"When I first opened De Incarnatione, I soon discovered... that I was reading a masterpiece." —C.S. Lewis The world scoffs at the idea of Jesus' incarnation. Yet, the Christian faith hinges on this very notion—God, unwilling to be a bystander, fully entering into the human experience to provide the ultimate victory over sin and death. Athanasuis' On The Incarnation brings simple clarity to the difficult topic of Jesus' incarnation, affirming its timeless validity and relevance, and proving the character of an eternally loving God. Athanasius of Alexandria (296-373), Egyptian bishop, church father, and Christian theologian, broached the topic of the incarnation of Jesus during the 4th century, a time when the idea of a holy deity becoming human was absolutely preposterous. Out of the chaos of his time, with only Scripture and the Spirit of God as his guide, Athanasus wrote this passionate treatise on a subject that had never been explored before. Athanasius’ words have stood the test of time and continue to provide a trustworthy guide for us today. Through On the Incarnation, the reader will discover: A joyous and logical explanation of the incarnation A perspective grounded in Scripture and the first teachings of the Early Church A stunning description of Jesus’ victory over death An invitation to encounter this living, incarnate God Nearly two thousand years later, Athanasuis’ provocative thoughts are a breath of fresh air in a similar time of turbulence, reminding believers of the power, importance, and finality of Jesus’ incarnation.

"The great lack of our religion is, we do not know God." There is only one way to know God, and that is to spend time with God. In this age of instant gratification, quick access to information, and high speed everything, connecting with God is difficult because the act of waiting has become obsolete. If the answer is knowing God, if He is indeed “the one great remedy”, then learning to wait is vital. Andrew Murray's Waiting on God contains 31 daily meditations that will guide readers into the heart and the act of waiting on the Lord, shifting the focus from one’s personal needs and petitions to resting in the loving, living presence of God. South African writer, teacher and pastor, Andrew Murray (1828-1917), devoted his life to providing practical instruction to Christians everywhere, to guiding Christ-followers into deeper intimacy with the Lord. He believed—deeply and profoundly—that there was more of God to know, always more to understand, and that this pursuit would unlock belief and expectation for every believer. In this compelling devotional, Murray explains the mystery of waiting on God with relevant scripture, fascinating insights, and individual and communal challenges to: Wait on the presence of God Surrender to Him Connect with Him intimately Acknowledge His blessings Trust Him to provide Spending time with God leads to knowing Him. Knowing him leads to comprehending all that He can do. Murray’s Waiting on God is an invitation to engage in a true encounter with God, to make more space for “Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us...” (Ephesians 3:20, NIV).

A Timeless Guide to the Art of Abiding Many a faithful Christian has pondered over Jesus' command in John 15: "abide in me." Compelled by the invitation but baffled by how to practically achieve it, they fail to grasp the power and promise within the Savior’s most important command. South African pastor, teacher, and writer, Andrew Murray, (1828-1917) believed that abiding was the highest call for every Christian; the key to pressing beyond the mere threshold of salvation into the fullness of all that Jesus’s death & resurrection secured. Arguably the finest of Murray’s extensive works, Abide in Christ is a 31-day devotional suffused with glory; a direct invitation to learn and walk in the power of abiding. In this powerful book, readers are given the opportunity to... Unlock the simple secret to practical holiness Surrender their gifts and talents for renewal by the Master Live a lifestyle marked by overflowing joy Access the power of the Holy Spirit Grow in true wisdom and spiritual understanding Offer up their love to be refined and transformed by the infinite love of God Written to be read and re-read, this short book is a timeless guide to the fullness of Jesus’ words in John 15, how to appropriate their power, and how to live the life of abiding every day. “Therefore, my brother, who would learn to abide in Jesus, take time each day, ere you read, and while you read, and after you read, to put yourself into living contact with the living Jesus, to yield yourself distinctly and consciously to His blessed influence; so will you give Him the opportunity of taking hold of you, of drawing you up and keeping you safe in His almighty life.”

