Apocalypse of Mark is a Christian book written in the ancient style of apocalyptic literature and designed to be listened to like a short narrative book one would find in the Bible like Job, Ruth, or Esther. Narrator John Mark presents a linear retelling of the Biblical meta-narrative, heavily quoting from and alluding to the Biblical text. Beginning prior to creation and ending in the "new heavens and Earth" incorporating enigmatic Biblical passages, it demonstrates how they are indispensable to the overall redemption story.

There has been a void where this audiobook should have been. Plenty has been written on the mechanics of writing effective fiction, but story is more than its structure. Christian writers need not appeal to culture. Rather, they can guide listeners through stories that encourage them to become the heroes and heroines that we need. People need to be inspired, convicted, and encouraged, and The Soul of Story does that fearlessly.

Mankind lives in an analog universe, the Physical World, where there is time, gravity, speed, distance, and location. Comparisons and communication of physical properties are the only world we know. Everything is on a continuum, from small to large, from minor to serious, from near to far. Time is our ruler. But God lives in a digital world of right and wrong, good and bad, sinful or sinless. There is no in between. The Spiritual Realm has no time, location, weight, or distance. God, and Christ with Him, can be everywhere at once, God was not created and will not die, there are no ...

Why do we often do what we know we shouldn't, and yet fail to do that which we know we should? It's the power of emotions that often wage war within us, wreaking havoc and confusion that often leads us to sin. Emotions touch upon every aspect of life: family, friendship, parenting, marriage, and all interactions at work and in the church, triggering reactions and dictating how we respond to everyday situations around us.

What do Sherlock Holmes, Star Wars, A Christmas Carol, and Charlotte's Web have in common? Seven identical and profound themes. Actually we use only these four stories as examples of seven inescapable themes, found in whole or in part in every story in every medium from books to movies. I believe these themes are inescapable, not because our culture imposes them upon creators but because they reflect our deepest longings.

Before the beginning, there existed the Holy Trinity; Father Son and Spirit. Together, they called forth the Heavens and the Earth. Heaven was a celestial abode for the Heavenly beings, and Earth, a desolate waste. The first sons of God were the angels, magnificent beings who inhabited the Heavens. There was great joy and glory in Heaven, however, there was one amongst them who would plunge the entire world into darkness.

The Four Loves (1960) by C. S. Lewis explores the nature of love from a Christian theological perspective. Making a careful distinction between “like” and “love", the author first defines the terms. The discussion is based on four Greek words for love: storgē, philía, éros, and agápe. These four types are friendship, affection, erotic love, and charity, or the love of God. Lewis defines each of these types of love and how they affect our lives. Lewis considers affection, friendship, and eros as natural loves, while charity is supernatural since it is closest to the form of love which is defined by the expression “God is love”. Lewis examines each of the four loves in detail, including their benefits and potential dangers.

"Un jour, ils sont là. Un jour, sans aucun souci de l'heure. On ne sait pas d'où ils viennent, ni pourquoi ni comment ils sont entrés. Ils entrent toujours ainsi, à l'improviste et par effraction. Et cela sans faire de bruit, sans dégâts apparents. Ils ont une stupéfiante discrétion de passe-muraille. Ils : les personnages. On ignore tout d'eux, mais d'emblée on sent qu'ils vont durablement imposer leur présence." S. G. D'où viennent les personnages des romans et quel chemin suivent-ils dans l'esprit de l'écrivaine ?

In the beginning it started out with the sins of thy father who fertilized the seed of thy mother.

The greatest purpose of this book is to make clear how incorporating the Bible's teachings, the revealed Word of God, is the best and only way to truly exploit your creative power.

This book is inspirational and spiritual in scope and nature. I can think of no time in human history where the need for God is more apparent than today. This is an offering to the vacuum of plurality...the emptiness of doubt. There is a living God, and he has already come - hope for all mankind. A Savior to save us from ourselves. Do you truly desire to have "a closer walk with God"? Then open your heart to his truth...the living God of Israel herself and his chosen people (our brothers and sisters).
