Jesus said, My kingdom is not of this world. (John 18:36)From the publisher: God calls believers to live faithfully in a way that flips the wisdom of our worldly kingdoms on its head. The goal of this Bible is to reflect the counter-cultural, or upside-down nature, of Gods Kingdom as opposed to earthly values. We developed this Bible to answer the questions we hear from Bible readers-especially younger readers in the Millennial and Gen Z generations-asking how to think biblically about the slew of issues they confront in their daily world. What does the Bible say about sanctity of life, reproduction and abortion? How does the Bible help me think about Gods creation, and my role in caring for the world he created? What am I supposed to think about the refugee in my land? I hear political jargon about immigration, but is that the same as loving my neighbor, wherever they come from? These questions and so many more are what led us to publish this topically-focused specialty Bible. With contributions from 44 scholars and teachers who are respected as experts in their area of contribution, this unique Bible provides commentary throughout Scripture to address the subject matter prevalent in culture today, but using the Bible as the foundation for providing the framework and foundation for how to live out Gods Word.In a culture that has become exponentially polarized, it can be difficult to think biblically while loving well.
