Eclipsing Empire is another great resource from the folks at Living the Questions. Join preeminent New Testament scholars Marcus Borg and John Dominic Crossan on location in Turkey as they trace the Apostle Paul's footsteps throughout the Roman Empire. This 12-session DVD and web-based study explores fresh insights into Paul's message of the Kingdom of God, its challenge to Roman imperial theology, and the apostle's radical relevance for today. Filmed in High-Definition on location in Turkey, Greece, and Italy. This resource will be a hot item so you may want to get on the waiting list... it's already booked until January!

When the Game is Over, It All Goes Back In the Box with John Ortberg is a six-session study on what really counts in life. Using his humor and his genius for storytelling, Ortberg helps you focus on the real rules of the game and how to set your priorities. The DVD and participants guide help explain how, left to our own devices, we tend to seek out worldly things, mistakenly thinking they will bring us fulfillment. But everything on Earth belongs to God. Everything we own is just on loan. And what pleases God is often 180 degrees from what we may think is important.

Confronting Death by Walter Wangerin from Paraclete Press is a 5-part resource of unusal courage and honesty. .In 2006, the author was diagnosed with cancer and this video speaks directly to his own personal experience. "You and I sooner or later are going to experience what comes to all people: we are going to experience dying, But there is a difference between us and the world… the world looks away from that fact and tries to hide it as much as possible… but we as faithful people have the power and ability to look death straight in the eye and understand it."

Walter Wangerin Jr is an award-winning author of 35 books, and popular lecturer in many media.

The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism by Timothy Keller is a great new book responding to the many voices that would seek to popularize agnosticism. This book (our copy is an abridged audio-CD format) owes at least a small debt to the author's congregation. In New York City's Redeemer Presbyterian Church, Timothy Keller ministers to a flock of 15,000. Over the years, Rev. Keller has compiled a list of doubts by parishioners and visitors. In The Reason for God, he responds to seven common objections to religion in general and/or Christianity in particular. For believers or would-be believers, this book provides a reassuring response to books such as God Is Not Great, Letter to a Christian Nation, and The God Delusion.

Don't forget to take a look at Rob Bell's newest DVD's The Gods Aren't Angry and Nooma #19 (Shells), now at the Interfaith Resource Center.
