De outra feita, estava Jesus expelindo um demônio que era mudo. E aconteceu que, ao sair o demônio, o mudo passou a falar; e as multidões se admiravam. Mas alguns dentre eles diziam: Ora, ele expele os demônios pelo poder de Belzebu, o maioral dos demônios. E outros, tentando-o, pediam dele um sinal do céu. E, sabendo ele o que se lhes passava pelo espírito, disse-lhes: Todo reino dividido contra si mesmo ficará deserto, e casa sobre casa cairá. Se também Satanás estiver dividido contra si mesmo, como subsistirá o seu reino?

Depois disto, o homem me fez voltar à entrada do templo, e eis que saíam águas de debaixo do limiar do templo, para o oriente; porque a face da casa dava para o oriente, e as águas vinham de baixo, do lado direito da casa, do lado sul do altar. Ele me levou pela porta do norte e me fez dar uma volta por fora, até à porta exterior, que olha para o oriente; e eis que corriam as águas ao lado direito. Então, me disse: Estas águas saem para a região oriental, e descem à campina, e entram no mar Morto, cujas águas ficarão saudáveis. (Ezequiel 47:1,2,8)

Eu, João, sou quem ouviu e viu estas coisas. E, quando as ouvi e vi, prostrei-me ante bos pés do anjo que me mostrou essas coisas, para adorá-lo. Então, ele me disse: Vê, não faças isso; eu sou conservo teu, dos teus irmãos, os profetas, e dos que guardam as palavras deste livro. Adora a Deus. (Apocalipse 22:8-9)

Lamar Hardwick was thirty-six years old when he found out he was on the autism spectrum. While this revelation helped him understand and process his own experience, it also prompted a difficult re-evaluation of who he was as a person. And as a pastor, it started him on a new path of considering the way disabled people are treated in the church. Disability and the Church is a practical and theological reconsideration of the church's responsibilities to the disabled community.

For five hundred years, Latina/o culture and identity have been shaped by their challenges to the religious, socio-economic, and political status quo, whether in opposition to Spanish colonialism, Latin American dictatorships, US imperialism in Central America, the oppression of farmworkers, or the current exploitation of undocumented immigrants. Christianity has played a significant role in that movement at every stage. Robert Chao Romero, the son of a Mexican father and a Chinese immigrant mother, explores the history and theology of what he terms the "Brown Church."

After twelve years of ministering to students on public campuses, Brian Barcelona's world turned upside down when public schools shut down in March 2020.

Fervent passion for Jesus is often one of the first things to fade as we struggle through the daily grind of life, especially after grappling with disappointments and pain. Yet inherent in Jesus's call to return to our first love is his promise to help us never to lose it—to have a heart sustained in joy, delight, and passion for him all of our days. Dana Candler shares her own wrestle with weariness and unbelief, and reveals that a heart fully alive in Jesus is not only possible but is the promise and invitation of God's infinite grace.

Much of the church has forgotten that we worship a disabled God whose wounds survived resurrection, says Amy Kenny. It is time for the church to start treating disabled people as full members of the body of Christ who have much more to offer than a miraculous cure narrative and to learn from their embodied experiences. Written by a disabled Christian, this book shows that the church is missing out on the prophetic witness and blessing of disability.

In 2020, many Christians claiming to be prophets said God told them that Donald Trump would be re-elected as president. Over thirty years before that, one the famous Kansas City Prophets, Paul Cain, prophesied that there would be a revival in London in 1990, which never came to pass. These examples make us wonder:
