Strengthened by the Gospel: A Theology of Romans

"An Introduction to the Theology and Themes of Romans The book of Romans, often regarded as one of the greatest letters ever written, provides a thorough explanation of Christian doctrine. Yet, in explaining Paul’s gospel, Romans is not just for preachers and people who have not yet come to faith. Paul’s purpose in Romans is to strengthen believers with the gospel of God thereby equipping them for every good work, to live holy lives, be protected from evil, and to live as those who belong to the day of Christ’s glorious return.   In this volume of the New Testament Theology series, Brian S. Rosner explores the key theology and themes of Romans, including sin, righteousness, justification, judgment, union with Christ, Christian conduct, hope, and more. By examining the letter’s Old Testament connections and the full scope of Paul’s gospel, this volume seeks to strengthen and encourage today’s disciples of Jesus. - Part of the New Testament Theology Series: Other volumes include Living Faith; The Appearing of God Our Savior; and To Walk and to Please God - Ideal for Anyone Wanting to Study the Bible More Deeply: Perfect for pastors, seminarians, college students, and laypeople - Covers Important Theological Themes: Sin, righteousness, justification, judgment, union with Christ, Christian conduct, hope, and more"

Known by God Audio Lectures: A Biblical Theology of Personal Identity

"Who are you? What makes you, you? In the past, your personal identity would have been settled before you were born. Today, identity is a do-it-yourself project: ours is a day of identity angst. Known by God Audio Lectures surveys the neglected biblical theme of being known by God as his children, a truth that meets our deepest and lifelong need for recognition-the key to a secure personal identity. Brian Rosner shows that embracing this identity gives our fleeting lives significance, provokes humility, supplies cheering comfort, and offers moral direction for living. The Biblical Theology for Life series brings groundbreaking academic study of the Bible alongside contemporary contextualization and proclamation. Each title, taught by a leading biblical scholar, traces the development of a theological theme in Scripture and addresses the relevance of the Bible's teaching to pastors, church leaders, students, and lay readers.

How to Find Yourself: Why Looking Inward Is Not the Answer

"In the 21st-century West, identity is everything. Never has it been more important, culturally speaking, to know who you are and remain true to yourself. Expressive individualism—the belief that looking inward is the way to find yourself—has become the primary approach to identity formation, and questioning anyone's 'self-made self' is often considered a threat or attack. Prompted by his own past crisis of identity, Brian Rosner challenges the status quo by arguing that, while knowing yourself is of some value, it cannot be the sole basis for one's identity. He provides an approach to identity formation that leads to a more stable and satisfying sense of self. This approach looks outward to others—acknowledging that we are social beings—and looks upward to God to find a self who is intimately known and loved by him. How to Find Yourself equips readers from a variety of backgrounds to engage sympathetically with some of the most pressing questions of our day."
