Algunos acontecimientos de la historia de la iglesia, como la reforma y el gran despertar, han sido similares a los eventos descritos en el libro de Esdras y por los profetas Hageo y Zacarías. Cuando un remanente salió de Babilonia y regresó a Jerusalén con los vasos del Señor, restauraron el altar, pusieron las bases, y reconstruyeron la casa del Señor.

1) Why Apemen Never Shaved by Mike Riddle: With all the news about "Lucy's daughter" being found, you would think evolution was well defended...not so! Mike takes apart the theory and completely dismantles the Lucy findings. Great info! 2) The Intricacies of Flight by Andy McIntosh: Andy, Professor of Thermodynamics and Combustion Theory at the University of Leeds in Great Britain, is one smart cookie. Better yet, he is an awesome communicator and shows you there is no way on God's green Earth that birds could learn to fly via evolution. Witty.

We all have something that keeps us from living fully for the Lord, but Christ wants us to give our baggage to him so we can follow him freely. In Pack Your Baggage, Honey, We’re Moving to Paris! Anne Farnum explores the different kinds of baggage we carry. She also focuses on the baggage that King Saul hid behind and compares it to that which David left behind to run toward the giant.

How well do we know the most famous book of all time? The Immoral Bible offers a critical look at the morals of holy scripture, and argues that they're not all they're cracked up to be. At once honest, provocative and witty, James Rauthner guides us through the Bible's most famous stories, in both the Old and New Testaments, and lays bare their bad ethics and terrible advice. He demolishes the notion of the Bible as a moral guide, proving that the "Good Book" is much more likely to lead us astray than teach us to be virtuous.

2064 details a 50-year strategic plan to establish Islamic Shari'ah (a divine legal framework) under the leadership of a rightly guided global Caliph (head of state). Non-Islamic desires that are predominant in the world’s secular societies have led to social, economic, and moral degradation. 2064 provides a strategic framework to reverse troubling socio-economic trends from an Islamic perspective.

What does the Bible say about third millennium prophets? What’s the difference between being a prophet and being prophetic?

The Prophetic Path is a powerful discipleship resource, not only for emerging prophets but also for all who would be prophetic!

In Invited, Bible teacher Christen Price weaves together personal stories with a practical party-planning handbook as she shares her own struggles with perfection when she moved home and began to build community. Her desire for perfection causes her to experience anxiety and melt down when parties (and life!) don't go as planned.

Lester Stephenson stresses that Christians must recognize the importance of the Bible that Jesus and the apostles used. Each time Jesus and the apostles used the phrase, "it is written" they were using an Old Testament passage to illustrate a New Testament principle. In A Biblicist View of Law and Gospel, Stephenson advocates a biblicist view based on careful Bible study to explain how Christians are to view the law and the way the testaments fit together as an inspired whole.

Does motherhood matter? Have we lost our sense of identity, especially through social media, which can pour both accolades and acid into our hearts and minds? Does our role as a mother have any lasting purpose? What about the hard stuff? Do we self-medicate more than we self-motivate to fight for our families? If we don't have a sense of purpose, how will our children? Chimene Shipley Dupler believes you are created for more. You are created in the image of God. You have value, significance, and purpose. You are chosen!

All Karrie wants is to fit in, but growing up in an alcoholic and abusive home does not make that easy. Her struggles take up most of her energy, and while her church seems to be aware of the violence in her homelife, they are uncertain as to what actions they should take. Karrie has questions about Christ’s suffering and how it relates to her suffering which the adults in her life don’t seem to understand. When she is removed from the only life she has ever known, she feels as if her life will unravel as she tries to hang on to her Christian faith in the foster care system.

The historical Jesus of Nazareth is arguably the most influential person ever to walk on the face of the planet Earth. For the past 2,000 years, thousands of books have been written about him, and yet no book has been written about the mechanism by which the eternally existing God—the Christ—became Jesus, the man in the flesh. This book precisely explains this mystery by looking through the prism of the scientific discipline of genetics.

Is your heart touched by the emotional distress, mental illness, hopelessness, despair, addiction, fear, anxiety, uncertainty, and fatigue that characterize our day? Within the foundations of despair and hopelessness is the cry, “Can someone help me? Can someone call on God for me?” God is not deaf to the cries of this generation—He created you with this generation in mind. He is counting on you to step out and meet the needs of this day and age. He has equipped you for the difficult times ahead. Allow God to guide and work through you. Display His splendor to those around you.

To some people, saying that David had a godly heart is almost offensive. How do you apply that description to a man whose legacy includes neglecting responsibilities, lust, adultery, murder, deception, hypocrisy, and callous indifference? Saul, David’s predecessor as king of Israel, was guilty of deliberate rebellion, but Scripture gives no account of him ever engaging in the kind of disgusting activity that characterized David’s behavior during his sin with Bathsheba. Yet Saul, when he sought forgiveness, was rejected. What made David different?

Jesus’ parables. They are widely known–or at least often referenced. But does that mean they are well understood? Having slipped into the lingua franca of our day, we could be missing some of what He was communicating. If familiarity breeds contempt, perhaps our sense that we know these stories insulates us from what Jesus was saying about life with God.

REASONS is Jack Nelson's companion to his book REACHABLE: How Indigenous Missionaries Are Changing the Face of Missions in which he argued that indigenous missionaries are uniquely qualified to reach people who are unreached with the Good News of Jesus Christ. In REASONS, which is somewhat of a prequel to REACHABLE, the author backs up and answers the question, "Why should this matter to me and every other Christian?

Dr. Ricky Challinor’s book, Not a Hint, spotlights the purity God desires us to have, but even more importantly, it empowers us with an understanding of our spiritual identity in Christ. Embracing this identity gives us access to the biblical promises and principles that motivate us to WANT to live on His Isaiah 35:8 Highway of Holiness!
