Zion Lutheran Church in Tomball, Texas invited Dr. Rod Rosenbladt and Craig Parton to speak at the 2009 Apologetics Symposium. Their assignment was straightforward: define the apologetic task and give the bedrock foundation for an easily understood defense of the Christian faith.

With the exception of Dr. John Warwick Montgomery, there are no more eminently qualified and experienced men to address this topic than these two men, and they both hit grand slam home runs with these lectures.

Several of the attendees at the Symposium told us that these were the best lectures on the subject that they had ever heard. One gentleman told us he had been studying apologetics for twenty years and these (and one by Mr. Parton, in particular) were the clearest, most powerful lectures on the subject that he had ever heard.

While the debate rages in some quarters as to whether the United States is/was a Christian nation, it is beyond question that the Christian faith played a huge role in forming the ethos and culture of our country.

American Angels is a collection of a capella hymns and sacred music from various times in our history. Many of the songs you will recognize as old favorites, others you will hear for the first time.

The Word of God is foundational in the life and knowledge of the Christian believer, and Scripture memorization is a core spiritual discipline.

New Reformation Press in conjunction with Dr. Rod Rosenbladt has developed a new topical Scripture memory study tool to aid in this discipline. These Bible flash cards are arranged doctrine by doctrine - such as the attributes of God, the doctrine of Christ, the doctrine of man, sin, salvation and many more - all with the pertinent verses on the opposite side. 220 Scriptures in all.

The Bible is a big book! Actually, it is a mini library consisting of sixty-six individual books. Either way you look at it, the central theme of the Bible remains a mystery to many people. This need not be the case. In the Bible in an Hour audio presentation, veteran Bible teacher Wade Butler will be your guide as he takes you on a panoramic journey through the Scriptures.

Many people know all of the stories in the Bible, but have no idea how they all fit together. It's like they have a string of pearls all loose in a bag, but have never seen the whole necklace. It's like they have all the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, but have never seen the top of the box. Bible in an Hour will show you the way the pearls are strung together, and finally, finally, you will see the top of the box. -Wade Butler

New Reformation Press is proud to offer this new rendition of the ancient Chi Rho symbol. This T-shirt is another in our series designed to bring the richness of our Christian heritage back into our culture. It proudly proclaims Christ Alone.

The Chi Rho, often referred to as the ‘monogram of Christ’...

A defining doctrine of evangelicalism is that salvation is through Christ alone. This Today's Issues booklet defends the background and necessity of that doctrine in the face of modern theological attacks.

In our postmodern, pluralistic world, there are plenty of genuinely spiritual people who consider Christ a way to heaven, or even their way to heaven, but who refuse to acknowledge Him as the one and only way for everyone.

Finally, Christian Christmas cards that are properly focused on Christ and scripture!

We here at NRP have been working hard on concepts for Christian greeting cards which most Christians would be proud to buy and use. Have you been looking around in local stores and online and simply can't find much of anything which is truly Christ-centered and delivers the good news of the Gospel?

Us, too.

And so we're very proud to release our first greeting card, one of many on which we're currently working. This Christmas card, with cover art designed by Tim Baron, refocuses attention away from the "new-ness" of contemporary designs and styles back towards something old and reverent.

For those of you who have been interested in reading the Lutheran Confessions, but don't want to pay full pop for the hardcover edition, and don't know someone you can borrow it from, your problem has been solved.

The new Pocket Edition of the Book of Concord contains the complete text, and a Scripture reference section, all in a truly pocket sized book at an economical price. This is a genius idea. Now you can give them as gifts or buy enough for a study group or Sunday School class.

The Book of Concord should be in every Lutheran home. If a person isn't familiar with this book, he'll think, "That old book is just for pastors. I don't have to preach. After working all day, I can't sit down and study in the evening. If I read my morning and evening devotions, that's enough. No, that is not enough! The Lord doesn't want us to remain children, blown to and fro by every wind of doctrine; instead of that, He wants us to grow in knowledge so that we can teach others.
- Dr. C.F.W. Walther

Nothing is more important than clearly confessing and bearing witness to the truths of God's Holy Word which reveal the glorious Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This is what the Book of Concord is all about. This edition of the Lutheran Confessions will instruct, inspire and educate all who use it and help them learn what it means to be, and to remain, a genuinely confessing Lutheran Christian.

