The guides in this series by Tom Wright can be used on their own or alongside his New Testament for Everyone commentaries. They are designed to help you understand the Bible in fresh ways under the guidance of one of the world's leading New Testament scholars. Thoughtful questions, prayer suggestions, and useful background and cultural information all guide you into a deeper understanding of the Christian story and the Christian life. Imagine the people of Israel at the time of Jesus. They knew they were the people of God, his chosen nation, yet the Roman enemy occupied the land God had given them. The solution for many was to take up arms against Rome, violently expel their oppressors and restore God's kingdom. They believed that a Messiah would lead them to this glorious victory. Then Jesus burst on to the scene with a completely different message, announcing a new kind of kingdom - imagine! These twenty studies explore the dynamic picture of Jesus and his kingdom so vividly portrayed in Mark's Gospel. They invite us to be amazed all over again at the revolutionary power of Jesus' words and works, enabling us to find relevance and meaning for our lives and our modern, troubled world.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A series of short, question-based study guides based around the New Testament For Everyone series. The series is intended to encourage church (and other) groups to study the Bible using the For Everyone model. Experienced Bible study writers have selected excerpts and written questions that guide users through the thought of Tom Wright on each passage. These have been reviewed, edited and approved by Tom Wright. Creation is in anguish. Paul's letter to the Romans, as well as the merest glance at our world, shows this clearly. The Church shares in the suffering, groaning in the tension between the 'already' of possessing the fruit of the Spirit and the 'not yet' of our present existence. Paul, however, also makes it abundantly clear that God doesn't stand apart from the pain. Rather, he entered it through Jesus and dwells in the middle of it in the Spirit. These studies present the whole picture of a suffering, sinful world and God's deep love, still working today to reconcile that world to himself. Short, question-based study guides based on the New Testament For Everyone series. Intended to encourage church (and other) groups to study the Bible using the For Everyone model. Experienced Bible study writers select excerpts and write questions that guide users through Tom Wright's thought on each passage. Reviewed and approved by Tom Wright.
