A beautiful representation of The Books of First and Second Corinthians--a personal and focused rumination on what it looks like to live a life of faith healthily and maturely.
Written like a series of small essays, these letters addresses topics from leadership, to division and unity in worship gatherings, to sexual relations, to interacting with food sacrificed for idols. At its core, Paul is helping Christians in Corinth let go of the more harmful and destructive parts of their culture--and urging them to fully experience the new type of life Jesus is offering. It is an invitation for all of us to be humans of generosity--seeking humility over status, and living fully into the good and beautiful life Jesus intends for everyone. Alabaster's approach reimagines the entire experience of the book. Incorporating images that illuminate the themes and messages of the text, this book will help the reader engage scripture in a fresh way. The Books of First and Second Corinthians in the New Living Translation (NLT) is great for Bible studies, church groups, or individual devotional times. Alabaster creates with the reader in mind--including careful use of negative space, legible typefaces, and layouts that allow a thoughtful exploration between text and images. Alabaster combines thoughtful design, artistic photography, and original biblical texts to create inspiring products for the Instagram and TikTok generation. Alabaster has quickly become one of the fastest-growing private companies in California according to Inc Magazine. Alabaster invites you to lean in and take a closer look at beauty and faith, evoking feelings and thoughtful reflection.Author Biography
