Did Jesus Really Say He Was God?
How to Make Sense of Jesus' Divine ClaimsDo you ever wonder if Jesus really claimed to be God? Maybe you've heard people say, "Jesus never said he was God," or you've been asked, "Why believe Jesus is divine if he never claimed it?" These challenges aren't just from non-Christians--they show up in church, too. Even if you're not coming from a place of skepticism, you might still question how well church teachings about Jesus match up with what he actually said. So, did the historical Jesus really claim to be divine?This book is here to give you confidence in the historicity of Jesus' claim to divinity. It's designed to help you explain your faith in a world that increasingly doubts the Bible's portrayal of Jesus. Instead of focusing on what Jesus' followers believed, this book takes a different approach--it looks at what Jesus' enemies thought. How did they interpret his words and actions? Their perspective can help you understand the historical validity of Jesus' divine claim.In this book, biblical scholar Mikel Del Rosario uses historiography to examine claims about Jesus' divinity, analyzes ancient Greco-Roman, Jewish, and biblical sources to understand how Jesus' words and actions were interpreted by his adversaries and followers, and argues that Jesus claimed divine authority, a claim supported by strong historical evidence.If you're a Christian, this book will equip you to defend your faith against theories that suggest Jesus only claimed human authority, not divine. If you're someone who sees Christianity differently, this book offers a serious investigation into the claims of the historical Jesus, providing evidence that any theory of his identity must address. Whether you're searching for answers to your own questions or trying to share about Jesus with others, this book will help you communicate Jesus' divine claim with clarity and confidence.

Living Out Loud on Purpose
Living Out Loud on Purpose is not about being loud in volume-it's about being loud in clarity. It's knowing who you are, whose you are, and why you're here. It's showing up with authenticity in rooms that once intimidated you. It's declaring, "I will not shrink to fit spaces God called me to transform."This kind of living costs something. It will cost your comfort, your excuses, and sometimes even your approval rating. But what you gain is far greater-alignment with heaven, impact on earth, and the unshakable joy of walking in divine assignment.You weren't called to echo the world. You were called to embody the kingdom. So speak when it's easier to stay silent. Move when it's easier to stand still. And trust that when you live out loud, heaven backs every step.

Tending to Stories in Feminist Theologies
Tending to Stories in Feminist Theologies is interested in the place of story-tellers in communities of hope. Where some theologies wrestle for clarity of definition, feminist and other theologies of liberation begin from experience and tend towards story as a vehicle for speaking of the Divine. Ambiguity and precision both find their place. This collection embraces different materials to explore the place of stories and narrative within feminist theology, to explore how meaning 'happens', to seek justice, and to forge compassion. As for theology, so too with form. This volume does not just discuss but actively demonstrates a variety of ways in which stories can be heard and held. Between and within chapters, the authors weave together artwork, literature, creative non-fiction, and poetic form with critically informed and academic exposition to invite reflection on the place of story in creating solidarity and enabling community. The book contributes to scholarly conversations on feminist theological method, on the relationship between the arts and theology, and on the dialogue between secular and sacred in Australasia and elsewhere.
Tantra of Tibet
Tantra of Tibet: Karmamudrā, Sacred Eros, and the Cross-Cultural Science of AwakeningWhen it comes to Tibetan sexual yoga, the modern reader finds little that feels both reliable and alive. On one side are academic works: meticulous in translation, exhaustive in annotation, yet strangely barren. They leave us with definitions but not the fire that once made these practices transformative. On the other side are glossy paperbacks and weekend workshops, which borrow the vocabulary of tantra while discarding its discipline. Here eros is commodified into "sacred sex," presented as entertainment or therapy, stripped of its context and consequence.Between these extremes, something essential is missing: a voice both trustworthy and accessible, rooted in lineage yet responsive to the present.Tantra of Tibet: Karmamudrā, Sacred Eros, and the Cross-Cultural Science of Awakening seeks to fill that gap. It is not a manual of technique, but a map and a mirror: a map showing how karmamudrā - the "action seal" of Highest Yoga Tantra - fits into the wider Buddhist path, and a mirror in which readers may glimpse both distortions and possibilities.This is not a book about indulgence or titillation. It is about eros as a force of liberation - when harnessed with vows, compassion, and subtle-body mastery. It is about how passion, so often the root of suffering, can become a gateway to awakening.The Roots of the PathKarmamudrā is not a modern invention. It emerges from the flowering of Indian tantra between the seventh and tenth centuries, which produced the Guhyasamāja, Hevajra, and Cakrasaṃvara Tantras. These works offered a radical vision: that desire and embodiment, long treated as obstacles, could themselves become the path to liberation.In Tibet, these teachings entered comprehensive yogic systems. The Kagyu preserved them in the Six Yogas of Naropa, where karmamudrā appeared alongside dream yoga, illusory body, and inner fire (tummo). Tsongkhapa gave karmamudrā its most systematic treatment in his Great Exposition of Secret Mantra, insisting it could only be undertaken by practitioners firmly grounded in bodhicitta, emptiness, and subtle-body mastery. Nyingma treasure texts and the songs of Yeshe Tsogyal revealed another dimension: sometimes symbolic, sometimes literal, always enfolded in devotion.Thus karmamudrā was never seen as stand-alone. It was always one branch on a vast tree rooted in vows, meditation, and the union of bliss and emptiness.The Subtle Body: Tsa, Lung, and TigleAt the center of tantric practice lies the subtle body: channels (tsa), winds (lung), and drops (tigle). These are not anatomical structures but experiential pathways of consciousness. The central channel runs like a luminous axis; winds are vital currents that carry awareness; drops are essences sustaining life and clarity.Karmamudrā works through this system. In ordinary sex, energy flows outward and is lost. In tantric union, the flow is reversed: winds are drawn into the central channel, drops melt and rise, and bliss unites with emptiness. The result is not mere pleasure but a shift in consciousness - the unveiling of the subtle, luminous mind of clear light.For this reason, karmamudrā cannot be separated from discipline. Without vows, compassion, and mastery of inner fire, it collapses into indulgence. With them, it becomes a crown jewel of tantric training.Why It Matters NowOur age is marked by a sexual crisis. Intimacy has been commodified. Pornography has replaced relationship for many. Loneliness is epidemic, trauma widespread. Even within spiritual communities, eros has too often been misused, leading to scandals and broken trust.
God's View of Marriage
The book is an apologetic on marriage, divorce and remarriage. It argues in defence of God's governance of marriage. As such, it establishes that marriage is a committed relationship between a man and a woman and cannot be broken until death for either party occurs.The book presents a clear challenge to those who consider marriage to be a fluid relationship. In this regard, the Protestant Church, in particular, is placed under the microscope due to its laxity when its leadership face decisions to remarry parties who are divorced.

