A key foundation on which religion is based is the omnipotence of the Almighty; and one of the most universally recognized earthly reflections of that omnipotence is the story of Moses: His battle with Egypt's Pharoah for the freedom of his enslaved people; Pharoah's initial refusal, triggering Divine intervention leading to the ten plagues on ancient Egypt; the fiery presentation of the Ten Commandments: and finally the parting of the Red Sea, as the Israelites were ultimately led to "The land of milk and honey." The Passover Haggadah is the script for the Seder - the telling of the story both leading up to and subsequent to those monumental events, those magnificent moments in biblical history. It is presented here not only with complete explanations of Seder traditions and customs, but in the style of verse unique to Dr. Marks.

Just like everyone in the story of Jesus' birth, we each have a unique path when it comes to finding our way to God. Some paths are long, arduous and uncomfortable like the very pregnant Mary riding the donkey to Bethlehem. Some are joyous like the shepherds' race into town after their encounter with the angels. Some are thrust upon us like Joseph in a time of crisis. Suffice it to say, there are a lot of ways to the manger - a lot of ways to God - but they all end at the same place - in His presence. " Way to the Manger" is a daily guide through Advent to help you along your way to His presence.

"A new Nativity experience for families to read and perform as a sing-along of beloved Christmas carols with text by New York Times best-selling author Jason F. Wright and music by the woman called 'America's violinist, ' Jenny Oaks Baker. Told in two parts, the book begins with an adaptation of the narration and music from the stage production of Joy to the World: A Sacred Celebration by Jason F. Wright and Jenny Oaks Baker. In it, a shepherd named David takes us on a sacred journey that celebrates the Nativity through beloved carols and scriptures. The text can be read alone or used as a script for performances with family, friends, book clubs, or church groups. Sheet music to beloved Christmas carols is accompanied by QR codes of instrumental audio tracks performed by Jenny Oaks Baker & Family Four. Part two of the book invites readers to become witnesses of Christ by adopting five of His attributes (benevolence, forgiveness, patience, prayerfulness, and faith), each accompanied by timeless wisdom and thought-provoking insights by New York Times best-selling author Jason F. Wright and supported by scriptural passages. Wright also includes five true stories of people who have embraced each of these attributes. For example, one woman used Jesus's attribute of forgiveness to reconnect with her absent mother, resulting in a heart-warming miracle for both mother and daughter. This large-format, full-color, illustrated Christmas gift book is a must-have holiday keepsake for music lovers. "--
