“We considered him stricken by God. But…”

Did God pour out his wrath on his own Son to satisfy his own need for justice?
Or did God-in-Christ forgive the world even as it unleashed its wrath on him?
Was Christ’s sacrifice the ultimate fulfilment of God’s demand for redemptive bloodshed?
Or was the cross God’s great “No” to that whole system? The church is asking these questions afresh.
And from every stream of Christianity, answers are coming.

Nonviolent Identification& the Victory of Christ
Edited by Brad Jersak and Michael Hardin

Stricken by God combines twenty essays (over 500 pages) from such authors as N.T. Wright, Rowan Williams, Richard Rohr, Miroslav Volf and Marcus Borg. Other contributers include Tony Bartlett, J. Denny Weaver, Sharon Baker, James Alison and Mark Baker. Anglican, Catholic, Anabaptist, Evangelical and Orthodox writers come together to revisit the question of the atonement. Together, they share and develop perspectives of the cross with implications for restorative justice, nonviolence and redemptive suffering.

Jesus once counseled us to “Buy medicine for your eyes from me so you can see, really see”

(Rev. 3:18 MSG). Kissing the Leper is about getting our eyes repaired from religious and cultural prejudice so that we can see Jesus in others, especially those that our world discards as “the least.” The author has compiled the voices and testimonies of historical and contemporary practitioners to develop a devotional theology of encounter. Specifically, he challenges us to meet and welcome Christ in human form from the society’s margins to the banqueting table of God.

Kissing the Leper:

• Part 1. Seeing Jesus in the least of these
• Part 2. Being Jesus to the least of these
• Part 3. Meeting Jesus through the least of these
• Part 4. Joining Jesus at the open table
• Part 5. Following Jesus on the narrow path

Do You Want to Be Free From Fear?

Orange alerts, panic spam, doomsday prophets: Ever since you were born, the government, the media, and religious groups have used fear to control you. What if behind every fear lurked a lie? What if for every lie there stood a truth? And what if that truth could make you fear-free?

Everywhere you look, someone is trying to make you afraid: Be afraid of the terrorists, the liberals, the fundamentalists. Beware of people who are different—strange pigment, strange flags, strange gods. Fear the boogey man, fear the devil, fear the abductor. Fear even the Teletubby. Beware of infectious disease, newfound plagues, incoming comets. Be afraid!

Why is everybody trying to make you hit the panic button? They have an agenda, they need your help, and they enlist that help through fear. “They” are anyone who uses fear to leverage you, to pull your chain, to push your buttons.

The good news is, it CAN stop—today. You can break free from the culture of fear, and Fear No Evil can help!

• Snapshots of fear: Terrorists, presidents, filmmakers, shock-rockers, televangelists, teletubbies, Harry Potter, event scientists. Prepare to be scared!
• Taking the axe to the roots: Deconstructing fear, rooting out fear, rooting out anxiety, and stripping the power of the dreaded “What if…?”
• Reprogramming the fearful: Entering the throne room, living the Psalms, believing the hymns.

Rivers From Eden is a forty-day spiritual exercise

that will help you make Listening Prayer a lifestyle. Walk with Brad and Eden Jersak as you present God with forty life-changing questions and receive His answers.

These daily encounters will lead you to new depths of hearing God’s voice and seeing His face.

Simple Prayer Exercises for Solitude & Community
by Lorie Martin

“This book is a treasure! Invited is both a companion for the quiet places and a manual for the Journey. It is a guide for praying with the Scriptures, for healing, for retreating, and for living in community. Invited is also a valuable handbook for retreat leaders.”

Rev. Dr. Irene Gifford-Cole, Anglican priest, psychologist & spiritual director.

“God told me…”

Why do claims that God speaks today meet with cynicism when even Jesus Christ taught his disciples to expect it? The track record of hucksters and crusaders who have besmirched God’s voice leaves us wondering if there is an authentic revelation.

Where shall we stand?

Nine members of Agora, a newsgroup and think-tank based in Canada, engage in a conversation around the topic of hearing God’s voice. The focus quickly turns to “Listening Prayer” as described in Brad Jersak’s first book, Can You Hear Me? The discussion, with its simultaneous resisting and affirming, reveals the depth of vision and discernment that comes when a variety of “shades” come together.

Hope, Hell & the New Jerusalem

Everlasting hell and divine judgment, a lake of fire and brimstone—these mainstays of evangelical tradition have come under fire once again in recent decades. Would the God of love revealed by Jesus really consign the vast majority of humankind to a destiny of eternal, conscious torment? Is divine mercy bound by the demands of justice? How can anyone presume to know who is saved from the flames and who is not?

Reacting to presumptions in like manner, others write off the fiery images of final judgment altogether. If there is a God who loves us, then surely all are welcome into the heavenly kingdom, regardless of their beliefs or behaviors in this life. Yet, given the sheer volume of threat rhetoric in the Scriptures and the wickedness manifest in human history, the pop-universalism of our day sounds more like denial than hope. Mercy triumphs over judgment; it does not skirt it.

Her Gates Will Never Be Shut endeavors to reconsider what the Bible and the Church have actually said about hell and hope, noting a breadth of real possibilities that undermines every presumption. The polyphony of perspectives on hell and hope offered by the prophets, apostles, and Jesus humble our obsessive need to harmonize every text into a neat theological system. But they open the door to the eternal hope found in Rev. 21-22: the City whose gates will never be shut; where the Spirit and Bride perpetually invite the thirsty who are outside the city to “Come, drink of the waters of life.”
