Christianity Today, 2016, Volume 60, Numbers 1–10
Overview
Since 1956, Christianity Today has challenged the church with real-world content that is timely, compelling, insightful, balanced, and biblical. Christianity Today is a magazine that seeks to present Christ preeminent in all things, with a clear ministry emphasis via trustworthy, Bible based content. Written with journalistic excellence and professional integrity, the authors and editors of this work seek to avoid the status-quo and push themselves and the modern church to live in obedience in light of God’s revelation. Since its founding by Billy Graham, Carl Henry, and others, this publication has commented on culture and shaped debate for over fifty years. Christianity Today has worked to change those who change the world: all who are serious about wanting their lives to be used by God as a counterculture for the common good.
Top Highlights
“This highlights the theme of ‘messianic secrecy’ that is so prevalent in Mark’s gospel. Jesus silences demons and humans, even the disciples, when they speak publicly about his identity. In some cases, Jesus does this so that he can define himself on his own terms, as the terms other people use are often inadequate. Sometimes Jesus doesn’t want recognition from a demon!” (Volume 60, Number 3, Page 63)
“What I’m more excited about is the promise that Jesus will return to earth and raise the dead. The story of Jairus’s daughter points to something that we who have faith will someday experience.” (Volume 60, Number 3, Page 63)
“His healing power not only negates, but also overcomes, both ritual impurity and the very causes of impurity. Not even death can stop him.” (Volume 60, Number 3, Page 62)
“But when Jesus was confronted with a physical need, he stopped to heal.” (Volume 60, Number 3, Page 62)
“Michelle Alexander’s The New Jim Crow, Ta-Nehisi Coates’s Between the World and Me, and Joy DeGruy’s Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome.” (Volume 60, Number 1, Page 67)
