In spite of its enormous historical significance and increased contemporary interest, this is the first general introduction to the spirituality of the Anabaptist tradition. Anabaptist spirituality has been described as "both Catholic and Protestant," a sixteenth-century ascetic lay reform movement inspired both by currents of pre-Reformation devotion to Christ and the Reformation call to return to Scripture. Because of their insistence on adult baptism Anabaptists -- often illiterate artisans and peasants with no formal theological education -- met widespread persecution. Arnold Snyder's sympathetic study draws on court records to give an intimate glimpse into their beliefs, practices, and spirituality. As well as inspiring such groups as the Mennonites, the Amish and various groups of Brethren and Baptists, Anabaptist ideas have profoundly influenced individuals and movements throughout the churches into modern times.

This publication offers a guide for reading Sunday Gospels and meditating Homilies every week for the Liturgical Cycle C. A close familiarity with the words of the Gospels brings us into consonance with Jesus, inspires in us his love for the world, builds up enthusiasm for his project of the Kingdom of God, and infuses his Spirit in us. Without our scarcely noticing it, we become Christians. This personal meditation on the words of Jesus transforms us more than all the explanations, sermons, and exhortations which reach us from the outside. People change from within.

Publisher description: The moral life, say the authors, is a living out of one's biblical faith. But too often, time has made the people of the Bible seem remote. Here is an invitation into a deeper experience of biblical characters, to understand that they were subject to the same wide range of positive and negative emotions as we experience today. Despite their fear or anger, these characters were willing to listen to God and ultimately became models of faith and trust. The reflections here help their voices cross the centuries and be heard by us with undiminished clarity, directness, and power. Juxtaposing Old and New Testament characters in a unique way, the book includes stories of Abraham, Sarah and Hagar, David, Ruth, Mary, the prodigal son, Jesus, the beloved disciple, and more. All of them reveal the demands of discipleship and conversion and help readers recognize God's way of acting in their own lives. Short, simple vignettes allow for quick reading and handy personal use.

Travel with Adam Hamilton as he retraces the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. Once again, Hamilton approaches his subject matter with thoughtfulness and wisdom, just as he did with Jesus' crucifixion in 24 Hours That Changed the World and with Jesus' birth in The Journey. Read The Way on your own or, for a more in-depth study, enjoy it with a small group or part of a 40-day church-wide emphasis during Lent and Easter or anytime of the year. Using historical information, archaeological data, and stories of the faith, Hamilton follows in the footsteps of Jesus from his baptism to the temptations to the heart of his ministry, including the people he loved, the parables he taught, the enemies he made, and the healing he brought. This 40-day focus will help you and your group grow deeper in their faith, learn more about the life of Christ, spend time daily reading and reflecting upon the Scriptures, and invite families, through the children's and youth studies, to grow together in their faith. Additional resources include a DVD, devotional, youth and children editions, and a worship download to help with sermon planning.
