"Wenn wir über die Geburt Christi nachdenken, richten wir unsere Aufmerksamkeit oft auf den detaillierten Bericht des Lukas-Evangeliums. Aber um den Hauptpunkt der Geschichte zu verstehen – nämlich, dass der ewige Sohn Gottes unsere menschliche Natur aus Fleisch und Blut angenommen hat –, müssen wir aus der gesamten Bibel lernen, warum Christus wirklich auf die Erde kam.
Warum ist Christus gekommen? Diese 31 Antworten ermutigen Dich, die Geburt Christi tiefgründiger zu verstehen und klarer zu sehen, wie sie mit Seinem gesamten Wirken verbunden ist, und Du kannst ihre Bedeutung für Dein Leben begreifen.
»Warum Christus kam« eignet sich gut für Familienandachten oder für die persönliche Stille Zeit – nicht nur in der Adventszeit. Mit einem Einband aus Kunstleder und mit Goldprägung und einem wunderschönen Design ist dies ein perfektes Geschenk für geliebte Menschen."
"For centuries, the Westminster Shorter Catechism has helped Christians young and old to know their "chief end." Now, authors William Boekestein, Jonathan Landry Cruse, and Andrew J. Miller value this venerable catechism and winsomely introduce a new generation to its powerful message. Dividing the catechism into 52 brief devotions, they explain and apply each question and answer in a year's worth of Lord's Days. This valuable new resource is great for individual and family use for all who desire to "glorify and enjoy God forever.""

"By the end of his brief life Ulrich Zwingli would change the religious landscape of his home and the world. It wasn't until the last few years of his life that he became a reformer. He fought for truth and righteousness with his mind and pen, he fought for lost souls to hear the good news of Jesus Christ, and at the age of forty-seven, as an army chaplain, he was killed on the battle-field. The Shepherd Warrior, Ulrich Zwingli, fought the good fight.With his last strength he voiced his victory: 'They can kill the body but not the soul!'"
