Jesus: His Story in Stone is a reflection on still-existing stone objects that Jesus would have known, seen, or even touched. Each of the seventy short chapters is accompanied by a photograph taken on location in Israel. Arranged chronologically, the one-page meditations compose a portrait of Christ as seen through the significant stones in His life, from the cave where He was born to the rock of Calvary. While packed with historical and archaeological detail, the book’s main thrust is devotional, leading the reader both spiritually and physically closer to Jesus.

Jesus People is a call to abandon cheap, consumeristic Christianity and recapture the radical and subversive nature of authentic Christianity. It explores the eight Beatitudes and the way each of them inform how we must live and approach our God-given mission in the twenty-first century. "To believe in Jesus is to believe the words of Jesus in such a way that God's people embody God's radiant light in a weary world. With robust Biblical scholarship and a loving pastoral heart, Ryan Post unpacks Jesus' call to a 'holy we' instead of a 'holy me.' When we live in communities that are formed by the Beatitudes the world will look and see Jesus People." -Tara Beth Leach, Pastor and Author of Radiant Church and Emboldened "Taking us deep into the language of the Beatitudes, Post draws out deep truths illustrated by his own experience as a Jesus person and as a pastor. This book is what we need today to grow as followers of Jesus and engage God's good but broken world as the people of Jesus." -Derek Vreeland, Author of By the Way: Getting Serious about Following Jesus "Jesus People is a sweeping and thorough narrative that will move you from despair to dreaming about Kingdom possibilities. Ryan Post has given us something of a manifesto for being the broken but beautiful community we know can exist. This is the pathway forward for our times!" -Dan White Jr., Developer with the V3 Movement & Author of Love Over Fear "The most pressing questions we can ask as followers of Jesus are, 'Where is Jesus going?' and 'Are we going with Him?' Ryan offers us wisdom for answering these questions, responding to the summons of Jesus, and then taking the necessary steps." -Mark Chironna, Lead Pastor, Church on the Living Edge, Longwood, Florida "History shows how surpassingly difficult it is for Christians not to forget Christ. We need constant reminding that we are called by the Spirit to live the same cross-bearing, enemy-loving, God-fearing life that he lived. Thankfully, Ryan Post's book does precisely that, directing our attention not to Jesus as we imagine him but to Jesus as the Gospels present him to us." -Chris E. W. Green, Professor of Public Theology, Southeastern University, Lakeland, Florida

As well as telling parables and stories, giving teachings on how to discern questions of ethics and human nature, and offering beatitudes for comfort and encouragement, Jesus also spoke words and flung insults that followers then and now have found difficult, to say the least. He instructs disciples to hate members of their own families (Luke 14:26), warns that unending fire awaits some people, says body parts should be cut off if they offend. He calls a foreign woman a ‘dog’, the Jews ‘offspring of vipers’ and his closest disciple ‘Satan’. Preachers often gloss over these or avoid them altogether as they are still so shocking. In The Difficult Words of Jesus, Amy-Jill Levine sheds vital light on understanding these by exploring how these sayings sounded to those who first heard them. She reveals Jewish modes of expression, humour and the long tradition of Jewish insults and what they mean, and how we might interpret these sayings today within a gospel of love and reconciliation.
