It isn't easy being a man, especially in a culture that often denigrates men, and where so many children are now born without good male role-models. This handbook is intended for such men looking for a role-model, for men looking to be better at being Godly Men, and for women looking to know what a Godly Man should look like. More than anything, this book is about knowing the One who is the perfect, generous, loving man - GOD Himself. "Tov Rose fills in the gaps of God the Father," said respected television host Sid Roth, of It's Supernatural! "The church has emphasized God the Son (Jesus) ...

The letters of the Apostle Paul are central witnesses to the Christian faith and to the earliest history of Christianity. And yet, when students, preachers, and others turn to Paul, they find many things "hard to understand" (2 Peter 3:16) in these ancient writings. James Prothro's new book aims to help listeners see the Apostle's faith and hope at work as he evangelized the nations. Steeped in up-to-date scholarship and a passion for the gospel Paul preached, Prothro draws listeners into Paul's life and letters in order to help them hear the Apostle's voice.

What’s going on in the world? Why does it seem like everything is going downhill? How did we get here? And what does our future look like? Are there “invisible” hands behind a curtain pulling the strings? How does God figure into it? How does man? Or Satan? Knowing the beginning, how it all began, gives us a clearer picture and makes it easier to understand why we are now in this state and where we are headed next.

In this iconoclastic and provocative work, leading scholars Israel Finkelstein and Neil Asher Silberman draw on recent archaeological research to present a dramatically revised portrait of ancient Israel and its neighbors. They argue that crucial evidence (or a telling lack of evidence) at digs in Israel, Egypt, Jordan, and Lebanon suggests that many of the most famous stories in the Bible - the wanderings of the patriarchs, the Exodus from Egypt, Joshua’s conquest of Canaan, and David and Solomon’s vast empire - reflect the world of the later authors.

The theme that ties all of James' thoughts together is a demand for reality in your faith. He insists faith shall be proven or tested by works. Character should correspond to profession. "Practice what you preach". He provides for us a series of tests in which we can examine and measure the faith we profess. James is straightforward, simple, specific, and extremely challenging. In fact, there are more imperatives in this book (54 in 108 verses) than any other epistle. James, like his brother Jesus, will challenge us in this study to begin thinking about the world in an entirely different ...

You are not beyond hope. You are not too far gone. You are redeemable. Redemption isn’t just a theological idea—it’s the heartbeat of God’s love story. In Redeemed: God’s Unfolding Story of Love and Restoration, pastor and storyteller Geoffrey Schmitt guides readers on a journey through Scripture, testimony, and reflection to explore what it really means to be bought back, restored, and made new. From the cries of enslaved Israelites in Egypt to the whispered hope of Ruth and the relentless love of Hosea, from the foot of the cross to the empty tomb, and from your own story to the...

Each of us possesses an innate source of guidance: our power of intuition. Unfortunately, we are rarely trained to tap into this wisdom, and it’s often misunderstood. Author Happy Ali aims to change that.

From Genesis to Revelation, the image of the shepherd stands as one of the most enduring and beloved symbols in all of Scripture. Shepherds in the Bible: The Shepherd’s Way takes you on a thoughtful journey through the lives of biblical shepherds—from Abel and Abraham to David, the prophets, and the Good Shepherd Himself, Jesus Christ. Through engaging teaching, rich meditations, personal reflections, poetry, and practical questions for study or discussion, Geoffrey Schmitt brings the shepherd theme to life in ways that are deeply meaningful and spiritually enriching. Whether you’re a...

Cultural conceptions of Jesus today present a man who is virtually unrecognizable. He is not known, above all, for whom he loves or how he loves. In contrast to this misconfiguration, the Jesus of the Gospels is far more beautiful, and loves more broadly and deeply, than many have imagined. The humble, suffering love of Jesus is uncanny, radiantly beautiful, and in the end transformative. There is nothing like it across the religious landscape or current ideological offerings. In Jesus the Stranger, Ken Collins invites the listener to see Jesus in a new way.

Alexander Scourby was the first to record the King James Bible on audio in the early 1950s. Since then millions have been sold the world over. Although many have recorded the Bible over the years, no one could ever match Scourby's unparalleled and majestic reading. The combination of Alexander Scourby reading the King James Bible is an incomparable hearing experience. The Chicago Tribune wrote that "Alexander Scourby has the greatest voice ever recorded."

In the early centuries of Christianity (first to fourth century), the composition of the Bible was not fixed, as letters and manuscript were often kept separate, and different communities had different collections of texts. Many letters and sermons of the nascent Christian church in the first few centuries were persevered, even though they were not included in the New Testament.
