Today, Roberta talks to Gordon Jackson about his new book Always Ready: A Christian Mandate.Always Ready—A Christian Mandateis a series of reflections on the need for Christians to be responsive at all times to God’s leading.Based on Jesus’ parable of the ten virgins, in Matthew 25, these reflections explore various aspects of readiness (or unreadiness) in the believer’s life. Building on this parable, and Jesus’ own example of how He was ready at all times to live out his Father’s will, the book’s forty-one entries examine a wide range of topics related to “Christian readiness.” The entries are divided into several sections, such as “Getting Ready” and “Dealing with Unreadiness.”Also addressed is the problem of misguided readiness, such as when Jesus encountered with the hardworking Martha fussing over having everything ready for His visit when she should have focused on Him instead. Another section deals with the need to be in a state of perpetual readiness for end death.Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.

Why did he wash the disciples’ feet? Why was he crowned with thorns? Why was he silent before Herod? What Depths of Love allows readers to slow down and meditate on these and other fascinating details of Christ’s final moments on Earth.Spurgeon’s deep understanding of the cross and resurrection, made accessible to modern readers, will enrich your walk with Christ, help you cherish the glorious hope of salvation, and encourage you to proclaim him boldly. From Gethsemane to Golgotha to the empty grave, these sermons proclaim Christ crucified and risen, the blazing center of Spurgeon’s theology and ministry.If you pick up this book outside of the Lent and Easter season, fear not! As editor Geoffrey Chang points out, Spurgeon would say not to worry too much about the church calendar but make it your ambition to repent and meditate on Christ crucified all year round.Forty daily devotions to help you grow in your love for Christ and be renewed by the glorious truths of the cross and resurrection.Third book in the Old Made New series, making the teaching of theologians and pastors who have left us a rich heritage of faith accessible for modern-day readers.Compiled by Geoffrey Chang, curator of the Spurgeon Library at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.

Today, Roberta talks to Dave Boden about his new book Parallel Faith: Walking alongside Others on Their Journey to Christ, available from Hendrickson Publishers.Are you ready to discover how to walk alongside others on their journey to Christ? Learn how to walk parallel with others with purpose and help them discover Jesus from their starting point, not yours.Everyone takes little steps toward Jesus before they can take big steps with and for him. This is a process that starts long before people ever enter a church building, especially as the gap between the church and culture grows ever wider. This book will help equip you to handle the early stages of discipling others with care, address the stumbling blocks that hold them back, as well as redefine how you see your own identity as an ambassador of Christ.You will learn how to be better prepared to answer questions about your faith and how to share the gospel in a way that resonates with other people and their culture. There are many ways we can walk with others and point them to Jesus: We can use our creativity to create curiosity, and hospitality can mean so much more than a warm welcome. If we teach like Jesus, then we will use everyday moments to impart Scripture, share stories, and offer next steps to those with whom we’re walking alongside.Discover the latest Christian books and meet the authors behind them on Author's Corner, where Roberta Foster explores new releases in faith-based publishing.