Featuring Dr. James Nestingen

Are confession and absolution archaic notions which we've outgrown? Are they simply parts of a stodgy, old and outdated church?

Or are they still just as necessary and, dare I say it, relevant as they ever were? Maybe even moreso?

What are confession and absolution? What do they do and what do they mean?

With beautiful symmetry and theological significance, this low-profile and comfortable headgear displays the classic Luther Rose with style and grace. Encircled by three of the five “solas”, the front of the cap boldly proclaims Grace Alone, Faith Alone, and Scripture Alone. What a great way to share central tenets of the Christian faith and invite opportunities for spontaneous discussion and encouragement. The back of the cap features a small, yet smartly placed "newreformationpress.com" near the bottom of the rim.

One size fits most.

A classy way to display your baptismal brand. Our polo shirts feature high quality embroidery displaying the "VDMA" symbol which began to be worn in the years surrounding the defense of the Gospel against Rome in the 16th century.

The "VDMA" standard ("Verbum Domini Manet in Aeternum", latin for "The Word of the Lord Endures Forever") stands out elegantly on the left chest of our polos, sure to be an attention-getter.

Luther's commentary on Galatians is considered among the finest of all time. Abridged and stylistically adapted for today's readers his astounding work is part of Wipf and Stock's Crossway Classic Commentaries.

For hundreds of years Christendom has been blessed with Bible commentaries written by great men of God who were highly respected for their godly work and their insight into spiritual truth.

Blended with practical application, this in-depth exposition on the doctrine of vocation encourages Christians to seek God in their jobs and fulfill their calling to glorify Him in all that they do.

When you understand it properly, the doctrine of vocation—"doing everything for God's glory"—is not a platitude or an outdated notion.

If you're looking for a heavy dose of guilt and shame, then you've come to the wrong place. Does your struggle with sin ever cause you to question your salvation? Is there an area of your life that is totally out of control? Has the perfect standard of God's law brought you to the brink of despair?

Take heart. You are not alone. The conflict between law and grace has permeated Christendom for centuries and continues on to this day. The acrid smoke rising from the battlefield has even clouded the minds of some Christians to seriously contemplate; "Is Christ's death enough to save even a sinner such as me?"

This audio recording of the Catechism, which includes the Six Chief Parts from Luther's Small Catechism, the Daily Prayers, Table of Duties, and the Christian Questions with Their Answers, is a powerful devotional, instructional or memorization tool.

A wonderful devotional or personal study aid, this recording includes the Six Chief Parts from Luther's Small Catechism, Daily Prayers, Table of Duties, and the Christian Questions with Their Answers and the six catechetical hymns by Martin Luther. Also included is Luther's hymn, "Lord, Keep Us Steadfast in Your Word."

Written by Martin Luther in 1529 in question and answer format, the Small Catechism explores the Six Chief Parts of Christian Doctrine: the Ten Commandments, the Apostles’ Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, the Sacrament of Holy Baptism, Confession, and the Sacrament of the Altar. Also included are daily prayers, a table of duties for Christians in their various callings in life, and a guide for Christians to use as they prepare to receive Holy Communion.

Luther intended the catechism to be a prayer book for individuals and families and a powerful tool for the Christian life because it provides a brief, clear summary of God’s Word on the essentials of the Christian faith.

Additional reference material includes: books of the Bible; the creeds and confessions; an explanation of Luther's seal; an explanation of the church year; fifty terms relating to worship and God's House; a brief history of the time between the testaments; an outline of God's salvation plan; and fifty Christian symbols and their meanings.

From Martin Luther's Letter to Two Pastors Concerning Rebaptism.

In ever more increasing numbers, Christians who were baptized as infants are having themselves rebaptized as adults. But is a second baptism really necessary? Could it even be harmful?

The great reformer Martin Luther addresses these questions in this short work—freshly translated from German into modern English—and in the process outlines the basics of baptism. It is a must read for anyone contemplating their own rebaptism, or the baptism of an infant.

Formatted into 14 simple chapters along with study questions, this 88 page book is perfect for personal devotion or Bible study.

From Martin Luther's On Christian Freedom

Luther’s short work as you have never read it before!

Newly rephrased into bite-sized sentences, and recast into 16 short chapters with study questions, this revised and expanded 2nd edition is perfect for personal devotion and Bible study use.

