Richie Halversen Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

Christian witness must spend adequate time both below the cross and before the empty grave. It is both crucifixion and resurrection. It’s hope without ignoring the harsh reality of life. It’s a love willing to sacrifice in the present so that it can give a promise for the future.

Out of stock

🤯🤯 “Sin is the human attempt to fixate the present and resist God’s future—that is, to absolutize our part and sacrifice God’s whole” — Ted Peters, in his book “Sin”

@pbandjky I also like Karl Barth’s book on homiletics, on the older knots specifically on the subject of preaching Christ his preaching is of course buried Christ centered. HMS Richards book “feed my sheep” is a good one too

Christ’s Resurrection not only gives us hope for the future but right now! It not only affects the way we die, but the way we live. Stop putting heaven-living on hold—victorious living on layaway. We are Resurrection people right now. Living right side up in an upside down world

@pbandjky One of the best! The same author wrote “preaching Christ from Ecclesiastes” Timothy Keller’s book “Preaching” is great. Spurgeon‘s “lectures to his students” “Christ centered Preaching”by Chapel. “Him We Proclaim: Preaching Christ from All Scripture”by Dennis E. Johnson is good.

Without the Holy Spirit we’re not the body of Christ, we’re the corpse of Christ. We’re not the bride of Christ, we’re the corpse bride. We need Truth & Spirit! Breathe on us the breath of life and bring these dead bones back to life! #gladstone2022 #revitalization #metamorphosis

Great parallel and insight by Richard Hays from his book "Echoes of Scripture in the Gospels" "Like David, Jesus is the anointed king (cf. I Sam 16.1-13) whose authority has not yet been recognized within Israel, save by his fugitive band of followers." #TheBibleIsAboutJesus
