*** NEW REVISED EDITION *** 1ST PLACE READER VIEWS LITERARY AWARDS: RELIGION *** WINNER READER VIEWS REVIEWER’S CHOICE AWARDS *** 4.5 ON GOODREADS ADULT CHILD ABUSE: Child abuse that did not end when adulthood began. The continuing victimization of grown children by their abusive or controlling parents, siblings, or family members.

Narcissistic ...

Leading Bible scholar John Dominic Crossan, the author of the pioneering work The Historical Jesus, provides new insight into the Christian culture wars which began in the New Testament and persist strongly today. For decades, Americans have been divided on how Christians should relate to government and lawmakers, a dispute that has impacted every area of society and grown more rancorous over the past forty years. But as Crossan makes clear, this debate isn’t new; it can be found in the New Testament itself, most notably in the tensions between Luke-Acts and Revelations.

Life is a story. A good movie or book places us “in” the action. We feel like we can relate to, and understand the characters. We cheer for the hero and disdain the villain. Two-thirds of the Bible is written in historical narrative—stories about people. Jesus taught using stories. The stories in the Bible are replete with drama, mystery, and even humor. Like popular movies and novels, Bible stories have intriguing plots of love, friendship, betrayal, competition, murder, and war. Yet, many times they seem boring and we have trouble relating to the characters. Through first-person ...

Who was Jesus? Historical sources portray a person who was complex, multi-layered, and often contradictory to the tidy portrait that much of modern Christianity paints him as. Even the gospel accounts render him as both judge and healer, teacher and temple, servant and savior. A Doubter's Guide to Jesus is a persuasive and often challenging investigation into the historical figure found in the earliest sources. These sources, which include references both direct and indirect - from Roman, Jewish, and Christian accounts - offer us more than simple evidence that Jesus existed.

Biblical History of the New Testament is a book of history, not theology. The purpose of this book is to not only provide a historical narrative of Jesus’ life and that of the early church, but also to do so in a way that reconciles the apparent discrepancies among the four gospel accounts while maintaining the chronological order in all four gospels.

Reincarnation is returning to Western study. This renewed interest has come about as a preponderance of scientific evidence suggests the precepts of mainstream theology and the materialism of secular humanism - concerning life after death - need reexamining. Additionally, biblical and secular history shows many fine minds, majorities of ancient Judeo/Christians, and even America’s founders had held the belief. Their wisdom still lives and still imparts a timeless enlightenment for today: That we live in a cause-and-effect world of reason, purpose, free will, and most importantly, Divine ...

This book (Approx. 154,172 words in length -- 113 Chapters) contains many of my book titles on the subject of Holy Bible doctrines from a fundamental Christian faith perspective.

It does that by immersing listeners in the life and culture of two thriving first-century towns—Pompeii and Herculaneum. Those towns (destroyed in the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 CE) act as showpieces of the world into which the early Christian movement was spreading.

🔥 A man consumed by lust. A soul marked for destruction. A debt only God can collect. Elias thought he was untouchable.

Until the spirits he once commanded turned against him. Now marked for judgment, Elias is about to learn what it truly means to reap what you sow. Every door he once opened to gain power now threatens to drag him under. His lust has become a prison. His pride, a curse. And the only ...