Hungry for Hope
What are young adults' deepest concerns and hopes for the Christian church? In this remarkable volume, young adults voice their concerns and laments about the church's past and present, as well as their hopes and dreams for the church's future. Unlike many current books on youth ministry, this is not a book about how to attract young adults back to church. Instead, it is an invitation to listen to young adults as they offer important insights regarding the capacity of the church--and the world--to flourish going forward. The authors begin by invoking courageous curiosity, proposing this posture as a necessary mindset for the church as it approaches present-day challenges. They also point out that the young adult experience is too often shaped by tokenization, and offer an alternative approach rooted in relationships where young adults are valued co-creators in our shared future. Turning their attention to the world we live in, the authors name the hard realities that shape our human experience, while also offering guidance for finding our way in the ruins. They identify climate catastrophe, grief and lament, and mental health as crucial issues that define our times. They also examine how churches have caused harm and how young adults have been grieving the church's failures; among the themes they explore are abuse of power; marginalization, inclusion, and liberation; and sex, shame, and intimacy. Seeking constructive ways forward, the authors illuminate the importance of community and consider how the church might become more fully centered around Jesus. They call on churches to go beyond the walls--that is, to care for their neighbors and neighborhoods--in order to become trustworthy partners in God's work in the world. Finally, the authors consider themes of scarcity and abundance. They encourage the church to adopt a more faithful narrative rooted in God's abundance, so that the church will be better equipped to participate in the vital work of restoring people's relationships with God, with each other, and with the earth. The young adult contributors to this volume are driven by a deep hunger for hope. Their poignant, powerful insights are essential reading for ministry leaders, congregations, youth groups, and anyone who cares about young adults' engagement with Christianity.

Christian Music in Jerusalem
This book brings together several decades of research on the topic, including the last two decades of the author's own research. Each specific point of view was either formed beforehand or emerged in the process of ethnography and its analysis. The book explores various aspects of autochthonous Christian music in Jerusalem and other localities in Israel. It covers aspects such as the music of iconic Christian places in Jerusalem; fieldwork, documentation, and research of the local Christian tradition and its music; and longitudinal perspectives and cross-cultural environment. Other topics include historical connections (albeit hypothetical and not based on direct evidence of any kind or source) between Christian music heard and performed in the churches of Jerusalem and its predecessors in Second Temple practices, the earliest Christian music in the area, and other sources with varying historical depth. The book presents a wide range of topics related to the history and modernity of Christian music through the eyes of a scholar from Jerusalem, a city that encompasses the musical traditions of 10 officially represented churches, not to mention their subdivisions, as well as several other, officially unrepresented denominations.
