On the night before he died, Jesus made this promise to his disciples: “If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free” (John 8:31-32). With Jesus to the Cross makes it easy to dive into the Lenten Sunday Mass readings. Gather a small group weekly to discuss them, or consider the thought-provoking questions on your own. This guide includes every-thing you need to lead a small group as a facilitator or to follow the study as an individual. The Church teaches us that God speaks to us through his word: “In the sacred books, the Father who is in heaven meets His children with great love and speaks with them” (Dei Verbum, 21). Prepare to hear from the Lord this Lent and to fully experience the joy of the resurrection this Easter!
Jesus has always invited and challenged his disciples to follow him in the way of redemptive suffering, the way of the cross. This, according to Joel Green, is the very heart of Mark's gospel. It is also the heart of discipleship today. In six engaging chapters, Green shows how Mark unfolds the drama of Jesus's mission to suffer for others; how this mission was not initially understood by the first disciples, and how all this can transform our own understanding of the call to follow. Each chapter deepens our sense of the integrity of Mark and challenges us to follow Jesus in our own practice of discipleship and experience with suffering today. The Way of the Cross is for individuals and groups who are serious about Bible study and about the relevance of such study to their lives. Each chapter concludes with a set of questions for reflection and discussion.
Why should the cross—an object of Roman distaste and Jewish disgust—be the emblem of our worship and the axiom of our faith? And what does it mean for us today? In this thoughtful, comprehensive study of Scripture, tradition and the modern world, John R. W. Stott brings you face to face with the centrality of the cross in God's plan of redemption.
Hour of Hope is strictly sermons born from concrete experieces; relatively to the author's personal experiences and those gathered from others within the scope of his pastoral ministry. Hence, it is neither a systematic exegesis of the scriptures nor a doctrinal teaching, rather a look at human experiences of suffering and God's intervention in the light of the gospels. It is meant to encourage all who suffer that our God in Jesus Christ is always available to bring them comfort and healing.
At a time when the call to imitate Jesus comes loaded with moralistic overtones, Jason Hood offers a refreshing look at imitation on the Bible's terms. Drawing our attention to the practice that Paul taught "everywhere in every church," Hood's study yields insights into Scripture, the church fathers and Christian culture.
Proclamation of the crucified Messiah is always close at hand when one attempts even the most cursory articulation of the Christian faith. Viewed simultaneously as scandal and eschatological turning-point the cross of Christ is the cornerstone of Christian faith and praxis. This is not to say that the crucifixion of Jesus has at all times and all places been subjected to a single interpretation by Christian believers. Already in the dawning years of the Christian movement Jesus' disciples understood his death in numerous ways, utilizing a variety of images. This study takes as its primary points of departure the prominence of the cross-event for Christians and the variety of it interpretations. Here we seek a partial answer to the question how earliest Christianity understood the death of Jesus. Originally, this study took the form of a 1985 University of Aberdeen dissertation.
