In The Moon Is Always Round, seminary professor and author Jonathan Gibson uses the vivid imagery of the moon to explain to children how God's goodness is always present, even when it might appear to be obscured by upsetting or difficult circumstances. In this beautiful, full-color illustrated book, he allows readers to eavesdrop on the conversations he had with his young son in response to his sister's death. Father and son share a simple liturgy together that reminds them that, just as the moon is always round despite its different phases, so also the goodness of God is always present throughout the different phases of life. A section in the back of the book offers further biblical help for parents and caregivers in explaining God's goodness to children.

Would you invite your friends and family to a special guest service at church if you knew that was going to be the message? Fear is taboo in Western society. Fear curtails freedom; it crushes dreams; it inhibits people. It should be avoided altogether. But some kinds of fear are healthy - just as some kinds of fearlessness are foolish. There is bad fear and good fear. And, oddly enough, fearing something can mean we are no longer afraid of it. In this short book, David Mears takes us back to the Bible to look again at the fear of God - and more than that, to take delight in it and discover why the fear of the Lord really is 'the beginning of wisdom'. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Matthias Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33082636796035,"sku":"9781922206701","price":9.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0317\/8499\/2899\/products\/original_fg_265_b9b9415b-b248-44bf-a175-356045da58cb.jpg?v=1591951874"},{"product_id":"9781844744312-dig-deeper-tools-to-unearth-the-bibles-treasure","title":"Dig Deeper: Tools to Unearth the Bible's Treasure","description":"\u003cp\u003eIt's all a matter of interpretation. Most conversations I've had with non-Christians about the Bible end up there sooner or later. It's all a matter of interpretation. Sure, you say it means that Jesus is God and that sex outside marriage is wrong and that heaven is only for Christians, but maybe for me it means that Jesus was just a good teacher and sex with anyone is OK as long as you both want it and heaven is for everybody. It's all just a matter of interpretation. Actually, we've all been conditioned to think like that. It's part of the whole philosophical movement called postmodernism, and over the last few decades it has infiltrated the TV shows that we watch and the classrooms that we sit in. Postmodernism teaches that when I come to a piece of literature such as the Bible, what matters is not what it means, but what it means for me. And that might be different from what it means for you. And that's OK. I wonder if you've ever been in a Bible study like Does anyone have any thoughts about verse 1 Person I think it's talking about X, and . . . (blah, blah) . . . Person Yes, I see what you're saying Person A and I totally respect you. For me though it means Y, the opposite of X. Mmmm. Thank you both. Let s move on to verse 2. That's postmodernism in action. The text means one thing for one person and the complete opposite for another, but both interpretations are to be respected and treated as equally valid. But the apostle Paul doesn't see it like that. He thinks that there is a right and a wrong way to understand the Bible. The book is based on the idea of a toolkit. Each chapter introduces you to a separate tool and explains how it works. Although there are illustrations from the Bible throughout, we'll sometimes spend a bit longer on a Worked example to show you how that particular tool really can help us discover something exciting and relevant that the Bible is saying\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IVP UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33083970486403,"sku":"9781844744312","price":27.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0317\/8499\/2899\/files\/original_9781844744312.jpg?v=1764221851"},{"product_id":"9781473614253-my-rock-my-refuge-a-year-of-daily-devotions-in-the-psalms","title":"My Rock; My Refuge - A Year of Daily Devotions in the Psalms","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(US Title: the Songs of Jesus)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew York pastor Timothy Keller is known for his ability to connect a deep understanding of the Bible with contemporary thought and the practical issues we all face in our lives. \u003cem\u003eMy Rock; My Refuge\u003c\/em\u003e - his first devotional, consisting of all new material - offers inspiration for every day of the year, based on the book of Psalms.

As a result, they focus a lot—and rightly so—on what Jesus has done to appease God’s wrath for sin. But how does Jesus Christ actually feel about his people amid all their sins and failures? This book draws us to Matthew 11, where Jesus describes himself as “gentle and lowly in heart,” longing for his people to find rest in him. The gospel flows from God’s deepest heart for his people, a heart of tender love for the sinful and suffering. These chapters take us into the depths of Christ’s very heart for sinners, diving deep into Bible passages that speak of who Christ is and encouraging readers with the affections of Christ for his people.
