While the average person rarely sees it, the visual arts play a subtle yet profound role in the teaching and formation of faith, both for individuals and religious communities. The Substance of Things Seen explores the intersection of art and faith, offering thoughtful reflections on the way art functions in Christian life and practice. Highly readable and featuring instructive illustrations, this book is meant to engage church leaders as well as artists in constructive conversation about the critical role that art can play in the renewal of Christian education, worship, and study. It also challenges anyone who thinks the arts are only of marginal importance to the religious life. Robin Jensen considers here a broad range of topics relevant to Christian faith and culture, including the construction of sacred space, the use of art in worship and spiritual formation, the way that visual art interprets sacred texts, and the power and danger of art from a historical and contemporary perspective.Binding Type: Paperback

Correcting the Biblical Chronology
Format: Hardcover
When I first begin my study of the Bible, I had purchased another book on archaeology and the first thing I realized is that nothing fit. The time of Solomon was impoverishment in Israel. When you read the Bible Solomon was the richest king ever. David Rohl's book Pharaohs and Kings changed all that. He persuasively shows where the chronology is wrong and when corrected things fall into place. What is commonly called the old testament comes to life. It is the greatest book on Biblical Archaeology ever written. Thank you David !!!

Long expected and now explained mystery of Israels sojourne in Egypt
Format: Hardcover
Beautiful, detailed and well explained text book. Very hard for the history of the Bible to be accepted by so many scholars. However,
archeology and history just keeps proving it totally reliable over and over again. If you want to see the pieces of the puzzle of ancient mid-east and Bible history fall in place - get this incredible book. The highly credentialed and acclaimed archeologist, David Rohl has
really done an outstanding job in this presentation. Read and learn!

An addictive read
Format: Paperback
A friend loaned me his copy and I couldn't put it down. Very well written and extremely informative.
Why conventional Egyptology doesen't attempt to adhere to the obvious evidences I will never understand.
After returning my friends copy to him I not only bought one for myself but have purchased others for friends and family. This book is especially helpful for one who is interested in understanding which Old Testament persons are being referenced in various accounts.Moses did not deal with Raamses the Great
