Scot McKnight calls this double commandment to love “The Jesus Creed.” We can’t wait until we’re adults to begin loving God and loving others. ..."

The NIV Application Commentary Galatians. Plus a Free Book. by ScottMcknight Hardcover, Published 1995 by Hodder & Stoughton Religious ISBN-13: 978-0-340-65198-8, ISBN: 0-340-65198-9
"This commentary, focusing on "Galations", is part of a series which seeks to discuss the meaning of the text in its biblical context, and to apply this meaning to contemporary situations."
"Most Bible commentaries take us on a one-way trip from the twentieth century to the first century. But they leave us there, assuming that we can somehow make the return journey on our own. In other words, they focus on the original meaning of the passage but don't discuss its contemporary application. The information they offer is valuable but the job is only half done! The NIV Application Commentary Series helps us with both halves ..."

"Christians want to make a difference, but sometimes the ministry bar is raised so high that only those who are "go-getters" can do it. Mission work can look like a drastic life change, unattainable to those who aren't in full-time ministry. So the average church member is left without a mission.Pastor and author M. Scott Boren shows how ordinary Christians can make a huge impact through their everyday lives. Boren teaches church members ..."