A Winsome Defence of the Christian Faith Our modern world — wide awake to its own progress and virtues — disdains the antiquated notions of Christianity. Wouldn't humankind be much improved by the extinction of this unsightly ideology? This book is a winsome response that is delightfully sharp-witted and disarmingly sincere. In Orthodoxy, masterful thinker, literary critic, and lay theologian, G. K. Chesterton (1874-1935), pairs whimsey and wisdom to offer a robust defense of the Christian faith. Addressing the noisy contentions of secular humanism, Chesterton lays forth a defense of the Biblical worldview, asserting not only its truth, but also its necessity for a healthy society. Originally published in 1908, this unique work feels remarkably current. Orthodoxy offers a sound apologetic without being pompous or abstract. In it, readers will discover... True orthodoxy as a kind of "romance" through which the believer is wooed into authentic, spiritual connection with God An exploration of why the Biblical teachings of the Fall and Original Sin are, in fact, hopeful The vital truth hidden within the Christian doctrine of Hell How a thriving relationship with a personal God produces individuals who are truly alive Why the virtues of Christianity cannot be divorced from the fullness of the Christian faith Chesterton’s engaging defense of Orthodoxy finds its ultimate delight in the person of Jesus Himself, concluding with an invitation into His deep and mysterious joy! “If we wish to pull down the prosperous oppressor we cannot do it with the new doctrine of human perfectibility; we can do it with the old doctrine of Original Sin. If we want to uproot inherent cruelties or lift up lost populations we cannot do it with the scientific theory that matter precedes mind; we can do it with the supernatural theory that mind precedes matter. ... And if we wish to exalt the outcast and the crucified, we shall rather wish to think that a veritable God was crucified, rather than a mere sage or hero.”

A Quickening Flame for a Lukewarm Heart If they are honest, many believers today would describe their Christian experience as "shallow," “hollow,” or as religious actions that feel like “nervous activity.” Meanwhile, their heart yearns for something more — an authentic connection with a living, passionate God. In The Pursuit of God, A. W. Tozer calls the reader out of the spiritual apathy or religious intellectualism hindering them, and leads them out into a wild adventure with the God who calls Himself a consuming fire. A. W. Tozer (1897-1963) was an American pastor, author, and spiritual mentor. His writing is at once profound and accessible, both thrilling and pastoral. His own passion flashes like a flame from the pages of this book, kindling a blaze in the heart of all who read it. In this classic work, readers will find... Their hearts quickened with a renewed desire for God Himself Courage to forsake anything that hinders their whole-hearted pursuit of God A deeper affection for Him as the Object of their pursuit A keener awareness of His voice, as He speaks through their journey A captivating invitation into a lifestyle of unceasing worship All those whose hearts cry out, “My soul thirsts for God, for the living God” (Psalm 42:2) will find in this classic work a clear path to the real, intimate relationship with the Father that their soul is craving. “To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul's paradox of love, scorned indeed by the too-easily-satisfied religionist, but justified in happy experience by the children of the burning heart.”

Even the briefest of philosophical musing arrives at the conclusion that life is a passing vapor. When "all is vanity," where can true meaning and enduring significance be found? This timeless book cries out to a modern culture obsessed with knowledge yet mired in futility; it makes the case that truth can only be discovered in the footprints of Jesus. An unassuming monk from the 15th century, Thomas à Kempis devoted his life to reading and teaching Scripture. He wrote The Imitation of Christ in the midst of his daily service as an instructor and copyist. Though his life was unremarkable, the persistence of this work through the centuries proves it's very point: there is nothing more powerful or enduring than a humble life, dedicated to the simple pursuit of Jesus. No other historical work imparts the art of Christian discipleship so well as The Imitation of Christ. In the pages that follow, readers will discover... Gentle instruction toward authentic humility Practical prayers for everyday discipleship Seasoned guidance into deeper intimacy with Jesus Himself This unassuming work has beckoned millions of readers across the centuries into a lifestyle of surrendered devotion, and thus into a legacy of true significance. “... all is vanity, save to love God, and Him only to serve. That is the highest wisdom, to cast the world behind us, and to reach forward to the heavenly kingdom.”

"What a man is must be shown to be more important than what he does." In the Church today, there is a great emphasis on results, influence, impact, words, and actions. However, these outward manifestations of righteousness are meant to be the product of a heart deeply rooted in the love of Jesus Christ. In this prescient and wisdom-rich book, The Root of the Righteous, A.W. Tozer urges believers to fix their gaze—not on visible fruit—but on Jesus Himself, to focus their efforts on planting deep roots in Him. With a true devotion to knowing Christ Jesus, to following Him, to walking in His ways, the highly-valued fruit is simply and inevitably a product of communion with His all-powerful, ever-loving presence. A.W. Tozer (1897-1963) was an influential voice in evangelical American Christianity. As a pastor and an author, he challenged the hearts and minds of believers with his fierce intellect and heartfelt invitations, always with one goal in mind: that people would come to know God deeply, intimately, and truly. In The Root of the Righteous, Tozer's ferocity and passion shine through, as he calls readers into deeper union with Jesus and ultimately into the true life of the Church. In this compilation of short meditations, Tozer reveals that in order to plant immovable roots in Jesus, the Christian must: Listen to God Receive His counsel Enjoy His presence Know Scripture Be inspired by the Spirit Commit whole-heartedly Refuse complacency Tozer says, “The message 'Christ in you, the hope of glory’ (Colossians 1:27) needs to be restored to the Church.” This is the central decree of The Root of the Righteous: that the abiding presence of Jesus, through the gift of the Holy Spirit, in the hearts of believers is indeed the hope of the world. Through true intimacy with Christ, real, lasting fruit flourishes—righteousness flourishes—the very fruit that the world longs for.

