Dasar relasi Allah dengan umat-Nya dinyatakan melalui perjanjian (berith). Perjanjian yang dinyatakan Allah tersebut merupakan wujud dari kasih karunia-Nya. Allah berinisiatif dalam perjanjian-Nya berdasarkan anugerah kasih-Nya. Umat yang sebelumnya tidak mengenal Allah dan kasih-karunia-Nya dimampukan untuk menjalin hubungan perjanjian dengan Allah. Itu sebabnya umat menyandang gelar sebagai umat perjanjian. Perjanjian kasih karunia Allah melalui para bapa leluhur telah disempurnakan dalam perjanjian penebusan Kristus. Melalui Kristus, Allah tidak hanya mengingat, tetapi juga menyertai dalam setiap pergumulan umat. Itu sebabnya setiap umat percaya dipanggil untuk berjalan bersama di dalam kasih sehingga mereka saling mendukung, mendoakan, dan melayani. Melalui tulisan buku Ziarah I: Bertumbuh dalam Anugerah Allah, kita diajak untuk mengalami proses pertumbuhan iman yang beralaskan pada rahmat Allah yang membebaskan di dalam karya penebusan Kristus dan Roh Kudus-Nya.

"Everyone who believes in God at all believes that He knows what you and I are going to do tomorrow." - C. S. Lewis. This understanding of God's foreknowledge has united the church for twenty centuries. But advocates of "open theism" are presenting a different vision of God and a different view of the future. The rise of open theism within evangelicalism has raised a host of questions. Was classical theism decisively tainted by Greek philosophy? How should we understand passages that tell us that God repents? Are essentials of biblical Christianity -- like the inerrancy of Scripture, the trustworthiness of God, and the gospel of Christ -- at stake in this debate? Where, when, and why should we draw new boundaries -- and is open theism beyond them? Beyond the Bounds brings together a respected team of scholars to examine the latest literature on open theism, address these questions, and give guidance to the church in this time of controversy. - Back cover.

In recent years, notable scholars have argued that the Protestant Reformation unleashed interpretive anarchy on the church. Is it time to consider the Reformation to be a 500-year experiment gone wrong? World-renowned evangelical theologian Kevin Vanhoozer thinks not. While he sees recent critiques as legitimate, he argues that retrieving the Reformation's core principles offers an answer to critics of Protestant biblical interpretation. Vanhoozer explores how a proper reappropriation of the five solas--sola gratia (grace alone), sola fide (faith alone), sola scriptura (Scripture alone), solus Christus (in Christ alone), and sola Deo gloria (for the glory of God alone)--offers the tools to constrain biblical interpretation and establish interpretive authority. He offers a positive assessment of the Reformation, showing how a retrieval of "mere Protestant Christianity" has the potential to reform contemporary Christian belief and practice. This provocative response and statement from a top theologian is accessibly written for pastors, church leaders, and students. - Publisher.

Haddon Robinson's Biblical Preaching has become a modern classic on the preparation and delivery of expository sermons. Much has changed, however, in twenty years and Robinson has undertaken the task of updating his work to benefit a new generation of preachers who will speak to a markedly different world. While retaining the original outline of the book and Robinson's ten-stage process of sermon development, this new edition offers significant improvements. Many of the illustrations and arguments have been updated, the prose has been changed to gender-inclusive language, each chapter is enhanced with suggestions for further study, and the discussions of narrative and inductive preaching have been expanded. - Publisher.

Purpose Driven Romance The last thing singles want is more rules. But if you’re looking for an intentional, God-pleasing game plan for finding a future spouse, Joshua Harris delivers an appealing one. A compelling new foreword, an all-new “8 Great Courtship Conversations” section, and updated material throughout makes this five-year revision of the original Boy Meets Girl a must-have! Harris illustrates how biblical courtship—a healthy, joyous alternative to recreational dating—worked for him and his wife. Boy Meets Girl presents an inspiring, practical example for readers wanting to pursue the possibility of marriage with someone they may be serious about. Are you ready for “romance with purpose”? If you’re fed up with self-centered relationships that end in disillusionment, it’s time to rethink romance. Finding the loving, committed relationship you want shouldn’t mean throwing away your hopes, your integrity, or your heart. In Boy Meets Girl, Joshua Harris —the guy who kissed dating goodbye—makes the case for courtship. As old-fashioned as it might sound, courtship is what modern day relationships desperately need. Think of it as romance chaperoned by wisdom, cared for by community, and directed by God’s Word. Filled with inspiring stories from men and women who have rediscovered courtship, Boy Meets Girl is honest, romantic, and refreshingly biblical. Keep God at the center of your relationship as you discover how to: • Set a clear course for your romance • Get closer without compromise • Find support in a caring community • Deal with past sexual sin • Make the right decisions about your future New! Courtship Conversations Eight ideas for great dates that will help grow and guide your relationship. Story Behind the Book “I wrote I Kissed Dating Goodbye to challenge singles to drop the worldly approach to serial dating and reconsider the way they pursued romance in light of God’s Word. Since then, I’ve received letters asking questions like, So, what comes between friendship and marriage? and, How can you know when you are ready for marriage? Boy Meets Girl answers those questions. Now as a happily married man I can look back on my courtship with Shannon and see from personal experience that God is faithful. If you trust Him enough to wait on romance in dating, He will lovingly guide you as you pursue it in courtship…right to that wonderful moment when you kneel together at the altar.” — Joshua Harris
