The 52 Greatest Stories of the Bible – Kenneth Boa and John Alan Turner

Experience the whole story of the Bible like you never have beforeMost people can recount some of the big stories in the Bible – Adam and Eve in the Garden, Noah and the flood, Jonah and the fish, David and Goliath – but relatively few could probably explain the significance of these far-ranging stories to the whole story of Scripture. Are they mere vehicles for ethical teaching? Are they morality lessons? How do they relate to the other stories in Scripture and to your life today? Whether you’ve been reading the Bible all your life or you don’t even know where to start, The 52 Greatest Stories of the Bible will help you connect the stories that you may be familiar with – the Israelites crossing the Red Sea or Jesus multiplying food – to the Biggest Story of all:  a holy God reconciling to Himself a broken and sinful humankind.

All to Jesus:  A Year of Devotions – Robert J. Morgan

And with each description of God’s comprehensive promises, each reminder of our complete blessing in Christ, each appeal for our full and total surrender, His reputation grows larger before our eyes. We see again what He can do. We see again who we can be. From Robert J. Morgan (100 Bible Verses Everyone Should Know by Heart, Then Sings My Soul) comes All to Jesus, a choice sampling of the Bible’s most “all”-encompassing statements, surrounded each day by inspiring stories, personal reflections, and the encouraging assurance that you are cared for in ways you never imagined.

Praying the Names of God – Ann Spangler

A twenty-six-week devotional study by the bestselling coauthor of Women of the Bible.

By understanding the Biblical context in which these names and titles were revealed, readers will gain a more intimate knowledge of Jesus and of his plan for their lives. They will also begin to see how each of His names holds within it a promise:  to be our Teacher, Healer, Friend, and Lord – to be God with Us no matter the circumstances. Prince of Peace, Lamb of God, Bread of Life, Yeshua . . . through His names and titles, we come to understand more fully how Jesus reveals God’s heart to us. “Praying the Names of Jesus” focuses on twenty-six of His most prominent names and titles to provide six-months worth of devotions. Each week provides a unique devotional program designed for personal prayer and study or for use in small groups. “Praying the Names of Jesus” is the companion volume to the bestselling “Praying the Names of God.” In ways both surprising and profound it reveals a rich portrait of Jesus that will move readers toward a deeper experience of His love and mercy.
