The Bible's historical, geographical, and political narrative, and cosmological context, swirls through and around Israel. The Bible expects the reader to know Israel like the back of one's hand. Without understanding Israel, readers miss much of the Bible's depth, breadth, and profundity. Israel is at once the God wrestler Jacob, God's chosen nation, a foil for the soft heart and open mind God wishes of his people, and a prefiguring of the Church as the bride of Jesus Christ. Israel is also the setting for the earthly ministry of Christ. Know Israel, and you'll know the Bible. Let this book help you relive the Israel study trip you've taken with Pastor Marshall or another Israel tour guide. Or let this book spur you to sign up with Pastor Marshall for his next trip. Or from this book, just soak up a little more of the beautiful, dusty, rugged, rich, and spiritually formative land of Israel. Draw closer to Christ through the spiritual and biblical allure of Israel's unparalleled history and exquisite lands.

The scriptures invite us into a world of extraordinary adventure and eternal consequence. Rains flood the earth, and seas part. A wandering nation eats from heaven while drinking from a rock. Nations and kings rise and fall for good reason. A prophet opens the heavens for a glimpse of its legions and then disappears aloft. Dead children rise, dead men walk from the grave, and a donkey talks. And a perfect man walks on water, saying that this barely imaginable world is all around us. Living scripturally is to awake to profound possibility, to enter an always-new, ever-unfolding, utterly magnificent world. Living scripturally is life rich with the greatest possible meaning and purpose, with the assurance that heroic love will draw one onward and upward without end in an embrace of the greatest comfort, consolation, and security. May you live scripturally from now into eternity.

This book answers 100 questions that people who are not lawyers ask of lawyers in casual conversation. We all have an innate curiosity about the law because we sense how important law is. We prosper when following law but starve when not. Yet we often misunderstand law, as our curious questions about it reflect. We think that law is often nonsensical when to the contrary it is rarely so. Distrust lurks behind our odd questions about law, when law must instead be trustworthy or it fails to work effectively as law and becomes something less than law. Law must have our confidence. Let this book help make it so. Appreciate law, while you keep letting lawyers know your questions.
