Wednesday Giveaway - Life of Jesus

As Christians our faith centers on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. Studying the story of Jesus, in its original context, is then essential to a better understanding of how our faith in Jesus ought to be shaped.

In Life of Jesus, this week’s giveaway, historian John Dickson takes us on a journey to first century Israel so that the story of Jesus can be rooted in the social, political, and theological setting in which it makes sense and comes alive afresh for us.

A helpful resource for anyone studying the life of the Messiah, N.T. Wright endorsed this book saying “John Dickson has done a marvelous job of presenting the story of Jesus, and the full meaning of that story, in a way that is both deeply faithful to the biblical sources and refreshingly relevant to tomorrow's world and church. I strongly recommend this study to anyone who wants to re-examine the deep historical roots of Christian faith and to find them as life-giving as they ever were.”  

The giveaway will run through Thursday, and there are two copies of Life of Jesus up for grabs.

To enter simply comment below with your answer to this question: When you read the phrase “Christ” what do you think of (Messiah, anointed one, divine title, Jesus’ last name, etc.)?
