es Dios. Esta es una confesión de fe absolutamente incuestionable. Pronunciar estas palabras puede dar por hecho el conocimiento de quién es Dios antes de saber nada sobre Jesús. Sin embargo, esto no es lo que enseñan las Escrituras. Según los Evangelios está claro que nosotros no conocemos plenamente a Dios, ni sabemos quién es él realmente. Para eso tuvo que aparecer en la historia Jesús de Nazaret. Por lo tanto, tendríamos que...

It's not a constant battle against small temptations. It's because Jesus didn't spend all his energy fighting the temptations of the world that he was able to withstand genuine temptation. This series of studies of his life takes-a-look at stories from the gospels,...

It is the author's understanding of Him from well over sixty-five years of a personal relationship and study. It aims toward those who have given up on Jesus, because the portrayal of...

From its English publication in 1973, Jurgen Moltmann's The Crucified God garnered much attention, and it has become one of the seminal texts of twentieth-century theology. Following up on his groundbreaking Theology of Hope, The Crucified God established the cross as the foundation for Christian hope.

In order for us to truly be the people Jesus wants us to be, we too must learn to become "foolish."
Becoming a Christian is not a magical enterprise by which we are automatically transformed into better people. We must...

In both biblical studies and systematic theology, modern treatments of the person of Christ have cast doubt on whether earlier Christian descriptions of God-in which God is immutable, impassible, eternal, and simple-can fit together with the revelation of God in Christ. This book explains how the Jesus revealed in Scripture comports with such descriptions of God. The author argues that the Bible's Christology coheres with and even requires the affirmation...
