Romans Bible Study
Christians in the first century lived in a world ruled by Rome. The vast size of the Roman Empire meant that it incorporated many different people groups who followed many different religions. Christians were thus often confronted with practices mandated by the local authorities where they lived that went against their faith in Jesus. But even more problematic, they were also often confronted with worldviews and systems of belief that went against their faith.This was especially true of the believers who lived in the capital city of Rome. So it was that when Paul decided to visit the city, he first sent them a letter outlining the key principles and "doctrines" of the Christian faith. Paul explained what humans are really like (sinful), what God has done to provide an escape from the consequences of humanity''s sin, and what a lifestyle that goes out of a Christian worldview looks like. Today, we need to know the same! We need to have a deep understanding of what we believe so we know how to respond when faced with other beliefs that go against Christ.Each study in the NIV Application Commentary Resources series employs a three-step process to help you understand both the historical meaning of a biblical text and its relevance in modern times. The original meaning section reveals the questions and concerns the author was addressing. The past to present section then explains what significance the original audience would have found in the passage and what significance you can find in it today. Finally, the questions that accompany each section will help you specifically apply the author''s words and teachings and find meaning in them for what you are facing in your life.Lessons:The Gospel of Righteousness by Faith (Romans 1–32; 3:21–26)Addicted to Sin (Romans 2:1–3:20)The Righteousness of God (Romans 3:21–4:25)Peace and Hope (Romans 5:1–21)Freedom from Sin (Romans 6:1–23)Freedom from the Law (Romans 7:1–25)Life in the Spirit (Romans 8:1–39)The Problem of Israel (Romans 9:1–10:21)Israel''s Future (Romans 11:1–36)The Transformed Life (Romans 12:1–21)Love and Law (Romans 13:1–14)Life Together (Romans 14:1–16:27)

Ancient Israel and Judah
Step into the world of the Hebrew Bible and discover how the contexts of the people who lived in it illuminate and deepen our understanding of the Scriptures.In Ancient Israel and Judah, Beth Tanner takes readers on a compelling journey through the historical and cultural landscapes of ancient Israel and Judah, bringing the Hebrew Bible to life in an approachable manner yet to be achieved.An essential guide for anyone new to biblical study, this book bridges the divide between traditional religious interpretations and academic study, empowering readers to grasp the Bible’s theological themes in their full historical richness. From the origins of the Genesis narratives to the dramatic period of the Maccabees, Tanner skillfully distills centuries of history and complex concepts into an accessible and engaging narrative with relatable insights, offering clarity and context without overwhelming detail.Through an introduction to historical criticism and literary paradigms, readers learn to navigate the Bible’s poetic verses, sagas, and narratives with fresh eyes. Addressing modern misconceptions about biblical history, Tanner reveals how understanding the ancient world enhances both critical and faith-based readings of Scripture. With newfound insight, readers of this book will:• learn why history and context are essential to any interpretation; how historical events are part of the Bible but why history is not its primary purpose, thus alleviating perceived conflicts within the text;• develop an understanding of the story of the Israelites within the history of the ancient world as well as the other groups the people of the Bible encountered;• read the biblical texts with knowledge about the life and worship practices of the people for whom the biblical texts were intended.Moreover, the book’s unique inclusion of the often-overlooked late historical period (1000–33 BCE) sets the stage for the New Testament, offering vital context for students of all levels. Complete with charts, maps, and a glossary, Ancient Israel and Judah is more than a history book—it’s a road map to deeper biblical understanding.

Heart of a Stranger
Angela Buchdahl was born in Korea and grew up in Tacoma, Washington, the daughter of a Korean Buddhist mother and Jewish American father. Profoundly spiritual from a young age, she felt a connection to God when only a child and felt the first stirrings to become a rabbi at age sixteen. Despite the naysayers and periods of self-doubt - would a mixed-race woman ever be seen as authentically Jewish and entitled to lead a congregation - she stayed the course, which took her first to Yale, then to rabbinical school, cantorial school, and finally to the pulpit of one of the largest, most influential congregations in the world. Today, Angela Buchdahl is revered by Jews and non-Jews alike for her invigorating, joyful approach to worship, and her belief in the power of faith, gratitude, and responsibility for each other, regardless of religion. She does not shy away from challenging topics, be it racism within the Jewish community to sexism she confronted when she aspired to the top job. Buchdahl has also been a sought-after leader and voice through some of the most challenging moments in recent history, from the murder of George Floyd to the hostage standoff in Colleyville, Texas to the horrors of October 7th. Buchdahl''s consistent message is that it is up to us to strive for a world of more humanity, especially in today''s challenging times. Angela Buchdahl has gone from outsider to officiant, from feeling estranged to feeling embraced - and she''s emerged with a deep feeling of being bound to a larger whole and mission. Here, she has written a book that is both a memoir and a spiritual guide for everyday living, which is exactly what so many of us crave right now.

