This study of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy covers Israel's emergence from slavery in Egypt, receiving God's law at Mount Sinai, and wandering in the wilderness on their way to the Promised Land. We see Jesus pictured in the unblemished lambs who died that first Passover night, in the pillar of fire that guided God's people, the manna that fed them, and the rock that gushed with water for them to drink. In the law of God given to Moses, we discover a picture of the only person who has ever obeyed God perfectly. In every aspect of the tabernacle, the priesthood, the laws for clean and unclean we see the way Jesus saves us and cleanses us and loves us.

In this paradigm-shifting book, Nancy Guthrie gently invites readers to lean in along with her to hear Jesus speak understanding and insight into the lingering questions we all have about the hurts of life—what was God's involvement in this, and why did he let it happen? Why hasn't God answered my prayers for a miracle? Can I expect God to protect me? Does God even care?

All families eventually face the loss of a loved one. When it happens, it can place great strain on a marriage, as well as on other relationships. That's partly because we don't know what to do with our feelings and partly because every family member grieves in his or her own way. In this book, Nancy and David Guthrie explore the family dynamics involved when a loved one dies--and debunk some myths about family grief. Through their own experiences of losing two young children and interviews with those who've faced losing spouses and parents, they show how grief can actually pull a family closer together rather than tearing it apart.

We tend to look to the New Testament to tell us about Jesus, yet it was the Old Testament about which Jesus said, “the Scriptures point to me!” In Discovering Jesus in the Old Testament, Nancy Guthrie takes readers from Genesis through Malachi shining the light of Christ on the promise of a descendent who will put an end to the curse of sin, the story of a father who offers up his son as a sacrifice, the symbol of a temple where people can meet with God, the prophecy of a servant who will suffer, the person of a king who will rule with righteousness— and so much more.

Who wants to merely go through the motions of religion? We long for something authentic--something worth opening our hearts to, filling our minds with, and giving our lives for. We hope for something better than the "churchianity" of our parents and the vague spirituality of our neighbors, something better than guilt-induced, holier-than-thou morality, better than here-and-now, health-and-wealth promises. In her thought-provoking and authentic style, Nancy Guthrie shows that Jesus himself offers the something better we've been looking for, applying the truths of Hebrews to real-life issues such as guilt, shame, disappointment, hardship, unhealthy obsessions, personal ambition, and fear of death.

The busyness of December can easily crowd out contemplation of the amazing reality of God's coming to live among us as one of us. I hope your family will not succumb to our culture's empty busyness of this season, but that in your home, every heart will prepare room for Jesus.
