The issue of idolatry has been with the human race for thousands of years; the subtle temptation is always to take what is good and turn it into the ultimate good, elevating it above all other things in the search for security and meaning. In this timely and challenging book, New York pastor Timothy Keller looks at the issue of idolatry throughout the Bible - from the worship of actual idols in the Old Testament, to the idolatry of money by the rich young ruler when he was challenged by Jesus to give up all his wealth.

New York pastor and acclaimed author Timothy Keller is widely known and respected for his compelling preaching, described by The New York Times as what has 'helped turn Dr. Keller...into the pastor many call Manhattan's leading evangelist'.

The New Testament begins not with a dramatic narrative or lofty poetry but with a genealogy. Provocatively, Matthew's Gospel includes women in Jesus' family line - something that wasn't customary in an ancient culture, where women were largely powerless and uninfluential. In this surprising take on the Christmas story, Tim Keller reveals how, by focusing on the women in Jesus' birth narratives, a colourful, scandalous and refreshing tale of grace emerges.

Die Auferstehung Jesu ist das Herzstück des christlichen Glaubens. Sie bringt die Kraft Gottes, die eines Tages die Welt heilen und erneuern wird, in unser heutiges Leben. Diese Macht ist jetzt zwar nur teilweise da, jedoch wesentlich - und das gibt Christen eine realistische, aber unbändige Hoffnung. Es ist eine Hoffnung auf Veränderung in unserem Leben und in unserer Gesellschaft - eine Hoffnung, die Christen in jeder Hinsicht verändert und jeden Aspekt unseres Lebens prägt.

Ist der Beruf nur "Job" zum Broterwerb, in dem man sich anständig verhalten und, sofern Christ, möglichst Zeugnis von seinem Glauben ablegen sollte? Oder ist alle Arbeit, ob mit den Händen oder dem Kopf, ein Zeichen unserer Menschenwürde - weil sie das Bild Gottes, des Schöpfers, in uns spiegelt? Tim Keller wendet in seiner unnachahmlichen Art biblische Weisheit auf unser Leben an und gibt inspirierende Antworten auf die zentralen Fragen.

Warum gibt es so viel Schmerz und Leid in der Welt? Wie können wir mit Leid, das uns persönlich trifft, umgehen, sodass wir daran nicht zerbrechen, sondern wachsen? Unzählige Bücher sind geschrieben worden, um sich diesem Problem philosophisch und intellektuell zu nähern. Ebenso zahllos sind die Bücher und Filme, die uns persönliche Geschichten über das Leid erzählen. Timothy Keller bindet beide Ebenen zusammen - und findet die Antwort in dem, was die Bibel zum Leid zu sagen hat.

Unsere moderne Kultur will uns glauben machen, dass es bei der Ehe vor allem darum geht, dass man verliebt ist und dass man "den Passenden" gefunden hat. Und aus "bis dass der Tod uns scheidet" ist geworden: "Solange meine Bedürfnisse befriedigt werden." Solange wir nicht fähig sind, die Ehe durch die Brille der Bibel zu betrachten und nicht durch die engen Sehschlitze unserer Kultur, werden wir nicht in der Lage sein, fundierte Entscheidungen über unsere eigene eheliche Zukunft zu treffen.

In an age where pleasing people, puffing up your ego and building your résumé are seen as the methods to "make it", the Apostle Paul calls us to find true rest in blessed self forgetfulness. In this short and punchy book, best selling author Timothy Keller, shows that gospel humility means we can stop connecting every experience, every conversation with ourselves and can thus be free from self condemnation. A truly gospel humble person is not a self-hating person or a self-loving person, but a self-forgetful person.

If life is a journey, there are few events as significant as birth, marriage and death. These are the moments in which we experience our greatest happiness and our deepest grief.

Dan Strange encourages Christians to engage with everything they watch, to read and play in a positive and discerning way. He also teaches Christians how to think and speak about culture in a way that plugs in to a bigger and better reality - the story of King Jesus, and his cosmic plan for the world. It's possible to watch TV and read novels and play video games in a way that actually feeds our faith, rather than withers it. It's even possible for you - yes, you - to be that person who starts off talking to a mate about last night's football and ends up talking about Jesus.

Our world has been torn asunder by racial, ethnic, and ideological differences. It is seen in our politics, felt in our families, and ingrained in our theology. Sadly, the church has often reinforced these ethnic and racial divides. To cast off the ugliness of disunity and heal our fractured humanity, we must cultivate spiritual practices that help us pursue beautiful community. In The Beautiful Community, pastor and theologian Irwyn Ince boldly unpacks the reasons for our divisions while gently guiding us toward our true hope for wholeness and reconciliation.

In this book, Jake Meador diagnoses our society's decline as the failure of a particular story we've told about ourselves: the story of modern liberalism. He shows us how that story has led to our collective loss of meaning, wonder, and good work, and then recovers each of these by grounding them in a different story - a story rooted in the deep tradition of the Christian faith.
