Download or read book Tasty Jesus written by Bryan Hurlbutt and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Tasty Jesus deals with key cultural, philosophical, and theological representations of Christ that find expression in the North American church. Each of these respective cameos of Christ has colored the Christological understanding of many believers in the local assembly. We live in a society deeply embedded in a mindless individualism that is more concerned with a malleable Christ that suits their present taste than the Jesus of both the Bible and historic Christian orthodoxy. This book is at once a critique, a call, and a consideration. It is a critique of particular visions of Jesus that are embraced by specific subcultures, philosophical camps, and theological perspectives. It is a call to the local church, both its attendees and leadership, intended to awaken them to the problems with these various portraits in hope of stirring them to respond appropriately. It is a consideration of the primary ideological counterpoints to each view of Jesus, and a postulation of the best manner in which to equip believers in the local assembly to respond to each distortion of Jesus and live under the lordship of the real Christ. It is time to get Jesus out from under the tyranny of our personal tastes!"

Book excerpt: Unloading My Cranial Clutter from A to Z. What does one do with all of his written intellectual potpourri scattered across the internet? He obviously gathers them in one place, organizes them (if you can call the following organized), and puts them in a book that will probably be read by no more than a few people. Oh well, c'est la vie. The following are sometimes significant, occasionally silly, but most times relevant writings. If however, while reading the various bits, you find yourself disagreeing with what is written, great. I don't always agree with myself either, especially after I've done some re-evaluation. My desire is that you be open to writings that may stretch you theologically and challenge any possible rigid doctrinal paradigms.

Download or read book Soccer Mom in Galilee written by Rachel Stackhouse and published by Stackhouse Press. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique, absorbing journey in time crafted by a USA-Today bestselling novelist and a New Testament scholar. Rachel did everything right. But no matter where she was, she had the feeling she was supposed to be someplace else… When an agnostic suburban soccer mom lies down with a migraine, the last thing she expects is to wake up in a dusty, smelly courtyard in first-century Galilee. Befuddled, shocked, and -- as a woman without family traveling alone -- in fear for her very life, Rachel is grateful to be taken in by two wealthy women on a mission: the financial support of a charismatic rabbi from Nazareth. Jesus is a real up-and-comer, the women insist, with a knack for motivational speaking. You’ll love him! But Rachel has never been “a believer.” And even if she were, the swarthy, robust, and greasy-haired man to which she is introduced hardly strikes her as deity material. Then again… sometimes, she isn’t so sure. Based on both scholarly depictions of Jesus of Nazareth and research into daily life in the first century, we see through Rachel’s account a fresh, earthy, and wholly pragmatic portrait of the historical Jesus. We see the rabbi not as the gospel writers chose to present him, but as he might have appeared to the little-known women who bankrolled his travels and to the disciples’ wives who seasoned his stew. As Rachel experiences the resiliency and raw courage of these women, unsung and unrecorded by history, she is forced to wonder whether it is her own frenetic, perfectionist life that is the fairy tale. Rachel Stackhouse is a former veterinarian, childbirth educator, and mother of three who under the pen name Edie Claire is a USA-Today bestselling author of mystery and romantic women’s fiction. In her own frenetic life, she frequently has to remind herself to slow down, take stock, and simplify in order to remember what matters most. For a complete list of her books and plays, please visit www.edieclaire.com. Rev. Peter C. de Vries, Ph. D. has served for a third of a century as a pastor and teacher, daring Jesus-followers to discover the challenges and joys of having their lives turned upside down. He is married to his best friend and has three children, four grandchildren, and a goofy little dog. You can find his video devotions on the Old Union Presbyterian Church YouTube channel, or contact him by email at [email protected].