A great introduction to Lutheran theology and practice.

What is the core meaning of Article IV of the Apology of the Augsburg Confession? That salvation comes by grace through faith, Christ's righteousness imputed to us sinners solely on account of His death and resurrection.

Our Martin Luther coffee mug is a wonderful daily reminder of exactly what the core of the Lutheran Reformation was all about.

This small volume of devotional prayers—a translation of a book of 45 prayers—was penned by Johann Gerhard (1582-1637), a prolific writer, professor, pastor, and one of the great Lutheran theologians during the golden age of Lutheran Orthodoxy, while he was in his early twenties.

When you see the beauty and eloquence of these prayers, you will realize there are few people these days of any age that can write or pray like this.

Bishop Sadoleto wrote to the Genevans and urged them all to "return to the church" and Calvin replies.

A paradigm of Biblical argumentation, Calvin focuses on (1) the two irreconcilable plans of the sinner's justification before the holy God, and (2) on the question, "What is the true church, and how exactly is this established?"

Luther's famous response to all who would take Jesus' "Words of Institution" in any other way but what they look like.

After stating his own argument concerning these words, he contrasts it with the "fanatics'" interpretation of them. He responds to Zwingli's claims, and to those of Oecolampadius. He next sarcastically reformulates their arguments using other words.

One of Luther's best. He tries to defend two seemingly contradictory propositions: (1) The Christian is perfectly free Lord of all and subject to none, and, (2) the Christian is the dutiful servant of all (his neighbor). In doing this, he does a great job of expositing what Justification is (as opposed to sanctification).

J. Gresham Machen was the Presbyterian giant who taught at Princeton during the time of B.B. Warfield—another giant.

During that era, Protestant Liberalism "ruled the roost" of almost every seminary in America. It was, as usual, presented as "the thinking man's version of Christianity." Those who did not "line up" with it were subjected to various insults, disparagements of intellect, and all the usual pejoratives. Machen had gone through the virtual loss of his own Christian faith when doing doctoral work in Germany and had had to cognitively fight his way back. Of course, the same thing goes on for students today. Only the names have changed.

Luther chides his readers, if they are papists, for complaining about the "re-baptizers" when, in a sense, every papist is a sort of Anabaptist! He argues that these people do not deserve to be so lamentably murdered, burned and tormented to death.

He notes that, there remains much that is Christian and good under the papacy (Scripture, Baptism, the Supper, the Keys, the ministry, the content of the Catechism, etc.), so if the Anabaptists are justifying everything by "not doing what the Antichrist does", they are simply wrong.

A detailed tracing of the beginnings of the post-World War II "evangelical movement" in (1) the Church of England, and (2) in the U.S. After explicating the state of evangelicalism and the players in the drama (again, in both England and the U.S.), he traces "blow-by-blow" how it has become almost entirely vitiated in both countries.

Murray does not shrink from naming names (some of these stories shocked me, because they centered on men who have sort of been on my list of "heroes!") He also takes very great care, as he describes the self-destruction of "evangelicalism" in both countries, to give space and time to the brave ones who spoke out "against the tide" (e.g., Edward John Carnell, Dr. D. Marty Lloyd-Jones and Francis Schaeffer).

Calvin's Institutes of the Christian Religion has a place within the canon of the Great Books of the Western World. It is beyond dispute that Calvin's Institutes changed Protestantism for 500 years – and is still doing so! What began in 1536 as simple catechetical booklet grew into a massive magnum opus in 1559. This final edition is outlined here.

The first book of Calvin's magnum opus is arguably the finest piece of theological writing in church history; even an honest Arminian would have to agree. It excels in eloquence, ingenuity, and influence.

Here, Calvin discusses the knowledge of God, how it relates to human nature, the role of the Holy Spirit in the creation of faith, how Christians should approach theology, and how sin affects the human intellect.

The second book is extremely important because it provides a foundation for Reformed perspectives on human nature, especially the enslaved will.

By now, readers should have noted that Calvin follows the outline of the Apostles' Creed. God the Son is the focus of this portion of the work. Those with a background in churches that have difficulty making sense of the "old covenant" should find Calvin's thoughtful approach to the relationship between the Old and New Testaments fascinating.

