Story
Most people - even people of faith - do not understand how the Bible fits together. Too many Christians accept half an inheritance, content to embrace merely the New Testament, while Jewish people may often experience the same by embracing only the Old Testament. But God has an intricate plan and purpose for both the Old and the New. In Mysteries of the Messiah, Rabbi Jason Sobel reveals the many connections in Scripture hidden in plain sight. Known for his emphatic declaration “but there’s more!” he guides us in seeing the passion and purpose of the Messiah.

What makes a good life? The question is inherent to the human condition, asked by people across generations, professions, and social classes, and addressed by all schools of philosophy and religions. This search for meaning, as Yale faculty Miroslav Volf, Matthew Croasmun, and Ryan McAnnally-Linz argue, is at the crux of a crisis that is facing Western culture, a crisis that, they propose, can be ameliorated by searching, in one’s own life, for the underlying truth.

Critic reviews
“Roma Downey’s Be an Angel is beautiful and inspiring. She invites us to enact the love that lives within each of us by finding simple ways to show up for one another as everyday angels. This book is for those who want to affirm love as the most profound form of activism and remind us that love and kindness are what the world so sorely needs right now.” —Jewel, songwriter and New York Times bestselling author of Never Broken
“I love everything Roma Downey writes! Once again, she uplifts your soul in this new book. It’s a real page-turner. . . . A needed breath of fresh air!” —Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life and co-founder of Saddleback Church
“Roma and I have forgotten how long it’s been since we became friends. But throughout our friendship she has lived out the embodiment of the loving, committed follower of Jesus. Although she’s not an angel—she acts like one every day. And she smells like one, too! She’s the sweet fragrance of her Savior. I love her!” —Kathie Lee Gifford, Emmy Award–winning television personality and New York Times bestselling author
