Our world and our churches are neither sinful nor lost, they are dead. This dead world is the one that God engages and into which Jesus invaded with a radically different vision of life.

In this groundbreaking work, based on his 211 Yale Beecher lectures, Brian K. Blount helps preachers effectively proclaim resurrection in a world consumed by death. Recognizing that both popular culture and popular Christianity are mesmerized by death and dying, Blount offers an alternative apocalyptic vision for our time--one that starts with a clear vision of life that obliterates death and reveals life's essence. Blount explores the portrait and meaning of resurrection through the New Testament (the Book of Revelation, the letters of Paul, and the Gospel of Mark) and explores how to biblically and theologically reconfigure apocalyptic preaching for today. With three illustrative sermons, this book is an ideal resource to help preachers proclaim the power of resurrection.

Great buy
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Definitely recommend. My new rescue has chewed though I can’t even tell you how many “indestructible” toys in under 10 minutes. Not this! We’ve had it a few days and she loves it. Hasn’t chewed through it at all and it literally keeps her busy for an hour at the minimum. Would buy again. Great quality for the price and made to last. Perfect for aggressive chewers.

Great for Slowing Down Snack Time
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
My dog, an English Lab, is a voracious chewer, and destroys most toys in a matter of seconds. He also swallows most snacks without even chewing, and finishes meals in record time. It takes him about 20 minutes to get everything out of the Kong, and since I hide it somewhere on our property, he also takes several minutes to find it. He seems to really love the challenge, and it’s nice to have him take more time with a snack. I tried the Kong Easy Treat to seal the toy, but I find peanut butter works just as well (especially when frozen after being filled and sealed), and it’s cheaper and easier to use.

This product actually lives up to the title of indestructible.
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging, Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
This is the only toy I've had which my dog hasn't destroyed in minutes. I have had a few others that will at least last a few months, but Kong extreme has held up over the years. I like the fact that I can stuff it with treats, bits of other "indestructible" toys and seal it up with peanut butter, then pop it in the freezer to give her an extra 15 minute challenge. I have a couple so I can clean one while she's busy with the other. This size seems to be the best for a ~90lb. dog, the large end being roughly the same size as a tennis ball, which she loves as well.

Great product but choose a size or two up
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Nice quality toy for long lasting and engaging play! One star docked for the sizing—I don't usually expect to need an xl anything for my 45lb border collie but he cant even fit his canine teeth into the large size to ease the jerky reward out in "hard" position but "easy" position he doesn't even tough the toy just grabs the jerky. Got an XL and it has been great for the jerky both easy and hard positioning. The larges I keep around for liquidy and frozen treats to keep the mess contained and they work very well for that.
