Authors and researchers Ankerberg and Burroughs have written "Taking a Stand for the Bible" to help set the record straight. Along the way, they answer the most crucial questions both Christians and non-Christians are asking, including: How did we get the Bible? How accurate is the Bible? Is the Bible still relevant to today? This is an ideal resource for anyone who wants to know more about the Bible's importance in contemporary culture or who is on a serious quest for truth about the most influential book ever written. Includes exclusive interviews with some of today's top Bible scholars, including Dr. Craig Blomberg, Dr. Darrell Bock, Dr. Gary Habermas, and Dr. N.T. Wright. Together they point to remarkable and convincing evidence that affirms the Bible's integrity and reliability.

Esther and Her Elusive God
Author: John Anthony Dunne
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1620327848
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 171
Book Description
What if the way the book of Esther has been taught to us in church and retold to us in films, cartoons, and romance novels has missed the original point of the story? Far from being models of piety and devotion, Esther and Mordecai seem indifferent to the faith of their ancestors. How then did this story become part of the Bible and gain the broad acceptance that it has? If the church should not neglect the story, how should it be read? Esther and Her Elusive God calls Christians to avoid the common attempts to make Esther more palatable and theological, and to reclaim this secular story as Scripture. Readers will be encouraged to see in Esther a profound message of God's grace and faithfulness to his wayward people.

What Did Jesus Look Like?
Author: Joan E. Taylor
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0567671518
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Jesus Christ is arguably the most famous man who ever lived. His image adorns countless churches, icons, and paintings. He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art. Everyone can conjure an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality? This question continues to fascinate. Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men. He may even have had short hair.
