Competing Spectacles: Treasuring Christ in the Media Age

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

Author(s): Tony Reinke
Publisher: Crossway
Price: $2.99 (Nov 12-13)

“Thirty years after Neil Postman’s Amusing Ourselves to Death, this book takes the impact-analysis of modern media to a new level.”

—John Piper, Founder and Teacher, desiringGod.org

What images should I feed my eyes?

We often leave this question unanswered— because we don’t ask it. Maybe we don’t want to ask it. But viral videos, digital images, and other spectacles surround us in every direction—competing for our time, our attention, our lust, and our money. So we let our lazy eyes feed on whatever comes our way. As a result, we never stop to consider the consequences of our visual diet on our habits, desires, and longings.

Journalist Tony Reinke asked these hard questions himself—critiquing his own habits—and now invites us along to see what he discovered as he investigated the possibilities and the pitfalls of our image-centered world. In the end, he shares the beauty of a Greater Spectacle—capable of centering our souls, filling our hearts, and stabilizing our gaze in this age of the digital spectacle.

Interpreting Eden: A Guide to Faithfully Reading and Understanding Genesis 1-3

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

Author(s): Vern S. Poythress
Publisher: Crossway
Price: $2.99 (Nov 10-11)

“No interpreter of the creation narratives can avoid interacting with this book.” —Derek W. H. Thomas

Christians have long discussed and debated the first three chapters of the Bible. How we interpret this crucial section of Scripture has massive implications for how we understand the rest of God’s Word and even history itself. In this important volume, biblical scholar Vern Poythress combines careful exegesis with theological acumen to illuminate the significance of Genesis 1–3. In doing so, he demonstrates the sound interpretive principles that lead to true understanding of the biblical text, while also exploring complex topics such as the nature of time, the proper role of science, interpretive literalism, and more.

Reading the Bible Supernaturally: Seeing and Savoring the Glory of God in Scripture

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

Author(s): John Piper
Publisher: Crossway
Price: $2.99 (Nov 6-7)

Does it take a miracle to read the Bible?

God wrote a book, and its pages are full of his glory. But we cannot see his beauty on our own, with mere human eyes.

In Reading the Bible Supernaturally, John Piper aims to show us how God works through his written Word when we pursue the natural act of reading the Bible, so that we experience his sight giving power—a power that extends beyond the words on the page.

Ultimately, Piper shows us that in the seemingly ordinary act of reading the Bible, something miraculous happens: we are given eyes to behold the glory of the living God.
