God on the Brain

Author(s): Brad Sickler
Publisher: Crossway
Price: $4.99 (Ends Nov 3)

The human brain is incredibly complex. Both Christian and secular scholars alike affirm this fact, yet the traditional view of humanity as spiritual beings made in the image of God has come under increased pressure from humanistic and materialistic thinkers who deny that humans are anything more than their physical bodies. Christians have long affirmed that humans are spiritual beings made by God to know and fellowship with him, while the humanist position views humans as merely evolved animals.

Bradley Sickler provides a timely theological, scientific, and philosophical assessment of the human brain, highlighting the many ways in which the gospel informs the Christian understanding of cognitive science. Here is a book that provides a much-needed summary of the Bible’s teaching as it sheds light on the brain, with careful interaction with the claims of modern science, arguing that the Christian worldview offers the most compelling vision of the true nature of humanity.

Ancient Near Eastern Themes in Biblical Theology

This e-book was chosen by our readers to be placed on sale.

Author(s): Jeffrey Niehaus
Publisher: Kregel Academic
Price: $2.99 (Oct 28-29)

Traces the many parallels between the Old Testament (and Bible as a whole) and the ancient Near East, including creation and flood narratives, common literary and legal forms, supposed acts of deities and the God of the Bible, and more. Instead of merely studying a random selection of parallels, however, Jeffrey Niehaus proposes that they represent “a shared theological structure of ideas in the ancient Near East, a structure that finds its most complete and true form in the Old and New Testaments.” This comprehensive and enlightening resource promises to help students and discerning Bible readers to intellectually grasp and appreciate the overarching story of the Bible within its cultural development.

Psalms: Hymns for God’s People

Author(s): John MacArthur
Publisher: Harper Christian
Price: $1.99 (Oct 28 Only)

Throughout the ages, Psalms has retained its original and primary purpose: to engender the fitting praise and worship of God. The essential idea of Psalms is living real life in the real world. Without denying the pain of life, the people of God are to live joyfully and dependently on the person and promises of God.

In the twelve studies within, join John MacArthur to see the Psalms as a broad array of theology, practically couched in day-to-day reality. The sinfulness of man is documented concretely but also the sovereignty of God is everywhere recognizable. By working through this study, you, like the people of Israel, will learn that though life often seems to be out of control, all events and situations are to be understood in the light of divine providence as being right on course according to God’s timetable.