In the third book, Calvin's focus turns to the Holy Spirit, as seen through the perspective of the economy of salvation.

Most readers interested in the Institutes will be seeking to understand the distinctive theology Calvin lays out in this book, especially his doctrine of predestination (III.xxi). Nonetheless, one should note from the outline that before discussing election, Calvin considers other doctrines which are essential to evangelical thought.

As most good theologians, Calvin concludes his theology with reference to points mentioned toward the end of the Apostles' Creed.

First, he describes his model for the church - one that differs markedly from the hierarchical model developed during the Middle Ages.

Reformation folk are often charged with "having no doctrine of sanctification." To answer this charge, Lutheran theologian William Hordern writes his masterful little Living by Grace.

Much of the book is analysis of why so many of us Christians "measure Christianity" this way. It is to be expected of the non-Christian, because our behavior is all he or she notices (if he or she evaluated by doctrine, he or she would likely become a Christian!) But a lot of the charge traces back to Rome and to Wesley, so the issue is all too often within the circle of Christianity more than it is an issue to the non-Christian (with the exception of the theme that "...the church is filled with hypocrites.")

Dr. Hordern doesn't have a Biblical view of Scripture's inspiration and inerrancy, but you can just "read over" such paragraphs. On what the Reformers called "the material principle [the Gospel]," he is extremely insightful.

Martin Luther really 'got' St. Paul and this is premium, 200 proof St. Paul! Luther called the letter to the Galatians, "the Magna Carta of Christian Liberty". Dr. Rod Rosenbladt did a close reading of Luther's Galatians commentary over the summer of 2011 and outlined the preface and first four chapters. The videos are a must see. These are the accompanying outlines written by Dr. Rosenbladt from which he created the lectures.

The free previews of the four main chapters which Dr. Rosenbladt provided for the lectures are available in our Freebies section.

Whether you are a life long student of scripture or a newbie, this one's for you; we all need to get excited about how good the Good News of Christianity is! The death of Christ saves!

Dr. Pinnock wrote this book decades ago, when he believed much more than he does these days.

He divides the book into five types of apologetic arguments for the truth of the Gospel: (1) the Pragmatic basis for Christian faith, (2) the Experiential basis for Christian faith, (3) the Cosmic basis for Christian faith, (4) the Historical basis for Christian faith, and, (5) the Community basis for Christian faith.

Bishop Butler's Analogy of Religion, Natural and Revealed (1736) was an important work of Christian apologetics. The deists of his century had argued, "Scripture is filled with nothing but problems! The 'Book of Nature' contains every doctrine that Scripture teaches, but it is founded on science are not on a book of fables, a book filled with contradictions and gross moral errors!"

Butler took this on with his Analogy of Religion. The "analogy" of which he spoke was the one between the so-called "two books of revelation": The book of Nature and the book of Scripture.

This book is a French Calvinist's defense for the Reformed practice of infant baptism. I think that most "truly Reformed" men in our day would say that Marcel's treatment is a fair representation of Calvinism's position on the doctrine? (Were this not the case, I doubt that the late Dr. Philip Edgumbe Hughes of Westminster Theological Seminary (Philadelphia) would have given so much of his time to do the work of translating it.)

The Case for Christianity is part of C.S. Lewis’ World War II “Broadcast Talks” and is one of the first of the three books that now comprise Mere Christianity. The other two books of Mere Christianity are Christian Behaviour and Beyond Personality: Beginning Steps in the Doctrine of the Trinity.

Zillions of English-speaking Christians owe their eternal lives to two books: Holy Scripture and C.S. Lewis’ The Case for Christianity.

Did the apostles and the earliest church, when called for, cognitively defend the Gospel as true or no?

This is for those Christians who accuse you of being an "intellectual pointy-head" when you argue that some non-Christians need to converse with us regarding the truthfulness (or lack thereof?) of the Gospel claims.

Originally an Inter-Varsity monograph in small booklet form, The Evidence for the Resurrection tackles basic arguments against Jesus’ resurrection from the dead, offers a Christian response to these, and a positive defense of Jesus’ resurrection having actually occurred.

Anderson was a missionary to Muslim lands and later became a professor of law, particularly of Islamic law. It is short, but argued as a lawyer would argue the case.

See also Dr. Anderson’s Jesus Christ: The Witness of History.

