Accompanied by illustrations from various epochs of Christian art history, presents sermons by the Archbishop of Vienna, Austria on the topic "Who is Jesus Christ?"

Matt Mikalatos liked Jesus a lot. In fact, he couldn’t believe how much they had in common. They shared the same likes, dislikes, beliefs, and opinions. (Though Jesus did have better hair.) So imagine Matt’s astonishment when he finds out that the guy he knows as Jesus . . . isn’t. He’s an Imaginary Jesus: a comfortable, convenient imitation Matt has created in his own image. The real Jesus is still out there somewhere . . . and Matt is determined to find him. In this hilarious, fast-paced, sort-of-true story hailed as “Monty Python meets C. S. Lewis,” Matt embarks on an incredible chase to find the real Jesus and ask him the one question that his Imaginary Jesus has never been able to answer. It’s a wild spiritual adventure like nothing you’ve ever read before . . . and it might bring you face-to-face with an imposter in your own life. This new edition now contains a discussion guide, an interview with the author, and other bonus features! (Previously published as Imaginary Jesus.)

Collects short Bible stories from the New Testament, featuring the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

“Thomas’s rhyming reflection on the place Jesus has in a young boy’s life still provides inspiration and comfort to today’s readers.” —School Library Journal A classic for over half a century, If Jesus Came to My House is a tender tale of how a young boy realizes that he can welcome Jesus into his life by helping all people both young and old. This rhymed reflection provides refreshing insight on how we all can learn to be respectful, courteous, giving, and loving toward others. The original two-color illustrations by Henri Sorensen bring the simple inspirational message of this story to life. For generations to come, parents and children will find inspiration in Joan Gale Thomas’s classic book time and time again.

"My" Jesus is a collection of twenty-three sermons--that is to say, good news twenty-three times, twenty-three jets of freedom--preached in French Protestant parishes or on the radio. I say "my" Jesus, not out of pride, but with humility. For I know well that this Jesus is not the Jesus of everyone, and moreover, that it is not a question of imposing it on anyone. This Jesus is not the Jesus of the historians or the scholars, neither the Jesus of the ecclesiastical hierarchies and other guardians of "theological correctness." He certainly is disputable and impertinent, but this Jesus is mine and I live from him. The sermons ask four questions that are unsettling for any preacher and congregation. How can the message of Jesus still address us today? What does Jesus teach us about God that is truly new? How should we receive the gospel of non-violence of the Sermon on the Mount? How can we remain a Church of Easter Day? It may appear that I am proposing answers to these four questions. In fact, my deepest desire is that the pertinence of their challenge not be forgotten; beyond that, it is up to each one to live with these difficult questions as he or she understands them. -Louis Simon

An Atlanta-born son of a rabbi describes his year-long spiritual quest during which he reinvigorated his flagging enthusiasm for orthodox Judaism by touring Christian pop culture venues.

Jesus had dreadlocks! Jesus had blue eyes. Jesus would never say THAT! Everyone claims to know something about Jesus. But they are likely incomplete. Jesus was judgmental! He called people names, and made fun of others! If you don't know him this way, you should. Understanding who he is-and who he isn't-is the key to knowing ourselves and how we are to live. Not My Jesus is a humorous, yet poignant look at faith, culture, and life. Using everything from movies to Tweets, Bob Fabey helps us to think about how we view Jesus, the strengths and weaknesses of each approach, and how we are called to live. In this book you will... - Identify the way you and others primarily view Jesus - Get a Biblical overview of who he really was (it's not what you think!) - Discover the sacred role you play - Gain practical ways to live in light of who Jesus was Are you ready to confront your Jesus and embrace your sacred role?

Growing up in a large adventuresome family I learned to love variety and risky living. I didn't grow up thinking about motorcycles. After several years of motorcycle riding I now realize that the joy of riding has tied together a lot of my life story as riding takes some risks. A well lived missionary life is not a completely safe life. I have known how very real and loving God is and that is the glue that binds these stories together. I, Barbara, a wife, mother of five, grandmother and missionary invite you to take a glimpse into my life and walk of faith.
