今天，基督徒对教会使命的定义比以往任何时候都要宽泛、多变。作为基督的身体我们是朝着相同的使命迈进，还是各行其是？有人认为，教会的使命是对抗不公，减轻苦难，做更多的事来展现神对世人的爱。也有人担心，教会面临着不以神为中心的危险，因此更强调福音的宣讲。对教会使命的误解似乎依然存在。凯文-德扬和纪格睿认为，只要我们采用正确的范畴，并在相同的圣经根基上构建我们的使命神学，福音派就能达成许多共识。作者解释了神国、福音和社会正义等关键概念，让我们有了一致的步调，推动我们投身于教会真正的使命。

It has been five hundred years since Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door of the All Saints'' Church in Wittenberg, Germany. Luther''s theses called for the reform of the church and served as the catalyst for the Protestant Reformation. Its impact is still felt today. This Bible study examines the five core truths that came from the Reformation, now referred to as the solas. Group members will explore these essential convictions of the faith and emerge more immersed in the gospel of Jesus Christ. The solas include: Sola Scriptura (by Scripture alone) Sola gratia (by grace alone) Sola fide (through faith alone) Solus Christus (through Christ alone) Soli Deo gloria (glory to God alone) How is the Reformation still relevant today? As political pressure mounts, morality drifts with today''s culture, and evangelicalism becomes more and more refined in a post-Christian world, it''s even more important to hold the convictions of the great Reformation closer than ever. In short, the solas point us to vibrant Christian community as well as personal identity in Christ. As you''ll see in this study, the solas are more than cold Latin terms that academics throw around in church-history books. The five solas, like the Reformation itself, are intensely practical. They were the DNA of the Reformation and are still the DNA of the church today. They are grounded in a real-life, everyday following of Jesus. They''re the most important, basic scriptural truths you can ever believe. We stand on the shoulders of Christians in the past, and knowing where we came from will help us keep moving forward with passion and biblical clarity. Echoes of the Reformation Bible Study Book includes small-group experiences for six sessions, individual study opportunities, applicable Scripture, "How to Use This Study," and tips for leading a group.

Several of us at 9Marks recently spent a long afternoon with a wise old friend talking about the conversation evangelicals are having about the mission of the church. There are two basic mistakes people keep making in this conversation, said our friendly sage. On the one hand, some people pit good things against one another-bodies versus souls, this world versus the next, and so forth. This group needs to view human beings whole cloth.On the other hand, some people fail to hold up eternal and temporal realities next to one another and ask which is more important. Everything is crammed under the label "equally important." But that doesn''t make sense. We need to treat the weighty things as weighty, and the weightiest things as the weightiest.Notice then what our friend was doing: he was avoiding the "either/or" as well as a simplistic "both/and." He was instead going for what Tim Keller, refer-ring to the relationship between evangelism and social justice, calls an "inseparable asymmetry." Things can be stuck together, but still differ greatly in their importance.Whatever you might think about our friend''s counsel, the conversation about the church''s mission is difficult, which is why we are devoting this Journal to reviewing the books on the topic. That way, you don''t have to just hear from us, but from people who have thought about these issues longer and more carefully than we have.

Our culture''s assault on gender differences and authority is generationally urgent because it''s unique to this Western moment, this time and place. So we must not take either set of problems out of our sights: the generationally urgent challenges to difference and authority andthe universally chronic challenge to equality. All this leads to our present moment: a reckoning for complementarianism.The task for complementarians more than ever is to continue reforming ourselves according to God''s Word. We must work to understand authority and difference as well as equality from the Bible. A right understanding and practice of each will be the best defense against abuse and abdication both. That way we will "Keep [our] conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when we speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation" (1 Peter 2:12).

Una grieta en la santidad es no interesarnos mucho en ser santos o, por lo menos, no entender lo que significa.

Este es un libro sobre el poder de Dios para ayudarnos a crecer en santidad y disfrutar del proceso de transformación.

Die Bibel erzählt eine große Geschichte, die sich um Jesus und das Evangelium dreht. In dieser vollwertigen Kinderbibel der Serie »Die größte Geschichte« zeigt Bestsellerautor Kevin DeYoung, wie sich dieser rote Faden durch die gesamte Bibel zieht. Er beschreibt in 104 Kapiteln vom ersten Buch Mose bis zur Offenbarung, wie alles mit dem großen Rettungsplan Gottes zusammenhängt. Kinder und Erwachsene finden so leicht verständlich und ansprechend vertieften Zugang zur fesselnden Story der Bibel, da sie detaillierter als die kleine Ausgabe viele verschiedene Geschichten aus dem Alten und Neuen Testament erzählt. Jedes Kapitel schließt mit einem passenden Gebet ab. Die Kinderbibel eignet sich deshalb hervorragend zum gemeinsamen Lesen in der Familie, zur Verwendung in der Familienandacht, zum Vorlesen als Gute-Nacht-Geschichte oder zum Gebrauch im Kindergottesdienst. Ein weiteres Merkmal von »Die größte Geschichte« sind die ausdrucksstarken und detailreichen Illustrationen des preisgekrönten Künstlers Don Clark. Als besonderes Highlight liegt dem Buch ein Poster mit den wunderschönen Motiven bei.