A study in the 17th-century Lutheran dogmaticians, with whose writings (in Latin!) the late, great Confessional Lutheran professor/pedagogue was more familiar than any other man of his century.

A tour de force on the subject of the inspiration of the Bible, complete with detailed use of the key verses.

The classic work by the contemporary of Luther, compiler of the Book of Concord and author of the massive Examination of the Council of Trent.

Careful analysis of key passages and with the respect that a lawyer would employ in exegeting someone's "last will and testament" - an image that Chemnitz uses regularly for these last words of the Lord Jesus.

This little Inter-Varsity classic has been republished more times than a person can count—and for good reason. Clear, readable, definitive and written for the interested layman (and his friends!) Absolutely the opposite of "for specialists only."

The back of an old copy has the following text: "Fact or fabrication? Christianity is founded upon historical events. If the claims and life of Jesus Christ are mere fabrications, Christianity collapses. Since the New Testament is the primary historical source, its reliability is a crucial issue in any discerning evaluation of Christianity. This book presents in readable form the results of modern research and sound historical scholarship."

From the 1950s, pre-Vatican II. This book lays out the basic argument as to why you should convert to Romanism. It will have you pulling out your Visa card to buy your airline ticket to Rome.

This is not so much a polemic against "Protestants" as it is a positive description (by a very intelligent adherent) of the historic Roman Catholic theology. The book is a good resource for the searching layman, but of profit for clergy, too.

"The classic statement of orthodox Lutheran Christology. Demonstrates how the Christology of the Reformation agrees with Scripture, the ancient creeds, and the church fathers... Dr. Preus provides notes at the end of each chapter, indicating the location of quotations in available and modern editions." (publisher's catalog description)

A masterpiece by the great contemporary of Luther. This work has been called "the second greatest work on the person of Christ to come out of the Western church" (second, of course, to Athanasius' On The Incarnation of the Word). A paradigm combination of Reformation exegesis and theological prose.

As a theological student in Finland, Dr. Saarnivaara became interested in the question of Scriptural baptism. Which baptism, he wondered, had the most authority: the one a person received in infancy, or the one received as an adult after a conscious conversion. Should he, as one who had been baptized in infancy, be baptized again, after his conversion, in order to be a Christian in the Biblical sense, or was the baptism he received as a child valid?

For the Christian, it can often be difficult to reconcile being both sinner and yet righteous by faith. It is a dichotomy that can truly seem so contradictory as to not even be possible. But yet, being baptized into Christ's death and resurrection, the sinner is declared blameless, Jesus' righteousness being imputed to the sinner's account for Jesus' sake.

Our lion design focusing on Dr. Martin Luther's "Simul Iustus Et Peccator", or "At Once Justified and Sinner", shows the tension of the difficult, yet true, state for the Christian believer. But rather than focus on the believer himself, this design re-focuses the concept of "Simul Iustus" back to Jesus Christ and the cross.

This shirt bears one of Dr. Martin Luther's most well-known phrases, "Simul Iustus et Peccator" or "At Once Justified and Sinner" (also commonly translated as "Simultaneously Sinner and Saint").

Being baptized into Christ's death and resurrection, the sinner is declared blameless, Jesus' righteousness being imputed to the sinner's account for Jesus' sake. This concept of justification is the core of the Gospel rediscovered in the Reformation of the 16th century.

This is the perfect resource for congregations, and parents, to use as they prepare for a child's Baptism. Pastors will want to give a copy of this book to every family having a child Baptized, and parents will want this book in order to more fully understand the gift of Holy Baptism.

Inside is useful information such as the Scripture's teaching about Baptism, a look at the Baptism service, and everyday activities that can be done with a child to help him/her after the Baptism.

The Conservative Reformation and Its Theology provide the definitive nineteenth-century statement of the unique theological identity of confessional Lutheranism as researched and explicated by one of the era's greatest theologians.

This powerful critique of American Christianity chronicles the spiritual pilgrimage of one man and provides a defense of the pure Gospel.

This unique book is divided into two parts. First, a spiritual autobiography of the author, describing his journey from unbelief to American Evangelicalism and Campus Crusade staff work, to his true home in the Lutheran church. Secondly, a hard-hitting critique of shallow, pop-style worship and theology, The Defense Never Rests sets forth a Lutheran approach to apologetics (the defense of the faith to unbelievers).

