"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 of ..."

Writing from decades of counseling and personal ministry experience, Ajith Fernando points Christian leaders back to the most important aspect of their lives: their relationship with God. He then o ..."
Reclaiming Love(Reprint) Radical Relationships in a Complex World by DrAjithFernando, Ravi Zacharias Paperback, 192 Pages, Published 2016 by Zondervan ISBN-13: 978-0-310-52336-9, ISBN: 0-310-52336-2
"In 1 Corinthians 13, Paul places love at the very center of what it means to embrace life in Christ. All other spiritual gifts are worth nothing in comparison. But the love explained in those verses is nothing short of radical. Fernando’s pastoral work―in the midst of the cultural and ethnic tensions of Sri Lanka―often brought up a very real and honest question: “Can the biblical teaching about love actually be practiced?” The answer ..."
"Our culture has a lot to say about heaven. But too much of it is based more on imaginative speculation or -supernatural- experiences than on the Bible itself. In the latest addition to the Theology in Community series, Christopher Morgan and Robert Peterson have assembled an interdisciplinary team of evangelical scholars to explore the doctrine of heaven from a variety of angles. Among other contributors, Ray Ortlund examines the concep ..."

"La mayoría de los comentarios bíblicos nos llevan en un viaje de una sola vía de nuestro mundo al mundo bíblico. Pero nos dejan ahí, asumiendo que de alguna manera nosotros podremos hacer el viaje de regreso por nuestros propios medios. En otras palabras, se enfocan en el significado original del pasaje pero no discuten las aplicaciones contemporáneas. La información que ofrecen es valiosa, ¡pero el trabajo esta a medias!

Deuteronomy(1st Edition) Loving Obedience to a Loving God (Preaching the Word) by DrAjithFernando, R. Kent Hughes Hardcover, 768 Pages, Published 2012 by Crossway ISBN-13: 978-1-4335-3100-2, ISBN: 1-4335-3100-3
"The book of Deuteronomy is a call to obedience―the proper response to God’s faithfulness and love. Consisting primarily of speeches that Moses gave to the Israelites shortly before they entered the Promised Land, Moses’ words proclaimed God’s covenant faithfulness in hopes of motivating the Israelites to obey God despite the coming temptation to conform to the Canaanite culture. The challenges they faced then are remarkably parallel to ..."
