Book excerpt: Hebrews 12:1-13 portrays the suffering of its readers with two images: an athletic contest, and God's fatherly discipline. N. Clayton Croy places this important passage in the context of Jewish and Greco-Roman traditions. He argues that the idea of "training" unites the passage, which presents Jesus as the supreme athlete. It also supports a nonpunitive understanding of discipline, in which God's children undergo a positive process of education. These ideas combine to support a call in Hebrews to faithful endurance rather than repentance.

Book Synopsis Radical by : David Platt

Download or read book Radical written by David Platt. This book was released on 2010-05-04. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

Book Synopsis The Gift of Endurance by : Betab G Zena

Download or read book The Gift of Endurance written by Betab G Zena. This book was released on 2019-08-14. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often times challenging to understand why it is that we face many trials in our lives, especially as teens and young adults in this generation. The reason for patient and Godly endurance can seem senseless, due to the increased visibility of the unjust in our world. My inspiration for writing ‘The Gift of Endurance’ came from this exact perception I obtained, at a time when I myself had to overcome these trials. Some that were afflicted by others and some that I inflicted upon myself, mainly due to the lack of mentorship and guidance that was made available to me in that time. However, my desire is not to eradicate pain and suffering but to ensure that your pain and suffering has an everlasting value as you endure for righteousness sake and never as a result of your failures. “Betab does an amazing job of telling her own vulnerable story and pulling out profound truths from the Word of God on how to overcome with endurance. Such helpful insight into The Lord’s promises for our lives. Read this book for inspiration and revelation!” - Josh and Meg Cooke-Campus Pastors Freedom Church