"What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us." Our understanding of God impacts not merely our theology, but also the way in which we practice ethics and morality — our entire lives are based on the way we answer the core question: “Who is God?” Thus, it is paramount that we have a true and accurate understanding of God. American pastor, author, and spiritual mentor, A. W. Tozer (1897-1963) believed that the vast majority of modern Christians have unwittingly adopted a “low” view of God, simultaneously gutting the Gospel of its true power, disfiguring our worship, and barring access to true spiritual power. The solution? Recapturing a true understanding of the magnitude of God's glory. In Knowledge of the Holy, Tozer offers real hope for Christians whose worship has become uninspired and lifeless, whose prayers feel like a monologue, and who feel devoid of spiritual power. Written in the accessible “language of worship,” this timeless classic will open readers’ eyes to God’s... Relentless faithfulness Vast goodness Fierce justice Transformative mercy Measureless love Triumphant holiness and more At its very core, the sin of idolatry is a wrong belief about who God is and what He is like. This essential work is a clarion call out of idolatry and all its lies into the wild grandeur of God’s majestic glory. “The heaviest obligation lying upon the Christian Church today is to purify and elevate her concept of God until it is once more worthy of Him - and of her.”

A Primer on Biblical Healing The transformational healing ministry of Jesus stands in stark contrast to what many Christians have come to believe today: that God doesn't always heal sickness, that healing is primarily attained through modern medicine, that God cares about spiritual health more than physical health. In Divine Healing, Andrew Murray examines some of the mysteries of divine healing: God’s desire to redeem His people in body and soul, His absolute victory over sin and death and the necessity of the believer’s faith-filled participation in healing. Andrew Murray (1828-1917), preacher, pastor, and brilliant theologian, believed that God was deeply committed to healing in both body and soul. When Murray grew ill and lost his voice for more than two years, he engaged in an intense study of healing in Scripture, seeking an answer to the question that many have asked: Should I pursue medical treatment, or exclusively seek healing from the Lord? The Lord healed Murray’s voice and, from that point on, healing the sick became a central part of his preaching and ministry. In Divine Healing, Murray shares a series of meditations centered on "The Prayer of Faith" found in James 5:15, unraveling deep questions surrounding the difficult topic of divine healing, including: Is sickness a sign of God’s judgment? How does faith play a part in healing? Why are some people healed and others not? What does the Bible say about healing? Is sickness God’s will? Murray directs the reader back to Scripture and the many examples of Jesus healing the sick. More than anything, he draws the reader into a greater understanding of the Lord’s commitment to the growth, health and wholeness of His people.

"Are you willing to surrender yourselves absolutely into His hands?" Absolute surrender is the goal of the faithful Christ follower—to live a life grafted into the very heart of God—but this pursuit is entirely counterintuitive to human nature and the innate longing for absolute control. Therefore, the journey towards surrender is often marked by struggle, shortcomings, and failure. What is the secret, then, to true surrender? In Absolute Surrender, Andrew Murray provides a practical path towards complete surrender to the way and the will of Jesus. This path leads to a life of self-sacrifice and humility—yes—but even more so, to a life of freedom and abundance, marked by the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit, and therefore to a life of goodness, kindness, patience, peace, joy, and love. Much of Andrew Murray's (1828-1917) published writing was an extension of his work as a pastor in South Africa, and his dozens of books and pamphlets reflect his unshakable desire to draw people into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. In these pages, Murray speaks from experience, as a man who wrestled with how to abandon himself to God’s will, who repeatedly gave his life for the sake of the Church, and who came face-to-face with God’s wondrous and boundless love through this very pursuit of absolute surrender. In this this collection of short addresses, Andrew Murray reminds the believer that the humble and powerful act of surrendering one’s life wholly to God releases: Power Provision Protection Transformation Miracles Intimacy with God Freedom Abundant life Absolute surrender is not impossible. In fact, it is the very aspiration that carries the power to fulfill the freedom, abundance, and intimacy that God promises to those who follow Him. Absolute Surrender will light the way. The question is not, “Is it possible?” The question is, “Are you willing?”
