| Genesis |
| Christians often use terms like providence and sovereignty without realizing the full impact of their meaning. In the Joseph narrative, Genesis 37-50, God’s sovereign providence is seen to be more than a theological concept essential to clear Christian thinking. It’s set forth as the means by which the Christian can survive and thrive in a world marred by evil and disappointment. |

| Ruth |
Family tragedy . . . economic despair . . . uncompromising loyalty . . . hopeful opportunities . . . romantic possibilities . . . divine intervention . . . joyful resolution. All the essential ingredients of great drama are found in the brilliantly inspired story of Ruth. And yet, it’s a story that serves to contribute to the unfolding of a much larger and more significant drama: the sacred romance that exists between God and His people. |

| Nehemiah: A Profile Of Holy Ambition |
| He was driven to accomplish a great work for the glory and honor of Yahweh: the reconstruction of the shattered walls of Jerusalem. But as is so often the case, it proved to be a prelude to a far greater task: the restoration of God’s people to covenantal faithfulness. Through it all, Nehemiah the cupbearer provides us with a profile of holy ambition, and ultimately prepares us for the man of zeal par excellence: Jesus Christ. |

Happiness and sorrow . . . Prosperity and adversity . . . faithfulness and apostasy . . . loyalty and betrayal . . . blessedness and chastisement. All of the varied complexities of life are seen in the ancient and inspired hymnal we refer to as the Psalms. More significantly, it is the majestic greatness of a God defiant of domestication that shines through with stunning clarity. |

| Isaiah: The Justification Of God In The Salvation Of Sinners |
| Throughout the history of the Church people have hotly debated the subject of justification: “How can a sinner be made right with God?” Perhaps another question should be equally important: “How can God be right in accepting a sinner?” After all, isn’t He holy and just . . . and human beings fallen and defiant? It is Isaiah 52:13—53:12 that displays the glorious means of reconciliation between these two alienated parties. |

| Jonah |
Early in the Old Testament God declared His far-reaching intention to bless all the nations of the earth; a promise ultimately fulfilled in the saving accomplishments of Jesus Christ. But God’s people have not always shared that ambition, often regarding unconverted people with contempt rather than compassion. In the compelling narrative of Jonah the ugliness of spiritual exclusivity is exposed as directly antithetical to the heart of a God who loves the world. |

| Revelation |
| Considered by many to be the most perplexing portion of sacred Scripture, its essential message is straightforward and relevant: The Lion/Lamb has conquered His enemies, and we as His people will share in that conquest as we persevere in faithfulness to Him. Rather than a titillating checklist of future events, the Revelation of Jesus Christ is the final installment of God’s word for the practical benefit of all Christians everywhere. |

| Renewing Your Passion For The Church |
| Contempt for the Bride of Christ is fast becoming a popular mantra on the part of Christian evangelicals. But it must be asked: How can one profess love for the Savior and simultaneously despise the people for whom He gave His life? In passionate challenge, this series establishes the glorious dignity of the Church and the priority it must occupy in the affections and efforts of all God’s people. |

| Doctrines of Grace |
Christians often speak about being saved by grace. But what does this mean? Does God save us apart from our willing cooperation? Does God’s grace invalidate the demand for our obedience? Why do some people embrace the Gospel while others adamantly refuse it? Is our experience of salvation, from God’s perspective, a predetermined purpose or heartfelt hope? |

| The Vitality Of The Spirit |
| The Holy Spirit. Is He an actual person of equal status with God the Father and God the Son, or merely a literary personification of divine power? May Christians seek the Spirit’s empowerment for ministry, or was this a phenomenon unique to the epoch of the early Christians? Beginning with the teachings of Jesus, and then moving to the apostolic contributions, this series embarks on a fuller and richer understanding “the Cinderella of the Trinity.” |
