Who do you say that I am? Whether or not you know it, this question, posed by Jesus, is the most important question you'll ever answer. But it's not only a question for those who haven't trusted Jesus for salvation; it's also one for those who call themselves followers of Christ. Many will claim to know the answer, but even Peter, who answered it correctly, didn't fully understand who Jesus was until later. And in a culture two millennia removed,...

Cuando nos remontamos a la era de Abraham, encontramos personas que inventaban supersticiones falsas para explicar lo inexplicable. Reyes poderosos que se creían dioses, edificicaban pirámides inmensas para tratar de alcanzar la inmortalidad. De toda esa masa de malentendidos salió un hombre. A ese hombre lo conocemos hoy en día como Abraham; quien no sólo afirmó que existía un Creador verdadero, sino que también se jugó la vida por esa creencia....

Perhaps most of all, it is an account of a godly woman with the courage, wisdom, and strength to block an evil plot, overthrow an arrogant killer, and replace with joy in thousands of Jewish homes. Through Esther's...

David, unlike any Bible character before him, had the charisma to inspire a great nation. Yet in other ways he was a most ordinary man-often gripped by destructive passion, rocked by personal tragedy, and motivated by political gain. Yet, he is the one character the Bible describes as a "man after God's own heart." In this first volume of the "Great Lives" series Charles Swindoll shows how David proved his love for God many times over in an extraordinary...