This great devotional is a work of genius. It utilizes Luther's Small Catechism and the Church Year and weaves them together to create a rich devotional tapestry that draws you into the rythms of the Christian Life.

After a small but very useful chapter on how to use this book, and a simple explanation of the Church year, the book dives right in with the complete texts of Luther's Small Catechism and the Nicene and Athanasian Creeds.

(Pack of 10)

Creeds have been used by the church since its very beginning. The New Testament Scriptures contain many primitive creedal formulations. Showing that, from the time of the Apostles, creeds have been an important part of the Church’s heritage. One use of creeds is as a confession of faith for those being baptized, which explains their three-part division into articles on the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The Apostles’ Creed is an example of a baptismal creed.

Another important use of creeds is to combat heresy. In the early 4th century, a priest named Arius taught that the Son was not God in the same way that the Father was God.

In this presentation Pastor Butler examines the significance of the Tabernacle and the Ark of the Covenant as a prophetic picture of the person and work of Christ. The parallels to Christ and His ministry are highlighted and drawn in high relief against the background of both the Old and New Testaments.

The ministry of the priests is compared and contrasted to the ministry of Christ.

Year after year the priests entered from outside the Tabernacle to perform the prescribed washings and sacrifices. From there they would enter the Holy place to burn incense on the altar, place the loaves on the table of the showbread, and tend to the lamp of God. Once a year the High priest would enter the holy of holies, the most holy place, to sprinkle the blood of the sacrifice on the mercy seat, the covering of the ark. It is Pastor Butler’s contention that Jesus made the same journey, only He did it in reverse order, from the holy of holies to outside the tabernacle.

After a journey of years through a variety of religious experiences and frustrations with mysticism and eastern religions, liberal theology and social justice programs, and several branches of Christianity, Dr. Gene Veith found answers in Christianity and specifically with "the first evangelicals [Lutherans]."

Theologia et Apologia gathers together eighteen essays, written by a wide range of scholars, on Reformation theology and its defense. Orthodox theology, grounded in the Scriptures, calls humanity to believe. This same theology must also be presented and defended to a world that has often not attended to its vital message.

This comprehensive Lutheran resource brings together Scripture readings, prayers, psalms, hymns, and devotional readings from the church fathers to guide daily prayer and meditation on God's Word.

Organized around the Christian Church Year, Treasury of Daily Prayer is designed to be an all-in-one resource for daily devotions for individuals, families, and small groups.

The deluxe edition has a durable sewn binding, bonded leather cover, gilded edges, and a 6-ribbon bookmark to help organize your daily prayer and devotion.

• Dark Green = marks the Church Year calendar section
• Gold = marks the current day in the Church Year
• Red = marks the order of prayer you are using
• Purple = marks the additional prayers you may choose to use
• Light Green = marks your place in the Psalms
• Blue = marks "Prayers for the Baptized Life"

The Treasury of Daily Prayer has been receiving rave reviews from many different sources in varying denominations. This is simply a fantastic resource, something many people have searched for for a long time. But don't take our word for it...

The Word of God is no stranger to attack. Ever since the Garden of Eden, God's word has been under siege. The first question recorded in Scripture is when Satan asked Eve, "Did God really say...?" (Genesis 3:1). People today are still questioning God's word.

Instead of the Bible being granted the basic dignity of being considered innocent until proven guilty, it is unashamedly considered by many to be guilty until proven innocent. However, in spite of centuries of turmoil and aggression brought against it, the word of the Lord stands firm forever. As the psalmist rightly declares, "Your word, O LORD is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens." (Psalm 119:89).

It is no small thing that Jesus washed the disciples' feet, as recounted in John 13:8. There are some who compare the washing of the feet to the washing we sinners receive in baptism, though Jesus mentioning that the disciples were "already clean" makes others question the accuracy of such a connection.

Lutherans often get accused of having no doctrine of sanctification.

As hard as it is to believe, some would rather focus on their good works rather than on what Christ has done for them, putting the cart before the horse, as it were.

To this the true Lutherans have always confessed that good works are the fruit of their salvation and that Saint Paul strongly encourages us to look to Christ, rather to our good works. (Hebrews 12:1b-2a, let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith)
