Christians have a long history of believing that the God of the Old Testament is a different, less loving God than the God of the New Testament. Old Testament professors and scholars have come together to paint a different portrait of our changeless Creator--one that shows God's immutable nature of love and compassion demonstrated in every major section of the Old Testament scriptures. From the Pentateuch to the Prophets, Encountering the God of Love offers new perspectives on old scriptures to prove that God was, is, and will always be a God of love. Each contributor brings a unique perspective and personal style to their exegetical methods, making it easy to read this book cover to cover or skip around nonsequentially to study your favorite passages. Use this book in classrooms or small groups to get the most out of the discussion questions provided at the end of every chapter. The authors have also included end-of-chapter bibliographies for readers who wish to explore these passages and the Old Testament God of love even more thoroughly. Contributors for this book include: Brad E. Kelle, Stephanie Smith Matthews, Timothy M. Green, Mitchel Modine, Marty Michelson, Jennifer M. Matheny, Kevin Mellish, Jim Edlin, Stephen Riley, Michael G. VanZant, and Thomas J. King.
