Are you interested in going even deeper? Proverbs 24:5b tells us, "a man of knowledge increases strength." In his letter to the Corinthians, Paul commends them for excelling in knowledge (2 Corinthians 8:7); 2 Peter 1:5 counsels us to add to our faith knowledge. Here at the ROC, we offer suggestions--recommended reading for your edification.  When possible, we've also included publishing information to aid you in locating the book.

 

 

Our recommended reading for this month:

 

 

The Jesus Creed:  Loving God, Loving Others

 

--Written by Scot McKnight
--Published by Paraclete Press; 2004

 

Loving God and loving others are the two most important things a Christian can do--says Jesus himself.  It's a "creed" he himself lived out, and one he would have been raised with.  McKnight shows how this creed challenged and shaped Jesus' family, his early years, and his followers.  A great, quick book you'll thank yourself for reading.