Kde vítězí láska, tam se děje Bůh
Výklady biblických textů, které se čtou o nedělích v kostelích a kaplích po celém světě, od profesora Univerzity Karlovy a kazatele Pavla Hoška.
Poetická a přitom přesná řeč. Schopnost vidět a pojmenovat kulturní i společenské souvislosti. A apel na srdce a na osobní víru. Nedělní texty vznikaly po deset let pro Katolický týdeník.
A co autor říká k jejich vznikání?
„Vždycky mám pocity začátečníka. Ale beru to tak, že jsem dostal úkol, který jsem si nevymyslel. Zas jednou se ponořit do svědectví proroků a apoštolů. Nechat se znovu vyvést z míry otázkou, čím nás ta stará moudrá Kniha může oslovit dneska a zítra, ve střední Evropě, na prahu třetího tisíciletí. Těší mě to, i když se mi mírně tají dech. Baví mě sledovat to sršení a jiskření, když prastaré verše hebrejských a řeckých rukopisů promlouvají klidným hlasem do ruchu a shonu moderního světa. A občas, vlastně docela často, jakoby zázrakem najednou zasvítí tenký paprsek světla odněkud shůry. Pramínek nebeské záře, který rozhání stíny a ukazuje cestu v temnotách. A dodává odvahu. A přináší naději. Do velkých i malých životních zápasů, kterým všichni čelíme.“
Nádej nikdy nesklame
Keď sa pozrieme okolo seba, vidíme pochmúrny svet: vojny, chudobu, hladomor, prírodné katastrofy, sociálne konflikty. Napriek tomu nemôžeme ostať pasívni, uzavrieť sa do seba, rezignovať. Nemôžeme stratiť nádej. Prijmime pozvanie pápeža Františka vykročiť na cestu nádeje. Nemýľme si ju však s falošným optimizmom či so zatváraním očí pred realitou.
František upriamuje našu pozornosť na znaky nádeje, ktoré nachádza vo všetkom, čo nás obklopuje: v tvári ženy, ktorá nosí pod srdcom nový život, v tvári chudobného človeka, utečenca hľadajúceho lepší zajtrajšok, v tvári vojaka a civilistu, ktorí sa modlia za návrat domov, alebo starca a dieťaťa, ktorí kráčajú ruka v ruke, slobodne a bezpečne. Poukazuje na konkrétne kroky, aby sme prostredníctvom nádeje vybudovali lepší svet a zároveň čelili veľkým výzvam budúcnosti, ako je rozvoj umelej inteligencie a dôsledky klimatických zmien.
Staňme sa teda pútnikmi nádeje, ktorá nám dáva silu vkročiť do neistej budúcnosti a kráčať vo svetle. Pretože nádej nikdy nesklame.
Duchovné a výchovné spisy Jána Bosca
Svätý Ján Bosco začal svoju pastoračnú činnosť na predmestí Turína. Chudobným mladým ľuďom, ktorí navštevovali oratórium a potrebovali úplne všetko, navrhol jednoduchý spôsob kresťanského života, vďaka ktorému sa mohli stať „potechou príbuzných, cťou vlasti, dobrými občanmi na zemi, aby sa potom jedného dňa stali šťastnými obyvateľmi neba“. Zrodila sa škola mladíckej svätosti, ktorá prinášala ovocie.
O dvadsať rokov neskôr so založením Saleziánskej kongregácie sa obzor dona Bosca rozšíril. Jeho duchovné učenie sa prehĺbilo a stalo sa zásadnejším, komplexnejším. Ale práve v tomto pohybe, ktorý zdôrazňoval absolútny primát Boha a požiadavky jeho nasledovania, sa jasnejšie vynorila aj podstata tej „jednoduchej“ duchovnej ponuky, ktorú dal don Bosco mladým ľuďom z prvého oratória. Ostáva vyjadrená obyčajným, neprikrášleným a každodenným jazykom.
Cieľom tejto antológie je uviesť čitateľa do atmosféry oratória, umožniť mu vstúpiť do vnútorných perspektív dona Bosca, oboznámiť ho s jeho duchovným učením a jazykom. Nie je to súhrnné predstavenie jeho spirituality, ale zbierka „ponaučení“, ako má žiť dobrý kresťan a dobrý salezián.
Kniha sa skladá zo štyroch častí:
1. Don Bosco, duchovný vodca mladých;
2. Usmernenia pre kresťanský život;
3. Zasvätení Bohu na jeho slávu a na spásu mladých;
4. Záverečné odporúčania otca a obavy zakladateľa.

Christ, Crime, and Moral Judgment
After a career of teaching law, ethics, and the relationship between criminal activity and the moral imperative, Charles Nemeth wants to revisit the post-modern 'caricature' of the God who is so loving and merciful that one overlooks the urgency of the human requirement to be good at all times. Nemeth traces the modern shift in considering God as judge to the God who just wants to wipe away tears. If we look in Scripture, there are harsh words for the person who dismisses moral action as less than a continual call to evaluation and conversion. One also sees the detrimental effect of granting political underpinnings to all interpretations of the Bible and its indications of what righteous action is. Nemeth asserts that not only is the measure of law worthless without a kind of hardness toward offenders, but charity itself has no backbone without justice. Restoration requires judgment, but the Judge who speaks harshly is the one who cultivates the desire for his softness. Post-modern scholars don't worry about receiving God's mercy, but they really ought to define the parameters of human responsibility. Any human attempt to define mercy and compassion on the part of God will always fall short, we ought to save our energies to live up to the moral life and take Christ as a perfect example and proof of the possibility.
The Vision of Ephesians
In The Vision of Ephesians Tom Wright takes you on an exciting journey through one of the most profound texts in the New Testament. In just a few powerful pages, Ephesians presents a sweeping panorama of the Christian gospel, tracing God's redemptive plan from the creation of the world to the time when God will be 'all in all'. At its core, the book highlights the transformative work of Jesus the Messiah and the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit. Wright masterfully unpacks Paul's vision of the church - what it is, what it is for, and what it means to be part of the new humanity that God is creating in Jesus. This breath-taking vision of God's purpose for humanity comes into sharper focus when we remember that Paul was writing from prison, urging his readers to engage in spiritual warfare, standing firm in the victory won on the cross as that victory unfolds across the world. The Vision of Ephesians is a must-read for anyone seeking to grasp the depth and beauty of one of the New Testament's most captivating letters.
