Wright's full-scale works The New Testament and the People of God, Jesus and the Victory of God and The Resurrection of the Son of God are part of a projected six-volume series titled Christian Origins and the Question of God. Among his many other published works are Surprised by Hope and Simply Christian.

Book Synopsis

So often our faith feels small and weak. But as premier Bible teacher N. T. Wright reminds us, what matters is not so much our faith itself as Who our faith is in. Wright doesn't ignore the messiness of life. He opens to us what faith means in times of trial and reminds us, it's not great faith we need: it's faith in a great God.
